Aquatis Hotel  

Perched on the heights of Lausanne, this hotel sits just off the A9 freeway and next to Vennes metro, about 3 km from the city center. It’s steps from Switzerland’s largest freshwater aquarium and a short drive from MUDAC, Lausanne Cathedral and the Olympic Museum.

Rooms are modern and original, inspired by the aquatic world, with air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs and private bathrooms featuring rainfall showers. The property feels family-friendly, offers accessible facilities and provides ample outdoor parking plus a 1,200-space public underground lot.

Relax in the spa with sauna and steam bath, or keep it active in the fitness centre and gym; kids get a dedicated playroom and there’s a quiet library. 24-hour front desk, free Wi‑Fi, a terrace, bar and a 24-hour snack menu round out the practical perks — and you’re minutes from lake access.

Twelve fully equipped conference rooms, meeting services and high-speed internet make this a strong pick for seminars and corporate events.

On-site restaurant serves varied cuisine from its terrace and a buffet breakfast is available daily; a bar and café complete the food and drink options, plus round-the-clock snacks.
