    jacuzzi bath

    Couples looking for a romantic escape

    Enjoyed the jacuzzi bath while gazing at the lake, it was magical.

    It wasn't exactly cheap but still reasonable for what we got.

    Thank you very much for a memorable stay during a business trip. The units are nice, wonderful on the water. Stunning and awesome location, it's set close to the lake and the alps and the restaurant. Also, Southover Grange Gardens is a stone's throw away.

    A Picturesque Escape by the Lake

    Staying in the Lake Pavillon was lovely! The fine private terrace overlooking the water created the perfect setting for morning coffee. Though the restaurant service was lacking, the gourmet meals made up for it. Book a lake room for unrivaled views!

    Le Silex, where you can eat, is within short walking distance to the hotel. A private kitchen was included. Reasonable base for a weekend in Neuchatel.

    Almost perfect.

    The lake pavillon offered fine views of lake neuchâtel. The staff were attentive, and the breakfast selection was delicious, exceeding my expectations during this relaxing break.

    mosquito issues made outdoor relaxation tough.

    cleanliness issues

    great location , but cleanliness needs attention

    The lake pavilion experience was really good. Waking up to the lake view each morning. The massage in the pavilion was expertly done, alleviating my back pain and adding a level of convenience I appreciated. The free paddleboards created a fun and unique way to enjoy the water, which I found relaxing and refreshing.

    The outdoor areas showed signs of infrequent cleaning, noticeable and detracted from the overall experience.

    Very relaxing, felt as though we were on holiday somewhere exotic even though we were within a stone's throw from Neuchatel, the restaurant was excellent as was the service, the facilities provided in the room were of a very high standard and they had thought of everything. We actually asked to upgrade to a Lake Pavillion room once we were there.

    The heating system was on full and could not be turned off -- the only comfortable way to sleep was to have the main window wide open all night. It was also too expensive -- only affordable on the basis that this was a one-off and we would not go back due to the cost.
