Our usual spot to stay for the Montreux Jazz Festival; great location literally 3 minutes walk from the convention centre and balcony views of the lake. However, beware is it very noisy until 3am during festival fortnight.

We drove and had a parking spot directly outside the front of the hotel. Upon arrival I asked if there was any upgrades to our original room which the hotel accommodated for a small fee. We was blessed with perfected weather and had an excellent view of the lake which made great memories

The hotel has magnificent views of the lake and mountains. Situated on the edge of the lake makes it easy to walk along the shore. Particularly good for access to the Montreax music festival in July. The lakeside junior suites are spacious and provide a full width view of the lake.

The location of the hotel is excellent and overlooking the lake.
The hotel and staff were very good. We had an issue with our tv and they sorted it out for us.
My only downside was the jazz festival. After booking we were pre warned that there maybe noise disturbances from the set up which was fine and not an issue. The restrictions of the festival walking along the water and having to go up to the main road was frustrating. But the noise disturbances on the evening when the festival started wasn’t the best.
I would say if you’re looking for somewhere to stay in Montreux 100% yes but avoid the festival unless your specifically going for the Jazz festival.

The hotel was amazing right by the lake and we had the most fabulous views of the lake and mountains. The room was very spacious and the temperature was great lovely and cool when coming in from the heat of the day. Very clean and well kept. The bathroom was big with a powerful shower which we loved. Great choice of restaurants/bars within the hotel. The pool was a great experience with jacuzzi changing rooms sauna and steam room. The staff were great so friendly and helpful especially Vincent who looked after our bags when we checked in early as our room was not ready. We explored the area while waiting for our room. The hotel is in a perfect setting. We just had to walk out the back of the hotel and we were right along the walkway by Lake Geneva with the mountains in the background. Plenty of restaurants and bars along the way. We also had free travel within the area with the Montreaux Riviera card given to us from the hotel. We used it for the bus to the Chillon castle and in the opposite direction to visit Vevey. It was so handy and the bus stopped outside the front of the hotel. There’s plenty of shopping too in the area. I would definitely recommend this hotel as it is very convenient to everything. It was absolutely beautiful. It’s not the cheapest hotel but I think you get what you pay for. Worth it for the views alone we stayed in room 706.

This hotel room was magical! Loved the double doors going to the balcony that overlooked Lake Geneva! Spacious, clean, comfortable, well thought out room that just couldn’t be better! The decor was beautiful and the lobby is just breathtaking! Staff were amazing and treated us very well! The food for breakfast was lovely and the outdoor seating was amazing for breakfast and the bar (which we ate at mostly) We found the food in the main dining room a little expensive (especially with the Canadian exchange rate) but in line with most of Switzerland! The beautiful promenade to Chillon Castle is right off the back patio! We utilized our Montreux Riviera card for the museums and transportation to Vevey which we were very appreciative to have! What a beautiful stay in a beautiful city! Thanks for a wonderful memory!

Superb location, stunning views from room and reception, excellent service and facilities. Nicolas at the reception made our stay super special, with his great personality. We observed him making each guest feel valued and special. Nothing was too much trouble and a wealth of information was given to us to make the best of our short 2 night stay. Hotel was next to bus stop, and direct access to the lake side promenade too. Room was very clean, very comfortable beds, amazing shower and a fridge. Loved the shutter for windows and the awnings that cover the balcony in sunnier times.
Improvement needed: minor maintenance issue of the power plug cube being broken off its stand on one side of the bed and night stand shades need tightening. 2 coffee pods per day for 2 people in a room is not generous at all, especially when you charge Chf 4 per extra capsule.
That said, we had an outstanding stay and the only regret was we were not staying longer.

A 4.5 rating would be accurate. The room was spacious, clean and tastefully decorated. But....the bathroom seemed to need updating....fixtures seemed old and worn.

Bed was firm and linens of good quality. View from the patio overlooking Lake Geneva I'm sure would be stunning....in better weather.

Some carpeting and public areas in serious need of freshening and/or replacement.

Had dinner in the Sinatra bar and the breakfast buffet in the restaurant. Service and food were both excellent...and the areas were very nice.

I loved this hotel and loved Montreux! It's a beautiful town (though very expensive, like all of Switzerland). The room was spacious and comfortable with a gorgeous view from the balcony and the bathroom was also spacious. The breakfast was pretty good with decent options.

This hotel is on near the end of the Montreux lake-side path so it's a long - but very pleasant - walk to Chateau de Chillon. I love walking though so that was a perk for me.

Would absolutely recommend this hotel and would stay here again.

The hotel was in a good location. Our room nice and spacious with lovely lake views! However the bed was very very hard. This may suit some people, I guess it’s down to personal preference,
On checking in to our room, realised our in room safe wasn’t working, we rang reception who sent a member of staff up in a short time, she clarified there was an error with the safe, we were told a technician would sort it the next day. This did not happen, not ideal to have no real secure place for expensive watches and passports!! Wasn’t given any apology or solution either.
The real dissatisfaction came on our last evening, when I realised we only had coffee sachets green or camomile tea, I rang reception asking for a couple of English breakfast teabags…. Our flight was very early the next morning, so wouldn’t be having breakfast which we had paid for as part of our holiday package…
Reception rang back to tell us we had used our allowance for the room and we would be charged for extra teabags!! Despite not using the coffees sugars or other condiments,, regardless we were told in a rude manner we were t entitled to a couple of teabags. I was pretty disgusted to be honest,, the male staff on shift at that time was very dismissive and unhelpful. ( not all staff were like this tbh)
So our 5 o clock start to the day was without a hot drink.. for a 5 star establishment I was very surprised at their treatment and attitude towards hotel clients. The hotel was quite unorganised and chaotic!

Ok but smoking smell

Old school and old building. Excellent location and views, spacious rooms, fine service. The amenities were ok. The main issue is smoking. A non smoking hotel that hands out matches in every room, what do you think it’s going to happen? If you’re a smoker it’s for you. For me it was always an exercise in opening the windows to get the smell out of the room and close them quickly when the suicidal monkey next door smoked in their balcony

We had a lovely 3-night stay at the Royal Plaza Montreux. It was an easy walk from the Montreux station (also easy to get a taxi if you have a lot of luggage and don’t want to walk).
We walked to the Christmas market, which was wonderful!
It was also an easy walk to the shopping district, which had tons of shopping and restaurants.
In addition, the bus was super easy to use, goes right by the hotel, and takes you to shopping as well as Chillon castle.
The hotel breakfast on the main floor was lovely, with plenty of options. The hot buffet on the lower level was also very good with a ton of options.
But perhaps the best thing was the gorgeous view of the lake and the mountains from the hotel lobby!

I was in many 5 star hotels around the world but this hotel is not one. I was in this hotel almost 50 years ago and then it did look like a 5 star hotel. Nothing in the hotel is updated since 50 years ago. Everything is OLD, except a few paintings and lights. Carpet, curtains, closets, and many more things are dirty. I even complained about the black mold in the shower walls and no one did anything about it. This hotel at most is a 21/2 star. I was told by the manager of the hotel that owners know about the fact that hotel is old but they do not want to upgrade it.

We were very well welcomed to the hotel by the reception staff. Our hotel room was pleasing especially the small balcony with the views of the lake and the mountains despite the ongoing building works. The breakfast selection was excellent and the dining room staff have to be mentioned because they exuded warmth and hospitality.

Unfortunately our stay was spoilt by the fact that the cleaners forgot to clean our room on two occasions on the first we had to bring it to the attention of housekeeping and only then did it get done late in the afternoon. On the second occasion our room was not cleaned at all and we were in too late to mention it to housekeeping staff so for example beds were not made but more uncomfortably bins were not emptied. When we mentioned it to housekeeping on the day we were checking out house keeping staff said that perhaps it was not done because staff were busy with other rooms and reception made a similar excuse. Whilst that may be the case it does not detract from the fact that we paid the same money for a non-service. Hate to complain because everything else was exemplary but a better system needs to be put in place so that none of your guests are neglected and all of them get the same value for money service.

A lovely hotel, super clean, air conditioning, nice hot water, modern facilities. Staff at registration spoke excellent English. Wonderful grounds with easy access to the Montreux Jazz Festival, which is why I came here. This really is a paradise with one caveat folks: they are building a massive structure literally next door. Work starts promptly at 7am and ends at 5pm. The room was so quiet I didn't hear anything. But, if I sat outdoors on my balcony I could watch them work, which was quite interesting. I had a lake view, which was pure heaven. There's a good span on the premises, and an indoor pool. I will stay here again on my next trip to Montreux!
