Royal palace
Pros:

Such a beautiful hotel right in the center of the city. The location was amazing, and the room had one of the most beautiful views I’ve seen.

The room was spacious, comfortable, and the service was wonderful from the moment we arrived. The whole atmosphere felt so elegant and luxurious, it honestly made me feel like I was staying in a royal palace.

Beautiful room and spa at the Fairmont in Montreux
Pros:

Beautiful hotel with a beautiful spa and view. The weather was not in our favor so we spent some time at the indoor pool and spa. It happened to be a holiday week for the families in Europe so there was a lot of children at the pool but there is a quiet room for adults only if you so desire. we were only there one night but it was comfortable and beautiful.

Smoke on the Water, Snow on the Peaks
Pros:

There are hotels you stay in, and hotels you remember. Fairmont Montreux falls firmly into the latter.

The setting is magical—Lake Geneva in front, snow-capped Alps beyond, and a promenade that invites long, lingering walks. The staff, especially the interns, brought a warmth and sincerity that made us feel genuinely welcome.

Not everything was perfect. Our lower-floor room missed some of the grandeur the views deserved, basic toiletries were absent, and a ceiling leak near the entrance persisted for most of our stay despite being reported.

Yet somehow, the memories that endure are the good ones: jazz drifting through Funky Claude’s Bar, a superb “Smoke on the Water” cocktail in hand, and the timeless beauty of Montreux outside the window.

Imperfect, memorable, and easy to fall for.

Smoke on the Water, Snow on the Peaks!
Pros:

Spectacular Alpine and lake views, warm and enthusiastic staff, and a superb location. Funky Claude’s Bar, live jazz and the Smoke on the Water cocktail were unforgettable highlights.

Cons:

A persistent ceiling leak and missing toiletries detracted, but the memories prevailed.
