  Hotel Information
 
Royal Plaza Montreux Hotel is the perfect retreat for both leisure and business throughout the year...

Royal Plaza Montreux Hotel is the perfect retreat for both leisure and business throughout the year. As well as enjoying the finest location on the lake and a surprisingly mild climate, the hotel itself is located next to a beautiful park. The views stretch for miles with the mountains providing as dramatic a background as one could wish for.

The history of the Royal Plaza Montreux dates back to the first years of tourism in Montreux, towards 1835. Then, it was known as the Pension Richelieu and among its most famous guests were Victor Hugo and Tchaïkovski. In 1894, the hotel was modernised in order to keep up with the expansion of tourism and changed its name to the Hotel Continental.
Towards the end of the 1970’s a Greek ship-owner bought the property and built a new modern and luxurious Hyatt Continental which opened in 1982. Following the departure of the Hyatt group in 1992, the hotel changed hands and was renamed the Royal Plaza. It has recently undergone a complete renovation and today counts among the jewels of the Swiss hotels.

"Great hotel"
This is a hotel I have stayed at regularly for years, perfect for a weekend break whilst traveling for business in Europe. I would recommend the junior suites, with balconies, that face the lake offering an uninterrupted view of the French and Swiss alps. Hotel could use some renovations especially in the bathrooms. Several good restaurants in the hotel, excellent for walks along the lake, 5 minutes from the SBB Rail Station and 5 minutes from the Lake Geneva boat terminal. Watch out for the various music festivals as they impact, negatively, the peace and tranquility that normal exists in Montreux including the week before and after the events.

"Lakefront with stunning views"
I've stayed several times in this hotel, usually for customer events during the Jazz Festival. It's one of the few hotels in Montreux (has the Palace beaten on this count) that is located directly on the lakefront walk, no busy street between you and the water. The first thing that strikes you in this hotel is the lobby. On the one hand, it has some elements that whisk you unwillingly back to the 1980's, like the mirrory ceiling... but what an incredible view out onto the lake and mountains! Unforgettable. The hotel has been renovated since 2003, and the rooms with lakeview are terrific. Staying on the "mountain side" (i.e., overlooking a busy street and some uninteresting buildings) is pointless... stay somewhere much cheaper in town for an identical experience. I have found the staff consistently superb... friendly yet Swiss-discreet, and thoroughly professional. The meeting facilities are good, but during the Jazz Festival be ready to tolerate the beer scent hanging in the air from the nightclub they run for the occasion. The restaurants are very good, and it's a genuine pleasure to eat under the sun on their terraces just next to the lake.

"Nice hotel with a beautiful view"
The hotel was generally really nice - the staff were friendly and helpful ad the rooms were good although slightly smaller than I expected for a deluxe suite. The balcony was lovely and the views of the lake were just stunning. My only two slight issues with the hotel were the pool was very cold for a heated pool and the hotel is a bit sneaky. For example a water bottle left on your shelf invites you to enjoy it but then warns you will be charged if you do so! For a five star hotel that charges quite a bit I thought that was a bit cheap! Overall though nice hotel but if you stay pay for the lake view it is just beautiful.

"Lovely hotel, lovely place!"
We stayed at the Royal Plaza for a week in the early part of September as part of a tour. Although we had a slightly smaller corner room facing the street it was exceptionally clean and well serviced. The bed was comfortable and we slept very well. I noticed that some have mentioned noise levels were quite high on the street-side rooms. We did not find the street noise particularly intrusive but closing the electrically controlled external shutters virtually eliminated most of the noise and we were not disturbed at all during the night. The excellent choice at breakfast and superb evening meal (very good vegetarian effort as well!) meant our stay was both enjoyable and relaxing. The scenery and lakeside walks are fabulous!

"I never had such a lovely view . . ."
I stayd with my wife at the Royal Plaza for two nights in January 2006. When I entered the hotel, I was impressed of the wonderfull Lobby with a non comparable view over Lake Geneva. I had a really spacious Deluxe room. It seems that they renovated the hotel completely in the past months, everything looks new. What I liked at most was the efficient service and real guest care of the employs, I could see that they really love theyr work. I wasn't at the restaurant café du lac, but I was in the gourmet-restaurant La Croisette. It is really a long time ago, where I had such a large choice of fresh fish dishes, it was delicious. I will come back to this hotel for a longer stay in september, because I am really curious how the wine yards look in autumn. There wasn't a lot going on in the city, but I did like that, so I could relax.
