Hôtel de Chailly

From check-in to check-out, it was such a pleasant and smooth stay! The gentleman who welcomed us (I'm guessing he is the owner) was very polite and enthusiastic and proactive! His English was very good and he was just very helpful. Because he saw that I had two young children with me, he upgraded me to a slightly bigger room. And as I had a huge and heavy luggage, he gave me a room on the second floor which didn't require me to lug my luggage up a flight of stairs to the third floor. Very helpful! He was also very insistent on looking for a room with 3 single beds for me as I was 1 adult and 2 kids but we were fine with the 2 single beds pushed together. The room was slightly on the small side but it was very clean (a bit dark) but all was in good order. The bathroom was very clean and I think it was recently renovated? Modern, white and bright! Water pressure was very good. Breakfast was good!The lady there working all by herself and with limited English was super passionate and speedy in her tasks. I couldn't thank her enough for taking good care of us. The variety being offered was also good! Especially for a 3 star property. Everything was clean and hygienic. I was at another property which claimed to be 3 star plus but the breakfast wasn't as good! We also had one meal at the restaurant. My son enjoyed the burger. Prices were also reasonable for costly Switzerland! Upon check-in we got tourist cards which gave us access to the public transportation and half price off some of the tourist attractions in the area like Chaplin's World and Chillon Castle. Traveling to and fro the hotel and nearby towns like Vevey and Montreaux was very easy. Once again, gentlemen at reception explained it clearly and gave us maps. Location wise, yes it's a bit of a distance from attractions but with the above tourist card, it was fine. Good to be hopping on the bus to do some sightseeing.

Philip is a fantastic hotel owner and host. So is the team there... the chef, service staff all excellent. They made fantastic veg cuisine for us everyday and made our day with the last meal of the day after a long busy day in Montreux. Breakfast was great too. Everything perfect about the hotel. Clean, spacious, airy rooms & comfortable bed. Will definitely consider staying here again. It is a little far from the main street and station but with precise swiss transportation 15 mins travel was hardly an issue. Infact we liked the fact that it was a little away from downtown.

I had to do some laundry and the front desk staff all recommend their laundry service- we paid for 2 loads and it only cost us around $35 and all of our clothes were clean, super dry and folded. Thank you.

The location was great and bus was right across the street to ride into city center. The hotel is somewhat dated but clean and breakfast was excellent. The one drawback was no air conditioning, which we knew about but should have realized we needed that!

We were bumped from other accommodation and this was a last minute booking for us. It was a very comfortable and quiet place to stay that was conveniently located near Montreaux and nearby motorways. Not walkable to the places we were looking to visit in Montreaux, but just a short drive.
