5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 May 2013 NEW

This is what a five star hotel should be about. A location on the edge of the lake, a hotel that has not come out of an architect´s giant lego box and service which is so good, you fail to realize that it is there, so smoothly do the well-oiled cogs turn. The bar is situated with a view onto... More

I've been here twice on business and both times loved my stay. It's a gorgeous and sophisticated hotel with exceptional quality and service throughout. It's not cheap, eg the restaurant and drinks, but the quality justifies the prices, and it is Switzerland! For those that have 5mins spare, Waldens the Chocolatiere in Neuchatel centre is perfect and a 5min walk... More

A trip to Neuchâtel gave us the occasion to stay at the Beau-Rivage. We enjoyed every minute of it. The staff was very nice and attentive and the food at the Restaurant was exceptional. The view over the lake and sugarcoated mountains in the back was amazing. The large room was very cozy and comfortable. We will be back!

Exactly what you would hope for staying in Switzerland for top dollar. Highly recommended for business trips or vacations. Location could not be better - perfectly situated on the lake and across the street from the main square. Bus and tram are right beside.

This is a strange review. The hotel is all class - impeccable service, friendly & efficient staff, and the location on the lake is unsurpassed. The bedrooms are large and spacious, with equally large and spacious bathrooms. The meeting and convention service is top class too. So I have to wonder why they spoil it all with rock hard, springless... More

Just sitting right now at the Beau-Rivage in Neuchatel, the only place to eat a nice dessert on a Sunday afternoon.

My second time here and unlikely to be my last. Very attentive, professional service.

We stayed at the Beau Rivage on our last visit to Neuchatel, and it compares favourably to hotels in Europe, in general. The rooms are smaller than most North Americans are probably used to, but they are well appointed and clean. Much thought has gone into the decor of this hotel, and the modern interior manages to both differ from,... More
