We selected the Hotel Regina for our stay in Lausanne, based on Rick Steve's recommendation in his…read moremost recent 2017 France book. His recommendation was spot on, and the hotel worked out very well for us.
The location of the hotel is fantastic. It is just a few blocks from the metro, which we used many times per day. It is also situation in an area with several shops, restaurants and grocery store. The market is nearby that is on Saturday mornings.
5 stars: location. You can't beat the central spot near so many things you want and need.
5 stars: service. As a family run hotel, the service is strong. They are warm and helpful and speak english quite well.
4 stars: breakfast. They offer a breakfast with the room and it is so nice to have more options than just pastries and espresso at most cafes and restaurants. We actually had brewed coffee, and lots of eat, each morning. A hard find in Europe!
3 stars: room. It was clean, but it was small. For a moderate priced hotel it was what we expected, but tiny bathrooms and rooms are hard with two people. Especially with limited mirrors and no bathroom plugs for american hair tools;-).
All in all, I would stay here again and recommend to others.
