Hotel du Grand Lac Excelsior  

On Montreux’s waterfront beside Lake Geneva with sweeping Alps views, this Belle Époque hotel sits a short walk from the city centre. Minutes from the Freddie Mercury statue, Montreux Casino and local museums, it’s ideal for lakeside escapes and festival stays.

Housed in a Victorian/Belle Époque building, the hotel offers about 86–87 individually styled rooms and suites, many with private balconies facing the lake. Rooms include minibars, flat-screen TVs (some with DVD players), en suite baths or showers and complimentary Wi‑Fi; a few rooms feature individually regulated air conditioning.

Dive into a semi‑Olympic indoor pool or ease into the sauna, steam room and beauty centre; there’s also a Biotonus clinic and a medical centre for regeneration treatments. The hotel packs a 24‑hour fitness centre, an on‑site casino, summer terrace dining and ski-access for winter guests — wake up to crisp lake-breeze mornings and miles of Alpine views.

Conference facilities include about 519 m² (5,584 sq ft) of event space, meeting and presentation rooms, concierge support and free self‑parking. Complimentary wireless internet keeps you connected and multilingual staff help with bookings and logistics.

Les Magnolias serves creative, light cuisine built on fresh seasonal produce, with Le Jardin terrace open in summer and a casual snack spot, La Mouette, nearby. There’s also a café, a bar/lounge and room service, plus a hearty on‑site breakfast to fuel busy days.
