Good hotel for a short stay
Pros:

Great location close to a Metro stop. Good breakfast with lots of choices.

Cons:

There was no where to put anything in the bathroom, such as toiletries. The main room was large but empty, nowhere to sit, no extra space to put things.

Good option close to the metro and Lausanne station
Pros:

Location is good and the room was fine for a short stay

Cons:

The theme and decor is a bit disconnected to the room decoration. It was clean but nothing outstanding, I’d expected a chocolate at least as a small present

Pros:

Very nice ambience. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. There is a discounted price for a nearby parking lot.

Cons:

Breakfast was very basic for the price, and half of the food was next to the reception desk, which was weird

Ottima posizione e ottima accoglienza
Pros:

Ottima la posizione per raggiungere il centro della città. Con la vicina fermata della metro si possono raggiungere anche punti più distanti della città (ad esempio il lungolago). Personale gentile e accogliente.
