    fantastic location
    friendly staff
    free transportation pass
    dated decor

    The Continental Hotel is a gem for travelers! Being directly across from Lausanne Gare means no more lugging heavy bags uphill. Plus, they offer a free public transportation pass for effortless city exploring. The staff's warmth, especially from Lyon at reception, adds a personal touch that makes all the difference.

    Rooms could use a facelift.

    currency issue

    Some serious issues dent the experience. trouble can hit you hard at midnight if you lack local currency, leaving you fumbling for change or dealing with unexpected stress. While the room is comfortable, two beds and a sofa are misleadingly marketed as three beds, proving to be quite inconvenient for a group stay.

    prime location
    small room

    Convenient location with a touch of charm

    The hotel’s prime location right across from the train station allowed for easy access to public transportation. The staff went out of their way, even lending us towels for a day trip after checkout.

    The room felt smaller than expected, and while the street noise was manageable, the air conditioning didn’t seem to work well, impacting our comfort at night.

    awesome breakfast

    10/10

    Oh my gosh, our stay was, like, literally amazing! We got upgraded to a lake view room, which was super sweet. Breakfast had everything we could possibly want, and the staff was super chill about letting us extend our checkout time. Just across the station, so convenient!

    poor heating
    subpar breakfast

    the heating did not work well, and I was cold the entire time, but of course, no one seemed to care. the breakfast was so simple, it felt like I was at a 3-star hotel instead of a supposed luxury one. I had expected a lovely room upgrade or at least a complimentary gesture, but alas, nothing. I almost gave a good review but just couldn’t.

    strategic location
    air conditioning
    outdated amenities
    minimal breakfast

    The hotel's strategic location opposite the train station is perfect for easy travel, while the air conditioning provided a welcome relief during the hot weather. However, some amenities felt a bit outdated, and the breakfast selection was minimal compared to expectations.

    convenient location
    wellness area

    the continental hotel is super close to gare flon, making shopping really easy. my room was clean and comfortable, and i appreciated the small wellness area to unwind. breakfast was decent, though the selection wasn't huge. there’s a cafe downstairs with nice coffee too.

    superb breakfast
    free transport pass
    friendly staff
    poor wi-fi

    i had a great stay at the continental hotel during my recent return to lausanne, exceeding my expectations. the breakfast was superb, featuring a wide variety, which made mornings enjoyable. also, getting a free public transport pass was a nice touch for exploring the area easily.

    the wi-fi could be better in rooms.
