We booked this boutique hotel as part of a self created hills and lakes summer holiday in Switzerland (second part was on Lake Lucerne).This pretty hillside hotel proved to be a great Trip Advisor find. We were nervous about selecting a B&B style hotel which was a different experience for us, but we had a tremendous holiday. Francis and his... More

I have known this Hotel since before it was renovated by the current owner. Back then it was a sad , almost derelict building but in such a beautiful spot is was crying out for someone to bring it back to life. The current owner and his wife (refugees from the "big city life of Paris") took on the ground... More

We would reiterate all of the glowing comments about Hotel du Pillon: its beautiful decor; relaxing and homely atmosphere; warm and genuine staff; great food and stunning views. Francis welcomes you into this late 19 century chalet hotel with a skilful mix of friendliness and respect that gives you space to enjoy your holiday as you choose whilst feeling very... More

We stayed in the Hotel du Pillon for 3 days over Christmas, including Christmas day. I also proposed to my girlfriend there. In these circumstances, you would hope for a very special hotel indeed. It did not disappoint. The hotel instantly felt like home (or how you would like your home to be) from the very first day. It is... More

We spent two nights au Relais du Silence. Had breakfast in the sun, a nice kitchen at our disposition as well as an excellent service. Un hotel de charme with a nice view on les diablerets. The owner is a charming and funny guy and very interesting to talk to. each room shows a different 'swiss style'. We felt at... More

We went there for a "knitting week-end" and booked 8 of the 12 rooms so we had most of the hotel for us. Everything was great from the location (beautiful view, quiet place, walking distance from Les Diablerets), to the food (great cook, good quantities, good prices and very good food) or the rooms (lovely decoration, great beds, clean, shower...

We regret to spend one night only, we would have stayed longer but couldn't. The hotel is perfectly located with a amazing view to the mountain. It is perfectly maintained, very clean and decorated with taste. The room was very comfortable with a balcony and all needed amenities. We had diner and lunch, both prepared with local, natural and tasty... More

An excellent hotel; the room was very spacious, the view from the balcony was excellent and the breakfast the next morning was the second best of our entire trip, which is saying quite a lot believe me. The common area was very warm and inviting, it would be an interesting place to be during the busy winter ski season, though... More

The owners describe this as a 5 star B&B rather than a hotel, but it's much more than that. Frances, the owner, sold one of his Parisian art galleries to fund the rennovation of this old Swiss finishing school and the evidence of his artistic flair is to be seen throughout the beautiful lounges and sitting rooms downstairs, all of...

We came out from london for some late-season skiing if we could find it. The hotel was perfect for what we wanted - very friendly and the people who run it are really enthusiastic about the area and are totally helpful with advice and logistics. On top of which the food really was awesome. Highly recommended! More
