Mona Montreux

Mona Montreux

8/10 Good
"You cannot beat the location. Very close to the train station and right on the main walkway that lines the lake. While I have read others rave about the breakfast, we did not feel the same way. 30CHF was a bit steep. While there was a wide selection of food - pancakes, an egg station, cheese/meet and fruit, we thought most of the prepared food didn't taste that great, just lacked seasoning, but I guess to be expected from a buffet. I think if you are going to get breakfast from here it is almost better to order stuff individually or find a cafe nearby. Other than that, the staff were all very nice, the free coffee, water, candy and popcorn station was a hit with our son and we enjoyed being able to step right out of the hotel and walk down the pathway along the lake."

"Staff is great, amenities are lacking. One would think smart tv’s would be everywhere, allow you to log in to watch tv. Old TV’s, poor channel selection, and ok mattress, not very comfortable. No parking nearby, if you have several bags you will struggle getting them to the hotel. Currently construction in front and they have parking agreement with parking garage however it is one use per day. If you plan on going out, stay gone for the day, they will only allow one validation per day for 20CHF."

"A nice hotel very close to the lake. Rooms were a little dated but clean and beds very comfortable. Only real downside was how close the hotel was to the main road but with lake views and the ability to swim every morning it was well worth it."

"This is a quirky hotel which has very interesting Freddie Mercury memorabilia on display. The location is perfect if travelling by train as it’s at the end of the station platform! We walked down to the lake, which is stunning and also into the quaint old town. Our room was modern, spacious and very clean and comfortable. The staff at the hotel went above and beyond to help us. We really enjoyed our stay here. Thank you"
