What was it like? A box in a box in a box, amazement after delights. Floating on the celestial lake filled with morning mist with only the water hens to wake you, Soothing lights entering your luxury wooden abode on stilts to rock you to sleep, which you reluctantly leave for an aperitif by a wood fire followed by exquisite...

I ended up in this 5 star hotel in Neuchatel, after finding nothing else in a booked-out Neuchatel. It lives up to its 5 star reputation and has impeccable staff with a completely trouble free check-in. You´ll be shown to your room (which is really a box sitting either above or on the lake) by a member of staff. Make... More

This is a great hotel situated on the Lake of Neuchatel. When I mean on the lake it really is ON the lake. Built for the Expo 2002 it was constructed on pylons overs the water. You can swim directly from your room (but maybe not in December). Views are unbeatable looking at the Alps shimmering above the water. This... More

We stoped by for a coffe, because we were staying in another city. We had a lovelly coffe at the deck with a gorgeous Apls View and some baloons flying around. Would recomend for everybody, at least stop by and drink or eat something.

We have been returning yearly to this hotel for 8 years.....we come every fall for antique brocante nearby. It is one of my favorite places to stay for the atmosphere. On a sunny day you can see the Alps behind the lake and be able to swim from your balcony. Each room over the lake feels quite private due to... More

The day you book, make sure you place a bet with the weather forecast... It is a smashing environment once in your room, because the rooms are spacious, they have some unique features eg: the ladder to go directly from your balcony into the lake, the wall between your bed and the bath that flips... it is difficult to be...

Avoid during the summer, airco is a miserable joke just like the rest of the 2002 silly engineering , if it's summer your sun baked pavilion will be horribly hot, you won't sleep and if you open a window you will allow the lake's mosquitos to feast on you. Nets have many holes. Dinner was pricely but good. Breakfast is... More

An amaizing terrace with view over the Neuchatel lake. Situated outside of the city center. Surprising design and a really unique experience. We took a lunch with daily menu, nice quality with creative twist but really small portions.

We had the chance to stay one night a few days ago at the Palafitte hotel, and this was really one of our best hotel experience. All the staff is very professional and courteous, and the rooms are just incredible. Luxurious equipped, large and exquisitely designed; you feel unique. Unique as the location, on the lake and facing the beautiful... More
