We saw a little more of Lausanne than we, thanks to some road work and detours. But once we made our way to Hotel Elite, everything was great for a quick visit. The 5-minute walk from the train station with luggage turned into 25 minutes, but it paid off with a comfortable, spacious room in this handsome hotel — with an elevator. We had our choice of restaurants within a short walk that night and were on the edge of the historic City Center for a walking tour the next day. The route to the Cathedral has some steep stretches, so we used the convenient Metro to reach it and work our way back down hill. Our stay included a hearty, hot breakfast in a cozy dining room. And the manager bailed me out. I booked the wrong night, and she shifted it to the next night at no extra charge. Thanks, Hotel Elite.

While the hotel is older, it is classic! Old-world style without being worn out. The staff was great. Very close to the train station. We were impressed by Georgi, who checked us in. A wonderful ambassador for the hotel! This was our first stay, but it will not be our last!!!

No way $300 per room old old smell

Building is very close to metro and train station, but do note there is a steep slope/ long stairs from the stations to the hotel. Reception staff is very nice and welcoming. Building is a bit old but it is fine for one or two days stay.

Good size room with wonderful balcony. Staff were all pleasant and helpful. Close to both train and tram. Several restaurants nearby. Very nice hotel.

This is a great small hotel. 48 rooms. Good breakfast. Walkable to train station and dining options. I would not recommend this for people with children. This is a small and quiet property with no outside area. The rooms are nice. Ours even had a bathtub. Refrigerators.

The hotel is very clean and the staff are friendly

The rooms don’t have interior top locks, and felt a bit unsafe but I have noticed that in many area hotels. Great price. I picked it because it was the closest to the train station, not realizing the steep steps (3 flights) up, or you can go around up a steep hill. If you have heavy luggage or physical limitations, I would pick a different hotel that may say it’s farther, to the side of the station instead of up!
