Fairmont Le Montreux Palace
is situated on the shores of Lake Geneva in Switzerland, overlooking
the Alps. Built in 1906, this Jewel of Belle-Époque
architecture offers a traditional and elegant atmosphere, and a
personalised and attentive service in true Swiss style.
Accommodation:
Fairmont Le Montreux Palace
has 235 rooms and suites, most of which overlook the lake, and thus
offer a fabulous panorama of the vigour and freshness of nature, all
drenched in light. Most of the rooms have a balcony or veranda--ideal
spots to take advantage of the first rays of sunlight or the warm
summer nights.
Spacious and light, decorated in warm colours such as burgundy, royal
blue or eggshell, the rooms have an elegant and classical feel. A few
pieces of antique furniture--desk, chest of drawers or wardrobe--enrich
a decor recently renovated in the Belle Époque spirit. Yet behind the
sophisticated atmosphere lurk all the conveniences of the modern world:
Public Wireless LAN connection, air conditioning, telephone with voice
messaging, modem connection, cable television with Pay-per-View. Our
