Fairmont Le Montreux Palace

What the classifiers highlight

Montreux's biggest hotel wears a sprawling Belle Époque facade on the lakefront, though not every room shares the view: the best face the water through French doors onto small balconies, while cheaper ones look at the mountains and feel tighter. MICHELIN mentions the Amrita spa and Funky Claude's Bar, named for the founder of the Montreux Jazz Festival.
