“From what I gather, Hotel De La Paix Lausanne seems a smart choice, particularly given its prime location a short walk from both the cathedral and the COOP supermarket. The views of Lake Geneva, reportedly visible throughout the hotel, certainly add to the appeal. And the inclusion of a free metro pass strikes me as a genuine advantage for exploring the hilly city.”

Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Hotel De La Paix Lausanne is generally appreciated for its central location and spacious rooms, often featuring very nice bathrooms. Many guests enjoyed amazing views of Lake Geneva and the Alps from their rooms. While the breakfast buffet may not meet everyone's expectations in terms of selection compared to other 4-star hotels in Europe, the hotel's proximity to shops, restaurants, and a metro station for easy access to the lake is a definite plus.

Acceptable Stay with Some Issues

fresh equipmentrude receptionistcold breakfast
The gym equipped with Technogym machines was new and quite good, with fresh equipment and towels.
The breakfast I ordered was cold, and the server did not allow me to sit near a window. The coffee in the room was a big disappointment. Only two freeze-dried instant coffee packets were supplied at first, and they did not replenish them (seriously?! ). The receptionist was rude during checkout, yelling the same word repeatedly because her English was poor, so I couldn't understand her.
