A tribute to the great Freddy Mercury, this hotel had pictures all over the lobby giving me nostalgic memories of his music. Beyond that, the hotel is pretty new and in great condition. The staff are excellent and very helpful. My booking through Expedia didn’t show up on their end so due to availability they could only give me a lower tier room but made up with complementary breakfast. The next night they upgraded my room and gave me complementary breakfast (reg 25CHF). Loved the customer service overall. Would highly recommend this hotel.

The Freddie Mercury Hotel offered good value and it’s the training facility for a local hospitality school. Location is excellent for walking around Montreux and taking the train as the station is less than 5 mins walk away. Having secure parking downstairs inside the hotel was a big bonus.

3 stars is fair. I love the concept of this hotel, and the idea that staff are all students in training. The Freddie Mercury name is a big draw and I didn't find the area bad. To avoid hills, walk along the train platform & you can use escalators/lifts. Otherwise walk down the hills for shops/resturants in easy reach. Great links to public transport. The hotel misses on a few points for me, I detest carrying around something with the hotel name and my room rumber on it, this is screaming out for rooms to be robbed - with a key you don't even walk through reception. This isn't safe for me. The rooms desperately need blackout curtains, yes it has shutters and these look lovely, however they don't block light. I'm glad I wasn't staying in peak summer, with no air con either! The pillows were awful, but the beds comfortable and the whole hotel was spotlessly clean. The rooms were very basic, but I didn't mind this. I prefer this to some styles! Lastly, the T&C's of staying, that you sign, seemed very focused on items going missing from rooms. I was unhappy with this (it didn't seem standard) so left a 'do not disturb' sign on my room. When I've done this in other hotels, housekeeping will generally check if you still need anything. Even slip a card under the door, or ask you to visit reception. Here I had to ask for toilet roll and towels. Odd? Would I stay here again? Probably not - for the above reasons. There's room for improvements for sure.

Best place to stay in Montreux. So easy toAccess the hotel from platform 1 and rooms are extra ordinary. Most rooms have the best view but the ones on the 5th floor, room 523 had spectacular views. Staff , food etc were great!

Great location. Right at train station platform 1, so very convenient for those riding train. Clean. Nice amenities and extras, like bottled water, Coffee and tea in room with a tea kettle. They even had umbrellas in room for rainy days. Great room with patio, however weather didn't cooperate. Friendly staff. Mattress was a little dipped in middle. Overall, a great stay!

The staff were very pleasant and helpful. Spotlessly clean. We were travelling by train and the proximity to Montreux Train station was excellent. Walk to the end of Platform 1 and you are there. We hope to come back again one day.
