Château d’Ouchy

A tranquil respite overlooking the lake close to the centre of Lausanne

Nestled on the banks of Lake Geneva with magnificent views across the water, Château d’Ouchy is a striking neo-gothic castle reconstructed in the late 1800s into a hotel. A recent renovation has sensitively brought this gem back to life which now provides 50 delightfully unique rooms and suites, a superb restaurant, an inviting wellness area with a hamman and sauna and its own boat for lake excursions.

Château d’Ouchy’s fabulous setting ensures peace and tranquillity with stylish rooms and suites that retain many period features. The décor and furnishings are crisp and contemporary with smart wood floors that highlight the original marble and stone.

Enjoy lunch on the restaurant terrace overlooking Lake Geneva and the Vaudois Alps in the distance. Spend the afternoon on a trip around the lake on Château d’Ouchy’s private boat. Alternatively, explore Lausanne’s Old Town with its cathedral and narrow, cobbled streets.


Enjoy your stay!

A unique and beautiful hotel in Lausanne lakeside

I highly recommend this beautifully decorated hotel if you want to stay in Lausanne.

Great location - beautiful lake view and close to tram

We enjoyed our stay, booking a lake view room - waking up to the beautiful view was so relaxing and great for our vacation.

Food And Drinks

Provence cuisine or that of neighboring Italy, but plays on taste combinations between anchovies, garlic, onion, chilli and olive oil. Sometimes considered as rustic, sometimes sophisticated, one thing is sure – this original cuisine genuinely stands out from its Mediterranean counterparts. An ideal menu to choose at the Château d’Ouchy restaurant is the seasonal menu, which is a balanced meal including vegetables from small independent suppliers, wild fish, farmhouse meats, traditional cheeses and an iced or fruit-based dessert. Our restaurant is open from 7am to 10:30am for breakfast, from 12pm to 2pm and from 7pm to 10pm.
