Great new hotel
For being a brand new hotel, this was a great place to stay! There are obviously some kinks they're still working out (e.g., not all the rooms were ready upon arrival after the stated check-in time, there was some construction mess downstairs and in the elevator), but overall, I would recommend staying here. It's in a great location in Lausanne - very close to the water, walking distance to public transportation, shopping, and several decent restaurants and coffee shops. The staff here are incredible and regularly went out of their way to check in on us, make sure we were having a good stay, and providing information regarding the area. Bonus - it has AC!

Disliked: Staff & service
This is a very new location that is still partly under construction, as of Jul 2023. Good location but, in my opinion, very much understaffed. The hotel location is only staffed after 12 noon for around 5-6 hours (I remember, unstaffed at night). You need to check in at a nearby hotel. Good budget hotel if price is right, I guess.

Nice and clean hotel in the center of Lausanne. The top floor rooms get very warm during the summer and it is hard to sleep well. I would not recommend the hotel during that period.

GREAT STAY
An amazing hotel. Perfect location and close to everything, bars, restaurants, shops, museums and train station. The room was fantastic. Very spacious, modern and maintained well. It was spotless clean. The balcony was great with a nice view. Oh, and the Swiss chocolate fountain in the lobby....WOW..what a nice gesture.
