It was constructed to provide five star accommodations during the Swiss national exposition in 2002. The pavilions are built on stilts and all give view over the lake and the Alps. Half of them are on the... More

Neuchatel is not the usual tourist attraction in Switzerland but we were looking for something special and unique for a short birthday weekend. The Palafitte certainly did not disappoint! Our suite was located on the actual Lac de Neuchatel (some suites sit on the water). The view directly onto the water and the Alps, was like being in the Maldives... More

1 LOCATION: The hotel is on the outskirt of Neufchatel, You will need a car or a taxi to get there. 2 BUILDING: The main building isn't that impressive. It is what you would expect from a usual upmarket hotel. However; it is when you visit your rooms that your are absolutely stunned! I love it! 3 WELCOME: Great service.... More

The Hotel Palafitte is a perfect place for a romantic weekend away. The rooms are built onto the lake which gives it a very special feeling. It is wonderful to lay on the terrace, enjoying the calmness of the water being tucked in a cosy blanket. We dont particularly find Neuchâtel a very charming city but if you stay only... More

The room has the feel of a resort, not something you'd expect in Switzerland. View over the lake is beautiful. More
