Location, location, location! The best thing about the hotel is the location on lake Geneva. Literally steps away from the swim and tanning deck and walking path. Literally steps away from the metro that takes you up to the train station.

They provided a Lausanne travel pass for free rides on the metro (although no one ever checked for a ticket).

Our room was nice and large, and the shower was nice and strong. The air conditioning was a bit weak, but that’s typical for Europe in general.

Great location for summertime visitors!

We stayed in a tower queen suite. Room was large but was very dated both in decor and tiredness of furnishings. Lobby decor was horrendous (awkward and tacky). Staff in the lobby were always too busy and not very helpful. Bathroom entrance had a trip hazard lip and the tub/shower combo was hazardous, messy and uncomfortable for taking a shower (a bath was the only practical option). BC of the inconvenience of the shower and constantly tripping on entering bathroom, I would not stay here again. No glamour at all in staying in this room. Windows very small. We did love the hearty breakfast on the pretty patio facing the lake and enjoyed some time at the quiet outdoor pool, though the pool is in an enclosed garden with no view of the lake. Best part about this hotel is that it’s lakeside and across the street from the subway, which is very convenient.

Access to the room was way upstairs. The elevator doesn’t go to their 4th floor -looked like the cleaning storage area… We only had contact with receptionists. My car was opened and the property that I had inside was stolen while parked in the property’s parking overnight. The subway is near and it seems not to be uncommon for thieves to be in the area. The property have security cameras and they were able to see the thief on the video. I ended up spending my day at the police station.

A hotel in the heart of it all

This hotel is in the heart of it all in Lausanne, right on the lake, close to the Olympic Museum. So what comes with the territory is it feels cramped and noisy. With the public transportation being as good as it is in Lausanne, I would prefer the next time staying farther away from the hustle and bustle. Parking at this hotel is a pain --- even if you purchase parking, the number of spots is limited.

The room was clean and tidy as was the whole hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful.
The pool area, although small, was a beautiful spot to relax and swim.
We did not eat at the hotel as we felt it was very expensive, but we knew this would be the case in the area. There were plenty of local restaurants to chose from.

Perfect Stay in Lausanne - Chateau d'Ouchy

This was an amazing hotel in a beautiful location. We were here for a couple of days at the start of a longer European journey. This was the first stop after getting off a morning flight to Geneva. After we arrived by train from the airport, we arrived at the hotel early, so they took our bags and gave us some ideas on what to do that day. Our top things were the vineyard hike and the castle in Montreax. We received our complimentary pass and off for the day.

When we returned later that evening, we received our keys and headed to the room. And wow!!! We had a lovely room with a balcony and an amazing view of Lac Lemon with mountains in the background. This was everything my girlfriend wanted for the experience. The slippers and robe were a great touch as well as the mini-bar being free with some orange juice, soda, water and Heineken.

There is a nice outdoor pool and my girlfriend lover the sauna. The restaurant was excellent and we enjoyed a 3 hour dinner in style. G

Great location, great hotel, and will stay there again next time we're in Lausanne

Lausanne is not a big town and the hotel is in the best part of the town. Directly on the lake and just a few steps away from the free tram that takes you up the hill to the \"old town\", maybe a 5 minute trip. The hotel is definitely a 4 or 5 star accommodation. The building is unique and historical but renovated to feel like a new facility. The rooms and bathrooms are comfortable for European standards. Breakfast was great, we did not have dinner at the hotel. Stayed in 2 rooms, 2 nights with day trips to Bern and Luzerne. My wife did have a very minor exchange 1 morning when asking the reception where the closest church was and the woman responded that they can not discuss religion. So that was a bit petty and weird.

Quite disappointed in the attitude of staff. This is an expensive hotel. We had spent 5 hours in Switzerland when we found out our house was flooded and had to return as my elderly mother was there alone. Understand that the hotel was non refundable but we asked if they would provide breakfast in the morning so we could quickly get to the airport and they refused. Would a coffee and croissant have hurt them that much when they had a room they could resell for 2 nights or at the least not turnover. They might have been right in terms of the contract but did they do the right thing? Absolutley not.

Wonderful stay

Our stay in this historic hotel was wonderful. We booked a superior room with a lake view since we were only staying one night and decided to splurge! We arrived at the hotel before check in time and were delighted to get upgraded to a larger room with the lake view. This was the largest and nicest room that I’ve stayed in anywhere. The room had separate bathroom (toilet and sink) and bathing room (large bath tub / separate shower stall). Bathrobes were provided along with plenty of towels. All the fixtures were high quality and in perfect condition. All beverages in the fridge were complimentary. The beds were very comfortable.

A word about Lausanne, the last city that I selected for our Swiss vacation. It is a beautiful small city with a spectacular cathedral. I greatly enjoyed experiencing the city’s culture and diversity. I hope to return to Lausanne and would definitely stay at Chateau D’Ouchy again.

Overall we really enjoyed our stay, however the design of the shower is terrible. It is impossible to take a shower without water getting everywhere in the entire bathroom. No curtain, one quasi glass panel that did next to nothing to stop the slash of water exiting the shower. That is literally the only complaint we have, otherwise it is a lovely place. The staff was wonderful, our massages were great. And we love the area.

Wonderful experience!

I selected this hotel for being very close to the waterfront, and for not having carpeted floors in the bedrooms (I have a thing against carpets in hotel rooms, specially very old carpets). Although price wise it was a bit on the high side for me, but it was completely worth it. I checked in a little after 01:00 am and the man in the front desk was very helpful, polite, professional, fast, kind. I'm very grateful for his excepcional service. I was very happy with the kettle in the room which made it possible for me to make my own tea whenever I wanted.

Good location on the lake with ample restaurants though the best shopping/eating was more in the center of town (long, steep walk up the hills). Biggest disappointment was the VERY HARD BED. The hard mattress appeared cheap as well, not expected at a relatively expensive hotel. Because of this we would not stay again. Otherwise beautiful hotel, great views, responsive staff. The gym situation disappointed my husband (not in same building,dark and limited gear).

WARNING - DONT STAY HERE !!!!!

The receptionist checked us in (we paid over £350 for our room) and only then told us we could not go into the bar or restaurant! We are both double vaccinated with Astra Zenica. She, and her manager, both claimed this following a directive from the Swiss parliament. However the OFFICIAL Swiss Government website, which we showed them, clearly states the AZ jab is recognized as its EU accepted. They claimed to have this new \"directive\" and after much arguing they provided it - all it is was a just memo from the hotel chain and nothing official could be presented to us! Its no wonder when faced with the official Swiss Gov website stating we were fine, as compared with an internal hotel memo saying we were not, that we could not accept their stance. True or not - when banning guests from bars and restaurants one should take care to have official information available to show why that is. The receptionist, that shouted at us in front of other guests, even called a security guard. The previous night we stayed at an amazing hotel in Andermatt and had NO PROBLEMS. These people, at 8PM, would not let us eat and we had to walk around to find a restaurant (which we did). They let us in!! We travel the world and have 104 past bookings just with hotels.com but NEVER have we been treated so BADLY by any hotel. These people do not deserve your money, they are totally unprofessional. There are many fine hotels in Lausanne - this is NOT one of them. We will be taking this matter further.
