This is a truly charming and historic hotel with very welcoming staff. The views over the lake from our room’s balcony were spectacular. We did the prix fixe dinner and it was amazing. Excellent breakfast too

The Hôtel Masson is nestled in a quiet, leafy setting, and offers the experience of a charming, timeless stay in Montreux. Immerse yourself in this authentic Belle Epoque-style hotel with all modern comforts, located just a 5-minute walk from Chillon Castle. Overlooking Lake Geneva, the elegant and splendid building with its wisteria-covered balconies dates back to 1829 and is surrounded by a large garden with century-old trees. It is the oldest hotel in the region and a proud member of Swiss Historic Hotels. Its interior reflects the timeless elegance of bygone days. It features lounges furnished with original paintings and furniture dating back to the 19th century. A shaft of light floods the opulent granite staircase, and the oak parquet flooring adds to the Masson's nostalgic atmosphere. The charming rooms are unique, with picturesque furnishings and floral motifs. They are equipped with contemporary amenities, including a bathroom renovated in 2024, cable TV, Wi-Fi and a mini-bar. Overlooking the lake, the dining room features a large tiled stove and original Viennese chairs. You can enjoy fresh bread and homemade jams for breakfast. Classic international cuisine is served in the evenings and most ingredients are sourced from local markets. The Hôtel Masson also has a small spa with a sauna. You can also relax on the sun loungers in the garden while admiring the view of the Alps and Lake Geneva. Veytaux-Chillon train station is just 820 feet from the Hôtel Masson.
