Fodor's Expert Review Carlton Lausanne Boutique Hôtel

A quiet tree-lined street in one of Lausanne's nicest neighborhoods masks this lodging's proximity to the train station. Rococo-style architecture is emphasized by embossed wallpapers, textured upholstery, and sweeping draperies in the nicely decorated guest rooms. The marble lobby and guest-room baths are polished to a high gloss; other aspects of innkeeping are equally as bright. Relax with a glass of wine in the French-influenced Carlton's Bar, knowing you are minutes from the Métro and the lakefront promenade.
