Royal Plaza Montreux

Overnight Royal Plaza guests have unlimited access to the indoor pool, jacuzzi, sauna, hammam and gym. For a visit without staying, Institut Zen Ô Spa offers a 3-hour adult admission at CHF 45 by appointment and subject to availability, covering the pool, jacuzzi, sauna, hammam and gym. Body treatments include access to these facilities afterwards.¹²

Covered parking costs CHF 25 per 24 hours for overnight guests, rising to CHF 40 during the Montreux Jazz Festival. There are 3 EV charging stations, paid through evpass.¹

I would choose the American buffet at Café Bellagio, 7am–10am, from CHF 30 per adult. The simpler Express buffet at Sunset Bar has bread, pastries, cereals, juice and hot drinks for CHF 15 at the same hours. Free breakfast up to age 18 applies to stays booked on the hotel website with breakfast included.¹²³

Rooms run from the 20 or 25 m² Standard to the 340 m² Royal Suite, with a 120 m² terrace and jacuzzi; the Deluxe, 35 m², has a furnished balcony. My choice would be the 45 m² Lakeview Junior Suite for its furnished balcony and living area; the White Junior Suite has the same area, a double bed and a small terrace on the second floor.¹²³

For dinner I would choose Café Bellagio, serving from 7pm with last orders 9.30pm, brought forward to 9pm from January to March. Sinatra’s Bar opens 3pm October–March and 2pm April–September, closing 11pm or midnight on July–September Fridays and Saturdays.¹²

Google Hotels, read on 19 October 2026 for 2 adults, shows CHF 175 for 16 November 2026, CHF 180 for 14 December 2026 and CHF 206 for 12 January 2027. From 22 to 24 November a night runs from CHF 158 to CHF 159, each taken alone, whatever the room.¹

For a wedding, Debussy seats 90 at a banquet and Renaissance 200. For a private or company banquet, Royal Party costs from CHF 140 per person: a 1-hour aperitif with 3 amuse-bouches, 3 courses, unlimited wine, water and coffee, and a private room, with more privileges from 60 people.¹²

On Google, 64 guests talk about value: 18 positive, 42 negative and 4 mixed. Some find the price good for sleeping by the lake; others find rooms and furnishings too dated for the rate.¹

The indoor pool is 12×6 metres and kept at 26°C. Children under 12 and non-swimmers need an accompanying adult aged 18 or over; sauna and hammam are for ages 16 and over. The pool is closed 18–29 January 2027 inclusive.¹²³

Royal Plaza stands on the Montreux quays at Avenue Claude Nobs 7. I would choose the lake side. On 2–17 July 2027, the Montreux Jazz Festival takes place immediately outside the hotel, with evening and night noise audible in bedrooms.¹²

Yes: nights are on sale in every month from October 2026 to September 2027. Only the spa and pool close, from 18 to 29 January 2027.¹

I would save time for the pool and jacuzzi. For time together indoors, Sunset Bar and the lobby have board games. Wi-Fi is free throughout the hotel and room service is available 24 hours.¹²³⁴

Dinner on 31 December 2026 begins at 7pm and costs CHF 160 per person. It starts with 3 amuse-bouches and a glass of Laurent-Perrier La Cuvée Brut, followed by foie gras, a lobster-and-scallop croquette, granita, Swiss beef fillet, cheese, chocolate dessert and petits fours.¹
