Canton of Vaud Bed and Breakfast Inns | Places to Stay in Canton of Vaud

April 27, 2023 Tambra Mccollister

Located in the southwestern part of Switzerland, in its French-speaking part between Lake Geneva and Lake Neuchâtel, the Canton of Vaud is a vacation destination where life is good. Easily accessible thanks to the proximity of Geneva international airport and an exceptionally dense public transport network, the region offers all the necessary infrastructures, from five-star palaces to charming guest rooms. The diversity of its landscapes, from the peaks of the Alps, to the lakeside towns of Lausanne and Montreux, to the wide open spaces of the Jura and the authentic charm of the countryside, concentrates all the facets of Switzerland in one territory. The beautiful towns and villages, such as Lausanne, Montreux, Nyon, Morges and Yverdon-les-Bains, are steeped in centuries of history and rich in captivating culture. This region has influenced and inspired artists over the years, from Lord Byron and Audrey Hepburn to Charlie Chaplin and Freddie Mercury. But the region is best known for its art of living. Local or internationally renowned events, outdoor sports activities, regional know-how, typical and high level gastronomy, excellent wines, living traditions, cultural offer... are all elements that seduce visitors.

Nice place

Reviewed By 816nadinea

Spent a really nice night at Hotel Masson, which has a lot of historic charm. At the end of May, a few weeks after the lookdown caused by Covid-19 strict measures should have still been in place. We were a bit surprised to see that no (at least obvisous) measures were taken apart from one desinfectant at the entrence of the dining room. We would have felt more secure if the owners had shown more awareness of the special circumstances.

Good place for a getaway

Reviewed By jeanlucp731

We had a very enjoyable time during our stay at this place. The managing team is excellent and making sure that you stay is comfortable. The room we had was modern and functionable. In short - nothing fancy but quite comfortable. The restaurant offers excellent food but in the upper end from a price standpoint. I believe that the management team has decided to focus more on short stay and gastronomic cuisine than guest spending a week for relaxation. If you were to stay several nights the menu could offer more options im the mid-range price. Local products and quality are clearly a priority and much appreciated at our end.

not the worst, but lackluster

Reviewed By bumi84

I don't know exactly where to begin with this. Let's point out at first, that the room (for two) was around 150.- CHF per night, just to set up the stage. But what do we get for that money? The hotel was NOT fully booked when we arrived. You could easily tell by the amount of customers having breakfast in the morning that there was still some rooms available. And yet, they decided to give us one of the rooms on the 3rd floor, directly under the roof. With a wooden ceiling and some angles. During a very warm September with up to 27°c during the day - and no AC in the room. So things got pretty hot actually which was definitely not a pleasant feeling. It didn't help either that the room itself is not too big. A decently sized bed, a minibar (empty), a safe, a tiny TV, 2 chairs and a tiny desk plus to bedside tables. It didn't even have a wardrobe, just some hangers for coats and such. No wardrobe. What the actual f*** ?! The mattress was on the harder side, but that's always subjective. We didn't particularly like it. At least everything was clean, just as the very small bathroom. You could hardly turn around in there, it almost felt as a phone booth with running water, but without a phone. Not great, but it served its purpose. Definitely not enough space for your personal items and utensils though. The restaurant is only open on 4 days a week, which is a very weird concept. At least they serve breakfast every day, albeit not a great one. Basically it's all of decent quality, even the bread (which is more than other Hotels can claim), but the variety us just not there. Some cereal, two types of meat, 2 types of cheese, a bit of fruit, eggs, yoghurt and 5 different kinds of bread. Go nuts. It's okay and gets you fed, but I would not dare calling it a good breakfast. Sort of the same goes with diner, if you manage to catch one of the 4 days they are actually open for business. It's all cooked well, but the portions could be a notch bigger sized. Plus, all the dishes sound very fancy on paper, but the taste doesn't really match that picturesque description. But it seems that 'making it sound fancy' is their way of setting up the prices. A pork chop with a handful of veggies and some polenta for 40.-? That's steep. Last but not least we got the 'service quality', which is basically nonexistant. Some of the staff speaks English and some German, whereas others only speak in French. I might be alone with that opinion, but if you work in a touristic place, a 2nd language can be expected, even if it would not be perfect. But the language barrier is just the tip of the iceberg. If you check in on MO or TU, there is no reception. You are emailed a code for the door and the key to your room lies on a table at the entrance, for anyone to pick. The reception desk is never occupied at all. It's the staff from the bar/restaurant that handles this part as well. So when you check out, you just hand them your key and that's it. Cutting corners, eh? That's one way of doing it, just don't have a freaking reception at all. Wow. Sometimes during the breakfast it was almost impossible to order some more coffee, as the (only!) waitress just didn't even look at you. I understand that you got quite some work if you have to handle the breakfast all on your own. But aside from the drinks it was all on buffet and no orders had to be taken. Plus, I rarely saw more than 5 tables busy at once. So it should be manageable to be a little more attentive and check if your customers would possibly need something. Similar situation at diner. There were only 2 servers and it took way too long to actually clean off the table after we finished our plates and if we wouldn't have called for service, we would have waited even longer. If you actually manage to catch the staff (and you might even understand each other) they are very friendly. There's no argueing about that. But the level of service was actually not there. In short: if you're just on the lookout to spend some nights in a clean room without ANY extras at all, this serves exactly that purpose. But for that alone, 150.- are way too much. You can get exactly the same level of room- and servicequality in Hotels that are 50.- less per night. Not recommended.

When we booked this hotel we didn't expected that kind of experience. The reception is "virtual" but that has no impact on the warm side of the place! We had, throughout our stay, the same interlocutor by messaging, he was very friendly and knows the region perfectly! He was very good advice for restaurants and activities in the region. The room, simple but equipped with everything you need for a pleasant stay. And above all an incredible view of the lake and a castle!

La Maison d'Igor

A century ago, the composer Igor Stravinsky chose Morges as the ideal location for both calm and climate; it is here that he composed his most remarkable works. Today, you can be just as inspired, enjoying the house he lived in with its lush gardens overlooking Lake Geneva and the Alps. Entirely converted into an 8-room hotel in 2012, La Maison d’Igor has been fully refurbished with modern amenities to meet the needs of today’s exigent client while still preserving the beauty of things past, such as the original woodwork, sculptures, stucco, fireplace and fountain that have all been lovingly restored to their former glory.

Wonderful boutique hotel

Reviewed By 132christinec

Our family, from around the world, have just returned from a four day visit to Lausanne for the Triathlon world championships. We decided to stay in Morges as it was better value and quieter than Lausanne, the train connections are so quick and frequent that travel was not a problem. The little hotel was a wonderful find. The staff were all lovely and helpful even finding a lockable room for my son to keep his very precious triathlon bike in. The rooms were all different with a mixture of decor - our huge, black and white bathroom had an artificial, life sized zebra head on the wall! The beds and pillows were very comfortable. Breakfast consisted of croissants, cereal, fruit, yoghurt, cold meat, cheese and home grown tomatoes. There is a lovely terrace outside to eat, if the weather is clement. There is a small Italian Restaurant at the hotel (it is run separately to the hotel by a delightful Italian young man) which is fairly good but not cheap (nothing is in Switzerland). Overall, we had a memorable stay and thoroughly enjoyed the Swiss hospitality.

Basic location right by the lake - has the advantage of delivering excellent price vs. quality and the Bellerive public pool across the street is a definite must-go on sunny days. What did I miss?
