Great Lake view from the room balcony.
The construction view beside the hotel.

Nice spacious room with big bathroom and insane view! Close to train station. Restaurant open until 11pm.

We had a lakeside room overlooking a building site, which to be fair we’d been warned about. It was a good sized room and very comfortable. The staff were very friendly and tried to be helpful.
We didn’t know that the spa would be closed for the second half of our stay. This had been a big attraction for us and we were very disappointed - particularly as we’d presumably paid for it. (No refund or compensation was offered.) We were offered the use of the spa at their sister hotel but this was 2km away - hardly conducive to our nipping down in our complimentary bathrobes and slippers for a relaxing dip before dinner.

The warmth of our welcome from Vincent who parked our car for us and dealt with our luggage so efficiently. The helpful response by staff on reception in organising our Riviera Cards. The stunning location of the hotel.
We were a little disappointed not to have a lake view but made the most of the stunning views from the bar/restaurant/breakfast room and garden.

Lovely welcome to the hotel - was able to leave the car in the hotels underground secure carpark even before the check in time. We were also able to pre-check in so we could then just pick up the room key later on in the day leaving us to explore the waterfront of Montreux at our leisure. Great room with balcony & a view of the lake, good sized beds and a bath & powerful shower. Kettle & mini bar in the room. Also had UK TV channels.
We booked on a room only basis so we booked a continental breakfast at check in. This was around 15chf per person - which was not really worth the money! There was a very poor selection - with only 2 cheeses and 1 meat on offer and a very limited choice on cereal.
There was another option for breakfast - at a high cost and in a different room- so perhaps that might have been better.
I did mention the disappointment of the breakfast at check out and was told that they had received similar comments - perhaps it needs sorting then?

The hotel is a perfect choice for exploring Montreux and the surroundings. It’s located right on the water front and has a very nice view over the lake, which you can enjoy in the outdoors bar. The rooms were spacious and very comfortable and had all the amenities you could need. Great spa as well.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Royal Plaza Montreux & Spa, and it was a truly memorable experience. The hotel’s location is unbeatable—right on the shores of Lake Geneva, with breathtaking views of the water and the Alps from both the lobby and many of the rooms.
Waking up to the sunrise over the lake was a highlight of my trip, a fabulous location right on the lake, with a bar and restaurant located lake side, with very large rooms, and onsite parking. Ideal for exploring the town.
The room was spacious, elegantly decorated, and spotlessly clean. The bed was comfortable, and the amenities (including a Nespresso machine and luxury toiletries) added a nice touch of comfort.
Service throughout my stay was impeccable. The staff were friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist with recommendations or bookings. Check-in and check-out were smooth and efficient. The hotel also offers onsite parking.
Breakfast was pretty disappointing, the worst we had in any of the hotels we had stayed in Switzerland during the 10 days we were there. Not particularly good value for money, especially the European option in the lobby lounge at CHF15 which was very primitive. The American option in the Café Bellagio at CHF30 was better, but still not great.
No iron & ironing board in the room, which seems to be standard in Switzerland, even for 4 and 5 start hotels.
Unfortunately we had a city view and not a lake view with a private balcony, as were travelling with a child, where cots cannot be accommodated in the lakeside rooms which are smaller due to the balcony, well not within the Booking.com system anyway.

I love everything: the location, the lovely staff, their attention to details, the food, the room and facilities. What a great place to stay!
Nothing in particular. It was all perfect.

Very central and wasn’t too busy when we were there. Easy to get to and deal with
The gym needs a massive redo. Almost to the point that they might be better off shutting it down. It’s not right. The roof in the pool area needs redoing also.

The location is sensational right on the stunning Montreaux promenade, witches, one of the most beautiful promenades in the world right on the lake. Hotel is grand with stunning views out of floor to celing windows in the foyer.
Possibly feels a little bit too much Marble and a 90s feeling

The breakfast was very nice but I want to mention that there were two types of breakfast, American breakfast and another option is croissant with coffee at the sunset bar.
The view of the room was wonderful full lake view and sunset view. The staff was so kind and helpful and happy to answer any questions and explained the activities we can do and were to go.
Nothing.

The view from our lake suite was amazing. We had a full view of the lake which is what we requested, but obviously paid a premium price for at close to $1,000 AUD. The continental breakfast was good value at 15 CHF pp with a reasonable choice of cereals, pastries, bread, cold meats and cheese. There were some nice touches such as the turn down service with chocolates on the pillow most nights.
1. I'm unsure how this property has a 5 star rating. The decor is old and the whole hotel needs to be refurbished. The lobby is underwhelming with the bronze mirrored ceiling. There was a strong stench of chlorine from the indoor pool a floor below in up in the lobby. Also, the lobby windows were dirty, so you couldn't see outside properly. The small garden outside the lobby windows was dead and it should have just been removed or replaced with newer ones. The upkeep of the property is much to be desired.
2. The room was seriously dated. It would have been lovely in its hey day back in the 1980s. If it wasn't for the view, I would think it was no better than a motel room. The shower was still the kind that you need to step into the tub to use. Most modern hotels have moved away from this and simply have a shower. The bidet took up unnecessary space. The taps where hard to open and close. Fittings reminded me of our home built in the 1970's.
3. The staff were overworked and were unhelpful once it came to suggestions of activities for NYE or even for restaurants.
4. The room was not cleaned properly each day. I found drinking glasses on the bed side table from the day earlier and hair still in the bathroom from the morning.

We were welcomed at reception very nicely, great location, on the edge of town but a lovely stroll to all amenities. Right on the lake front, room view was of entrance & parking but very comfortable quiet room
I can't say there was anything I didn't like!

Check-in was efficient, communication was nice and we were given a warm welcome. Our room was on an upper floor, offered a balcony and a fantastic view (lake). The breakfast was extraordinary (including hot meals) and the meals in the Restaurant were delicious (thank you for booking such a nice table for us). Merci pour tout! We will be happy to come back.

Ideal Location and views across the lake beautiful.
Rooms were very dated with noisy air conditioning, rickety balcony doors and a shower presented inside the bath is not acceptable at this price point. Spa disappointing.

It was in a good location
It was very old fashioned and needed refurbished. Not the standard of hotel I would expect for a 5* hotel and the for the price. The staff were unhelpful when any questions were asked because we booked via booking.com. If they do not like bookings from booking.com they should not offer their rooms on this platform.

Well situated. Beautiful view and terrace. Very comfortable bed.
The bathroom needs some serious renewal. No shower, only a bath with no anti-slip protection. The spaces between the tiles in the bathroom need serious cleaning or even better rework.
