One of the better options in Leysin. The fully-staffed front desk was a deal-maker- check in from 3pm-11pm. I'd almost booked another place until I noticed the rules for check-in on most nearby lodging is only between 4pm-6pm. The staff here is great and on site most of day. Good pool & great view. The buffet restaurant is very convenient (not many options in town) but there's better food nearby. Very happy with my stay.

Overall, had a good stay
Overall, we had a good stay as a family with a small kid. If I were to point out a few things, half-board meal in the evening could have been improved as the variety was very limited and the bathroom also needs a good renovation.

Fun Alpine hotel in cute mountain town
This was such a fun hotel up on the mountainside! We had a room with a great view of the valley. The room was very comfortable, although there is no air conditioning and we were a little warm at night even with the windows open. We had a room that could sleep 5, although there were only two of us. The beds were comfy and their was plenty of bedding. The pool was fabulous, and we enjoyed the jacuzzi and saunas. The little town was just down the hill, and the train station was about a five minute walk away. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We would stay here again.

Beware
We booked on 2nd June 2018 for a week 020219 till 090219. All seemed well on arrival and up till Monday when the hotel became a youth hostel. We went for our evening meal at six thirty pm to be told due to the children it was 7.30 . The corridors were just extensions of the rooms on the 7th floor we had to ask teenagers to move to gain access to lour room. We complained as we had felt the room was small , but to put two 58 year old gents on the top floor with adolescent children seemed unfair we were then told the whole hotel was full of Children. We think it very bad form to allow this to happen and would warn other persons booking for a week of their peril. Had we had any idea at all that a hotel would become a youth hostel we would never have booked. We do not believe any adults on a holiday would choose to stay at a hotel given over to children and feel betrayed that we were not given the chance to make an informed decision. The hotel has to decide is it for adults with families or are they ......as it appeared to us just filling space with no regard to other guests. The food at the weekend was better than in the week when for weekend guests standards rose . We would not use this hotel without written promise that it was acting as a hotel and not a youth hostel . The staff were pleasant and helpful but the problem is a management problem what member of the management who allowed this to happen would stay in a hotel with such a concentration of children .

Last minute booking
Booked last minute and this was by far the cheapest option available in the Leysin/Villars area. Ended up with a family room with a bunk bed as well as the two single beds. The room was large and clean, the bathroom was nice, and the view from the balcony was great.

Great village, great hotel.
Great location with a really good view. The hot/wet saunas were great after a day of skiing. The lift is about 250m down the road. The buffet food for both breakfast and dinner is what really put this place over the top in our opinion. The raclette dinner was superb, as was the service. Management is pretty clearly on top of things to make sure the details are attended to. My daughters loved the dining area, including the cows in the ceiling. My wife and I like the woodwork and the copper in the dining area. We will return. They even have a bibliotek (library) for guest use. Now, I want to try going back for a summer stay. If you are driving, be ready for a lot of switch-backs on the road heading up to Leysin.

We had a wonderful stay at hotel Central Residence. The location was beautiful although we were a bit unlucky with the weather that day. It was tooo misty and cloudy, so we couldnt enjoy the full beauty of the location. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We arrived at the hotel very late (22:00), we were very well received. we had booked an apartment for 4, it was a very beautiful apartment, very clean and well equiped. Overall we had a great time!

Great Facilities..Great Views..Great Staff..
I was travelling with my young kids and wife. We had a great experience. Kids loved the swimming pool and sauna facilities, along with jacuzzi. Me and wife liked the accessibility from Geneva and Montreux. There is enough to keep you and family occupied. The staff was extremely helpful (esp Receptionist Alexis). One thing they can improve on is options for Veg food. But then its Switzerland..I am hoping too much :)

A quick trip to a magical village
We had one night to visit Leysin, where I attended high school in the 60's. The town has changed imperceptibly, and so remains magical... The hotel was very Swiss...clean, efficient and beautiful views. My only comment would be for a coffee maker in each room..or at least free coffee in the lobby. Otherwise, though not luxurious, a very fine stay.

The staff is wonderful. We had booked a meal, we arrived quite late and the staff arrange a very generous box-lunch for all to have our meal. Really wonderful. The place is in a beautiful location and although the hotel is not new, it was a great choice.
