Overall Ratings & Reviews Hôtel Préalpina

A solid hotel in a beautiful location. View of the lake and mountains. Many balconies. Beautiful area in a sleepy village. The place is extremely clean, but a little age is showing and low cost improvements. I am sure this is out of season and hotel is in a maintenance mode so the restaurant was closed.

It was a good stay. Would be better with a car. I went for the view but with the rain and fog I couldn’t see anything at all. No food offered except breakfast. Closest restaurant was a long walk away and down the hill. Excellent front desk staff .

Excellent stay. Family of 4 with spacious room. Room and shower very nice. And had a great parking.

Todo excelente. La mejor vista del lago Leman

My stay was good, room clean and very spacious. The WiFi was very slowly but ok The breakfast attendant is not very friendly. The front desk agent are very friendly and help me answer all my questions. I will definitely stay again.

The sight was very beautiful, the bed was comfortable and very good for sleeping.

Nice and comfortable place

Sheets of pull out sofa smelled of cigarettes when we got our room. Other than that, lovely place in a great location. Family room was a great layout and spacious. We had cooler weather so lack of AC was fine. Beautiful homes and vineyards nearby, Lavaux Pass provided was greatly appreciated.

View

we had a marvellous stay. the lake view rooms are splendid. would love to return soon.

quite a long walk from the bus station location with an amazing view.

The view is amazing but make sure to get there before dark. It might be hard to find after dark

Upgrade to a lake view room and the view was great. Easy to parking and breakfast was great ( with $17 surcharge). Shower space is a little tight.

C’était correcte. Pas de café dans les chambres. Souper offert le mercredi 8 mai, service terrible, très lent.

The view of the lake was to die for. The room as well as the whole hotel was recently renovated and had all the amenities one needs. However the room can get quite hot so wear just a tshirt when you go to bed. Finally kindly notice that there is no reception operating after 11:00 pm, so make sure that you know how to collect your room keys from the safety boxes at the entrance after 11:00 pm.

A gigantic room, in a darling town, with an amazing view.

Wonderful view of lake lemon and the Alp's, friendly service, everything perfect

Great option in the area for a hotel!

On the positive side….the view from our small window was extraordinary. That’s it. We were a couple travelling with our adult daughter, who is studying in France. I booked this hotel based on the photos and the reviews - and was more than a little disappointed with what we actually got. There was no picture window or balcony or open pleasant spacious room. We were assigned to a cramped garret in poor repair with sloping ceilings and no floor space on the 5th level. (Elevators run to the 4th floor only and it’s stairs after that.) The pullout couch was very uncomfortable; all the pillows were flat. The toilet seat had a broken hinge so it slid around freely, and 2 of the 3 nozzles on the shower head were obstructed meaning showering was a slow painful process. The window had dry-rot on the exterior so that when it was opened, bits and pieces broke off and fell to the floor. The breakfast was incredibly expensive and we didn’t opt-in, so I can’t assess whether it was any good….but based on everything else, we felt it was a very poor bet. There were only about 6 other cars in the parking lot so I can’t account for being relegated to such a terrible room on the basis of over-crowding. It was just very, very underwhelming and disappointing, especially given that it was also not cheap.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful hotel nestled amidst the picturesque vineyards near Lausanne and Montreux. The setting is truly idyllic, offering stunning views that take your breath away. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, making the stay all the more enjoyable. Breakfasts overlooking the serene lake were a highlight, providing a tranquil start to each day. As you drive up, you’re met with the delightful company of chickens and goats, adding a touch of rural charm to the experience. It’s a heartwarming sight that sets the tone for a relaxing stay. The hotel’s location is a dream for wine enthusiasts, surrounded by numerous vineyards to explore. The easy access to both Lausanne and Montreux made day trips a breeze, offering a taste of city life amidst the serene countryside. One minor point of improvement would be the pillows, which were a bit on the uncomfortable side. Having a few extra options would greatly enhance the sleeping experience. Overall, this hotel offers a perfect blend of natural beauty, warm hospitality, and convenient access to nearby attractions. It’s a gem for those seeking a peaceful retreat in the heart of Switzerland’s wine country.
