The Best of NileGuide

Since modern Lausanne began basically in the 12th century, Top 10 hotels tend to be more traditional in structure and harmonious with the neighborhood in which they are located. They range from conservative to exquisitely palatial or decorative dating from the Belle Epoque 19th century period such as The Beau Rivage Palace, and her sister hotel, L'Angleterre, followed by historical Lausanne Palace, La Paix, Au Lac and La Mirabeau (Best Western). These are all very different hotels but all with something unique and compelling. The first Top 10 pick, Beau Rivage Palace is legendary and surrounded by lush gardens located on the shores of Lake Leman. Its sister hotel, the historical L'Angleterre, right next door benefits from being part of this outstanding hotel complex.
The other luxurious Belle Epoque hotel is the Lausanne Palace located right in the city center which offers fine dining, elegant public areas, chic bars and an outstanding spa also used by locals.
Other Top 10 picks are selected for their charm and uniqueness rather than category or degree of luxury. A reconstructed and recently renovated medieval Castle, the Château d'Ouchy is a popular landmark with extraordinary views on the shores of Lake Geneva.
Lessor known 19th c. charming 3 star Hostellerie Les Chevreuils located above Lausanne in the pastoral countryside actually has one of the best restaurants in the region and is surrounded by recreational facilities of all types. Public transportation is available.
City top picks include Alpha-Palmiers with modern atmosphere which is an excellent meeting hotel as well as the more traditional Nash Carlton, a lovely quiet hotel with a pleasant garden.
