Hotel Parc et Lac

About

Hotel Parc & Lac is a historic gem on the shores of Lake Geneva, nestled in the heart of Montreux. Established in 1860, it was the first hotel in the city and now welcomes guests with its charming blend of vintage architecture and modern comforts. Its prime location—just 80 metres from the iconic Freddie Mercury statue and a 5‑minute walk from the train station—makes it an ideal base for exploring the town’s cultural attractions, including the legendary Montreux Jazz Festival, Christmas market, and a range of art exhibitions. Guests enjoy a range of rooms that accommodate one or two guests: from courtyard‑side rooms with tasteful décor to lake‑view rooms boasting balconies (except on the 5th floor). All rooms feature flat‑screen TVs, dedicated workspaces, and bathrooms with either showers or bathtubs, plus complimentary towels and toiletries. Free Wi‑Fi is available throughout the property, and a welcoming breakfast buffet—priced at 11 CHF per person—offers a selection of pastries, cereals, yogurt, cheese, eggs, and freshly brewed coffee. The hotel’s services extend beyond the rooms: it partners with local artists for themed room décor, hosts frequent art displays and contests on social media, and offers a public parking lot just 80 metres away (for a small fee). Whether you’re visiting for a leisurely lakeside stay, looking to soak up Montreux’s music heritage, or simply craving a touch of historic elegance, Hotel Parc & Lac delivers a personalised experience that connects you with the city’s rich cultural tapestry.
