Château d'Ouchy
Place du Port, Lausanne, Switzerland
50 Rooms
Contemporary Classic & Lively
The mere mention of Switzerland might conjure images of pristine alpine lakes, soaring summits with majestic rocky peaks, and stately castles that seem plucked straight from a fairytale. And as whimsical as those images seem, they aren’t pure fantasy; in fact, you can find this picturesque postcard world at Château d’Ouchy. Nestled on the shores of Lake Geneva in Lausanne, this spectacular lakeside castle hotel can trace its roots to the year 1117 — and now, nearly a thousand years later, it’s recognized as a Swiss cultural heritage site.
The interior accommodations reflect the castle’s majestic and storied history. Rooms are spacious and feature massive floor-to-ceiling windows framed by ornately patterned curtains. Some feature views of Lake Geneva and the Alps, or show off the castle’s ancient exposed-brick walls. The four suites are on another level entirely — each has a unique look and feel, but many feature gorgeous 19th-century neo-gothic revival furniture, shining hardwood floors, and in at least one case, 360-degree panoramic views of Lake Geneva’s shores and the surrounding mountains. And of course, all rooms come with little luxuries like flatscreen TVs, air conditioning and free wi-fi.
Not to be overlooked are the hotel’s bar and restaurant. The 57° Grill’s atmosphere is surprisingly modern and casual, while the bar, situated in one of the oldest parts of the structure, blends modern mixology with ancient history. Here, guests can indulge in high-end wines or enjoy cigars from Cuba or the Dominic Republic surrounded by the structure’s original stone walls.
