Find the Cheap Veytaux Hotels

The staff members are one of the best people in this industry! Genuinely friendly, kind, and extremely helpful. Don't be afraid to chat with them. They like to chit-chat and joke around. It's a really adult friendly, kids friendly environment. Untop of this, the hygiene is 10/10! The rooms, toilets, badrooms, and wash rooms are clean. The breakfast/diner, halls are clean. The breakfast and diner are more than okay to start and end your day with. Everything is prepared by the lovely staff of the hostel. Ps. They're master chefs. They just won't admit it... The hostel is located at the lake of Geneva, and the area is beautiful! It's totally worth it to take a morning or evening walk. It's a very safe environment, and people of Montreux will say hello or even start to talk to you. I stayed for 4 days, but if I knew this was going to be this great, I would have booked a few days more! Really recommend this hostel! 👏🏽

We had a fantastic stay at Hôtel du Grand Lac Excelsior. The first thing that struck us was how helpful and friendly the staff were, nothing was too much trouble for them. The hotel itself was clean, there were areas that possibly could be updated, like the carpets in the corridors, but I'm being picky there really, because it didn't affect our stay, and the overall decoration of the hotel was beautiful. We stayed in a suite and it was perfect for our family of four, it was comfortable, with two bathrooms, a sliding door onto the garden, and it was very cosy. The location is the real drawing point, eating breakfast at a window with views of Lac Léman and mountains was breathtaking, I've never had such a beautiful view when eating before. My 5 year old daughter said it was the 'best day of her life'! High praise from this family, and we can't wait to return!

This hotel is not worth ONE star! The so called ”breakfast” is cheap food in old buffets and a dark, dirty room. THREE old PIECES of cheese and formed ham, as cheap as animal food, is NOT a breakfast, that is simply FRAUD! NEVER TAKE THIS AS A HOTEL!!! It is a kennel on street level. Without blends in front of the window, with damaged bath-insides and damaged furniture insed. It is a CHIZ to every custumor expecting THREE stars! We had THREE little dogs with us, and they charged 45 CHF for ONE room to clean, which was NOT clean before! (I got enough pics of that situation!) We were charged with 248 CHF for a dirty, hot, MOULDY room, CHEAP bread in the morning, a DIRTY and DUSTY dining facility and an extremely unfriendly ”manager”. NEVER again! Deutsch: Dieses Hotel ist KEINEN Stern wert! Das sog. ”Frühstück” bestand aus BILLIGEM Brot, spärlichem Massen-Aufschnitt, INDUSTRIEGEKOCHTEN EINGEFÄRBTEN Eiern, und ALTEN AUFGEBACKENEN GEBÄCKSTÜCKEN. Jede Jugendherberge ist sauberer und macht ein Bufett, wie angekündigt. Das war KEINE 2 CHF wert! (Fotos vorhanden!!). Das Geschirr, wie die Vorlege-Utensilien waren alt und kaputt, der sog. Speisesaal staubig und muffig, das Brot vom BILLIGSTEN WAS MAN SICH VORSTELLEN KANN! Wir haben für 3 Hunde für eine ANGEBLICHE Reinigung von EINEM Zimmer 45 CHF bezahlt!!! Für DREI Stücke ALTEN KÄSE, FABRIKWURST, BILLIGTOAST, aufgewärmte, zusammengesammelte Backstücke und eine UNTERIRDISCHE Atmosphäre dort 52 CHF!!! Für das Zimmer mit VERSCHIMMELTEM BAD, SCHRANK, ohne richtige Beleuchtung sowie KEINE Gardinen- EBENERDIG ZUR STRASSE!!! 160 CHF!!! DAS IST EINE DER MIESESTEN ABZOCKEN UND ABSTEIGEN, DIE ICH JE ERLEBTE!!!!!

The room is not big or small, and the single room is quite comfortable for one person. There are many windows and the scenery outside the small window is also good. When checking in, Miss Sister also sent a glass of wine, which was very ritual. It was very tired when looking for a hotel, because it was a climb, but it was very easy from the hotel to the pier (downhill), and it was also very good to walk all the way to the lake, and enjoy the scenery along the lake to the pier. The uncle who checked out the next morning was also enthusiastic. In addition to the price is a bit high, it is a good choice.

Here are the key points of my feedback: Room Setting: The view of the room is nice and antique. However, I did not quite understand why the sink were separately located at the corner of the room instead of inside the washroom. Dining Experience: My dining experience at the hotel was satisfactory. If there was hot food available in the morning, it would be much better. Amenities and Facilities: While the hotel's amenities and facilities were functional, I observed signs of wear and tear throughout the property. Investing in the upkeep and modernization of facilities could significantly enhance the overall guest experience.

The services of this hotel are not 4-star. Inexperienced and incompetent staff, customer interaction is completely to be reviewed. Little clarity regarding parking availability, bungling staff in general, with communication problems. When we returned to the hotel at 6:30 p.m., 2 of the 4 rooms in our group had still not been redone--and since the cleaning staff had already finished for the day, we had to keep the rooms that way. Unacceptable in a 4-star hotel. Shortly before midnight, upon our return after dinner we are told that 1 of the 4 keys was not left at the front desk when we left for dinner--we are sure we did leave the key, the key fob is really heavy and no one would keep it in their pocket rather than deposit it at the front desk. After much discussion, we are finally given the spare key with the recommendation not to lose it and with the notice that the lost key will be billed to us. Well, in the morning the key is in its slot, we find out that it was a mistake by the staff who had placed it elsewhere by mistake.... No comment. All this is why I think this hotel does not live up to its 4 stars, despite the fact that the building is wonderful and well renovated and its location superb. We did appreciate the refund of 75.- for each room to make up for the inconveniences. Still, mistakes are understandable, what is not understandable nor excusable is the way we were addressed by the staff (when it was not even our mistake!).

The location of The Freddie Mercury Hotel worked well for us. Despite being nearly attached to the Montreux train station, it was set back from the main road and on a quiet street in the centre. Very easy to walk everywhere in Montreux from the hotel. There is underground car parking (EUR25/night and best to request when reserving a room), but the entrance is a bit tight into the car elevator and large cars / vans would have difficulty maneuvering even in the parking garage. The quad room on the 4th floor was very spacious! A large king sized bed, plus two twins, plus a sitting area with two chairs and a small sofa. All felt very clean and like a modern “boutique” style hotel, though the shower room felt slightly too small for 4 people. (The toilet was in a separate room.) We were told there was “no AC but all the rooms are ventilated”, but it stayed cool enough with the metal electronic metal blinds down during the day so we didn’t need the AC. There’s also a desk area along the window…over looking the train tracks. Even number rooms faces the train track and odd number rooms face the lake. The hotel is a new training facility for the nearby hospitality traininig school. Hence, the more reasonable prices in an area where hotel stays can be quite pricey. Despite the “Freddie Mercury” name, it’s really more just some photo history of Freddie on the walls and not much else. Still, the hotel offers a very good value in terms of its quality and main services. Breakfast (EUR18 per adult, EUR9 per child) each morning was served until 10am. Buffet style, nothing fancy, but there was always a good selection of cold meats, cheeses, salads, cereals, yogurt, breads, croissants and whole fresh fruit. Along with hot options of eggs and hashbrowns, plus coffees, juices, and a water refill pump. We had the pleasure of meetimg Mr Zampetti, the hotel manager, and Swift, the front desk manager. Both were very professional and pleasant in sorting out an issue with one of our rooms. We loved the Montreux experience and would definitely stay at the Freddie Mercury hotel the next time we visit…for its quiet yet convenient location, its value for money, and for the courtesy of its staff.

Hôtel très charmant, avec une vue magnifique sur le lac Léman et les montagnes autour, service impeccable et resto excellent 😋 Nous avons pris le repas du soir avec une fondue classique et une fondue au champagne et à la truffe 😋 puis en dessert une tarte à la framboise et un dessert à la pomme façon Cédric Grolet 😋 La vue sur le lac Léman et les montagnes autour était époustouflante, même quand il y avait du brouillard car nous étions dans les nuages bas. La literie est très bien et les équipements sont bien adaptés. Le service était impeccable avec un personnel agréable, convivial et humoristique également
