I had great stay at the Swiss Wine Hotel during a recent trip to Switzerland, where I reconnected with friends and explored the charming city and beyond. The hotel's location is perfect for exploring Lausanne, with Bessières Metro station right outside the door and a convenient Coop supermarket just across the street. The historic Place de la Riponne and the stunning cathedral are also within walking distance of the hotel; just a short stroll across the picturesque Charles Bessières Bridge. My room was immaculately clean and boasted a supremely comfortable bed, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The only minor drawback was the room's warmth, as it didn't have air conditioning. However, I was able to manage by opening the windows during the day to let in the fresh air and closing them at night to enjoy a peaceful sleep (as my room faced onto the main street). Despite this minor issue, I would definitely consider staying here again on a future visit. In fact, I would recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and conveniently located hotel in Lausanne. Just be prepared for a warm stay during the summer months!

Location was really good, very close to the city centre and attractions.

in Switzerland/Lausanne there are premium prices, but then one expects also premium conditions. Have stayed at Fassbind hotels before, but found the tidiness a little bit down. But my main disappointment was the broken bike (didn't spin properly and foot strap broken) in the gym. I select hotels with (good) gym and mainly look out for the bike to train. Was bit disappointed.

Included metro/bus/train ticket with our stay which made getting around very easy.

The staff were very friendly and the hotel was in a great location. Easy access to the train and close to many restaurants and cafes. The view from the room was great too (the Lausanne Cathedreal). However, our room was dirty (coffee stains on the walls, cobwebs on the floors, etc.). The conditions were also not great (the toilet paper holder was falling off the wall, the shower always made the floor wet, it was hard to open the bathroom door, dents in the wall, etc.). The wifi was also spotty and slow. Larger fans were needed in the room, since there was no air conditioning. It was extremely hot during our stay.

Great location. There were two saunas on offer. The first was down by the fitness area- would recommend. The second is actually your room, with the lack of air-con giving you 24/7 opportunity to open those pores. There is a fan that acts as substitute to the A/C. It is as useful as those powder milk substitutes that you get in some hotels… oh wait.

Great location with easy access to Metro right outside of hotel. Nice view of cathedral located near city centre. Very modern room in a nice, old building.

Absolutely loved this wine themed hotel. Stayed one night before catching a morning train to Paris. The wine decor was fantastic, it was clean,right across the street from the Metro that was only three quick stops from Lausanne Gare which is perfect if taking the TGV. Also the staff was really friendly and helpful. Would 100% recommend staying in this modern hotel.

The location is perfect for the Metro just 3 stops from the main railway station. Close to the cathedral and fantastic eating places. The reception staff are super friendly, helpful and take interest in you and your reason for visiting - offering help and suggestions where needed. Our room had a lovely view over towards the cathedral. Very quiet hotel which the housekeeping staff keep super clean and tidy. We will return and highly recommend it as a location to stay.

Nice hotel with spacious rooms and in a convenient location. A couple of items in the room broken/under repair and more toiletries in the bathroom would have been nice. Friendly and helpful staff.

Centrally located and with great views of the cathedral..rooms slightly small for thr peice but that’s somewhat typical for Europe and especially that it’s a century old building that was recently refurbished into a hotel..big shout out to the reception staff Simoni and Elefterios who were especially helpful through out our stay!
