A charming small hotel by the lake, located in a beautiful old town. It’s not quite the Riviera, but it has a unique charm that makes you feel like time has slowed down - in a good way. ✅ Great location with lovely lake views ✅ Good value for money ✅ Cozy and atmospheric, perfect for a short stay

❌ No direct parking at the hotel - driving and finding a spot can be a bit tricky ❌ Some parts of the hotel and town feel a bit frozen in time

The staff at Rivage are incredible! They were all great and Ben was especially kind, helping us with a complex rental car issue. The car rental representatives conitinually hung up on me when I asked for an English speaking person, so he spent a lot of time speaking to the rental company and resolving the issue; he exceeded our expectations in every way! The double room was bigger and cooler than the single, which we appreciate in the heat. The location is perfect for walking to restaurants or going on a run. I easily walked to the train station. Visit the UNESCO wineries surrounding the area - you can take the train and get off at Chexbres. The restaurant staff were very nice and the food was good.

Primarily, the location couldn't have been better. The hotel is located right next to the boat dock and a few minutes walk to the beach and public swimming area. Also I need to mention the staff at check in, all were very welcoming and friendly. With the summer heat hanging on well into October, we were given a fan which helped us sleep. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom/shower area was large enough to move around comfortably. I recommend this hotel and the town of Lutry for anyone traveling around the charming towns on the shores of Lake Geneva.

The ceiling in our 3rd floor room was low due to the angle of the building's roof line and I hit my head getting out of bed a few times.

A fantastic location on the shores of Lake Geneva, and a historic hotel in the center of Lausanne. Staff was friendly, parking was appreciated though difficult to access. We enjoyed our stay and our room, though a bit pricey (as we stayed in their best room). The views are good, but some issues with the hotel's trees, which could easily be trimmed more often to ensure good views. The hotel is located right on the yacht harbor and near to the ferry dock, with restaurants within walking distance. Being on the promenade, there are also events right there, which we enjoyed. Breakfast was subpar and not worth the price. The hotel restaurant is really staffed for lunch and dinner. Coffee was from a machine only, or if otherwise from the multiple cappuccino machines behind the counter we were never informed. And why not make the machines available? It would have been the one bright spot of the breakfast. One way streets make it difficult to drive to the hotel and drop off luggage, but staff was very helpful, and this was appreciated. Lausanne, like many locations in Switzerland can be pricey for eating out, but several inexpensive restaurants and options were nearby including a wonderful pizza place, and an event where we bought the most wonderful seafood paella we've had in years for 25 francs each.

Breakfast was subpar and not worth the price.

Suberb location. Old meets the new. A feeling of timeless tranquilité mixed with the highest comfort, ancient beautiful soulfull house with the comfort of modern fascilities. Very welcoming staff. Nice big breakfast.

I think some of the guests were smoking above my room. There was a heavy smell of smoke in the bathroom coming from another room. This is unrespectfull from the guests' part.

The staff was extremely pleasant and professional ! Wonderful first impression! The restaurant, service and fare were both exemplary ! Our server was so polite!! Thank you to him!! It would have been great if there was access to an English TV program I was surprised about that! Room was spotless, a bit tight, and some of the exterior trim needs to be painted etc, furniture is showing signs of wear and tear The location on the lake couldn’t have been better and loved the huge window! The view of the moon over the lake was breathtaking! The hotels location in the village was right out of a story book ! I’d highly recommend the hotel!

Trim , showing signs of age No access to an English language TV channel Feel like I’m being picky but I was asked…

Delightful stay in the most amazing location! Was really special being able to walk outside and be right on Lake Geneva. Only a few minutes walk from the plage too for swimming! The bed was comfortable and having a mini fridge was great for affordable meals while travelling.

The wifi doesn’t work in the rooms. So we had to sit on the stairs whenever we wanted to use wifi - at least there was still a nice view! If you can we would recommend staying in a room with a view but even if you can’t the lake is right outside :)

Splendid location on harbour and lake with restaurants nearby and beach promenade for longer than 1-hour walk. Places to swim foreseen. The room had wooden floors, and lovely lights, and the wall my window looked onto had a painting of the harbour in the front of the hotel. The bathroom was modern and well-equipped, the staff very cordial and there was wheelchair access! Brilliant. Also, public parking at approx 100l of hotell0 Moving around to centre of Lausanne is easy by bus and quick.

The room was very comfortable and we slept very well. The AC was a perfect respite from some very hot weather. Our window view over the Lavaux was gorgeous and also included views of the lake. We had a lovely dinner at the lakeside restaurant.

Overall, it was great but the shower door has seen better days. It was very hard to move without feeling like something was in danger of breaking. Our dinner was very good though the service was very slow and not very attentive, though that may just be a cultural difference.

The view towards the lake and mountains is incredible. If only for this, I recommend staying at this hotel. The bed was comfortable and the room was large enough (we stayed in one of the attic rooms). The staff are friendly and try their best to be curteous and helpful (receptionists and cleaning ladies).

The attic rooms are near the chimney smoke evacuation. During the first night it was impossible to open the window without smoke coming in (lots of it). The receptionist went out of his way to try to help us, and even called a chimney expert to clean it. The second night it was better, but it was still impossible to open the window in the evening, without feeling intoxicated (during the day this was not a problem) For this reason, I would not recommend booking the attic rooms (I would have loved to be able to enjoy the amazing view in the evening, as well).
