Zimmer gut für eine Nacht, Erholung muss man hier nicht suchen
Pros:

Super nahe am Bahnhof, beim Gleis 1 auf gleicher Höhe erreichbar und bequemer Zugang. Netter Empfang und einfache und schnelle Abwicklung des Check-Ins. Zimmer sauber und gut. Einrichtung dürfte besser sein.

Cons:

Es fehlten Steckdosen, die Betten waren viel zu weich und schief zum Liegen, keine Sommerdecke, keine Klimaanlage, sehr lauft bei offenen Fenster, war die einzige Möglichkeit etwas kühleres Zimmer zu bekommen. Da die Bahn vor der Türe durchfährt, 7/24, viel Lärm, insbesondere die Schnell und Güterzüge waren sehr laut, aber auch das Bremsen und Beschleunigen war sehr störend,

Comfortable hotel with pleasant staff.

Close to train station and easy to explore Montreux. I have stayed here before.

What a great hotel!
Pros:

Wow, what a great hotel. It was well decorated and furnished giving a very modern and fresh look. The staff were extremely helpful - they were able to identify a parking space in the garage despite the initial feeling being that it was full. This enormously helped transferring my wife in her wheelchair.
The breakfast was great with a many options and variety.
Access to the lakeside was very straightforward via the city lifts - the exact location having been pointed out by the staff.
I would certainly stay here again and recommend to friends and family.

Cons:

Nothing.
