On the Swiss Riviera, Vevey is perched between Mount PÂlerin and Lake Geneva. Writers, artists and intellectuals have long been attracted to the village: Henry James's "Daisy Miller" is set here (you can still stay at the Hotel des Trois Couronnes) and Charlie Chaplin made nearby Corsier his home. Today, it's the headquarters for Nestl yet retains its old-world charm. To see for yourself, meander the alleys of Old Town, visit the fine art collection at the Muse Jenisch and shop at the weekly market.

When we booked this hotel we didn't expected that kind of experience. The reception is "virtual" but that has no impact on the warm side of the place! We had, throughout our stay, the same interlocutor by messaging, he was very friendly and knows the region perfectly! He was very good advice for restaurants and activities in the region. The room, simple but equipped with everything you need for a pleasant stay. And above all an incredible view of the lake and a castle!

Christophe and Nicolas Ming welcome you to the Hôtellerie de Châtonneyre! The 3-star establishment has been proudly located in the centre of the wine village of Corseaux, in the majestic vineyards of Lavaux - UNESCO, for 50 years now. It enjoys a magnificent view of the lake, the mountains and the town of Vevey below. It has 17 newly renovated rooms and suites, seminar and banqueting rooms for up to 300 people and a restaurant with terrace offering bistronomic cuisine using local and seasonal products, accompanied by the best wines of the region.
I don't know exactly where to begin with this. Let's point out at first, that the room (for two) was around 150.- CHF per night, just to set up the stage. But what do we get for that money? The hotel was NOT fully booked when we arrived. You could easily tell by the amount of customers having breakfast in the morning that there was still some rooms available. And yet, they decided to give us one of the rooms on the 3rd floor, directly under the roof. With a wooden ceiling and some angles. During a very warm September with up to 27°c during the day - and no AC in the room. So things got pretty hot actually which was definitely not a pleasant feeling. It didn't help either that the room itself is not too big. A decently sized bed, a minibar (empty), a safe, a tiny TV, 2 chairs and a tiny desk plus to bedside tables. It didn't even have a wardrobe, just some hangers for coats and such. No wardrobe. What the actual f*** ?! The mattress was on the harder side, but that's always subjective. We didn't particularly like it. At least everything was clean, just as the very small bathroom. You could hardly turn around in there, it almost felt as a phone booth with running water, but without a phone. Not great, but it served its purpose. Definitely not enough space for your personal items and utensils though. The restaurant is only open on 4 days a week, which is a very weird concept. At least they serve breakfast every day, albeit not a great one. Basically it's all of decent quality, even the bread (which is more than other Hotels can claim), but the variety us just not there. Some cereal, two types of meat, 2 types of cheese, a bit of fruit, eggs, yoghurt and 5 different kinds of bread. Go nuts. It's okay and gets you fed, but I would not dare calling it a good breakfast. Sort of the same goes with diner, if you manage to catch one of the 4 days they are actually open for business. It's all cooked well, but the portions could be a notch bigger sized. Plus, all the dishes sound very fancy on paper, but the taste doesn't really match that picturesque description. But it seems that 'making it sound fancy' is their way of setting up the prices. A pork chop with a handful of veggies and some polenta for 40.-? That's steep. Last but not least we got the 'service quality', which is basically nonexistant. Some of the staff speaks English and some German, whereas others only speak in French. I might be alone with that opinion, but if you work in a touristic place, a 2nd language can be expected, even if it would not be perfect. But the language barrier is just the tip of the iceberg. If you check in on MO or TU, there is no reception. You are emailed a code for the door and the key to your room lies on a table at the entrance, for anyone to pick. The reception desk is never occupied at all. It's the staff from the bar/restaurant that handles this part as well. So when you check out, you just hand them your key and that's it. Cutting corners, eh? That's one way of doing it, just don't have a freaking reception at all. Wow. Sometimes during the breakfast it was almost impossible to order some more coffee, as the (only!) waitress just didn't even look at you. I understand that you got quite some work if you have to handle the breakfast all on your own. But aside from the drinks it was all on buffet and no orders had to be taken. Plus, I rarely saw more than 5 tables busy at once. So it should be manageable to be a little more attentive and check if your customers would possibly need something. Similar situation at diner. There were only 2 servers and it took way too long to actually clean off the table after we finished our plates and if we wouldn't have called for service, we would have waited even longer. If you actually manage to catch the staff (and you might even understand each other) they are very friendly. There's no argueing about that. But the level of service was actually not there. In short: if you're just on the lookout to spend some nights in a clean room without ANY extras at all, this serves exactly that purpose. But for that alone, 150.- are way too much. You can get exactly the same level of room- and servicequality in Hotels that are 50.- less per night. Not recommended.

Welcome to Hotel de la Place, a flagship of Vaud heritage, located in the heart of the vineyards and the village of Corsier, above the city of Vevey. Installed in a beautiful building listed, dating from 1592 and well representative of the Bernese in country of Vaud architecture, it houses a typical Vaud « Café » which kept its beautiful beams of origin, as well as a small warm room with fireplace. Framework for an evening with friends, a little family reunion or simply a welcome stop. The most recent part was completely renovated and converted into a small hotel modern and comfortable. The comfortable rooms at very friendly price have sink, shower/WC, TV and wifi.
While this hotel is quite lovely, note the times they are open prior to going. There are about 80 stairs to take from the street level to get to the hotel, you may want to inquire ahead of time how the best way to get there is. They also do not have air conditioning which is probably fine except that I was there during their recent heat wave. They did have a small fan. The hotel is clean, nicely decorated and there is a restaurant connected to it which is quite good.

Despite an amazing eye for detail and a fantastic house with an amazing view, the host lacks friendly social skills and etiquette. We did appreciate that we could leave our suitcases in the garage. (We arrived admittedly before the check in time of 1600 because we wanted to see some of the area and I was at fault that I didn't inform her before) However please be aware that you are taking money from us and we are guests in your B&B yet were made to feel like intruders. Also it was a very uncomfortable feeling to realise that our rooms had been entered while we were at breakfast. (We noticed the bins had been cleaned). Of you are going to have a strict check in time of 1600 then we request that you respect your own check out time of 10:00 and to not start doing the laundry or cleaning the rooms before.

Terrible hotel Confrontational receptionist Almost threatening Looking for a fight Situated in a gas station I urge potential customers never to stay at this place It was a very upsetting experience Try the modern times hotel in the same town , an absolute delight The owner will reply to this by saying that I am only a squatter from the car park and nit a guest I can assure you that I did try to check in but the experience was unbelievable I walked away and lost my refund It was worth it
