The drive to Lausanne

Along the A1 motorway via Bern and Fribourg to Lake Geneva — open all year and the fastest connection to western Switzerland.

Good to know: meetings by the lake

Many of our guests travel to meetings at the IOC, EPFL, IMD or companies in the region. We time your arrival to your appointment and, on request, wait for the return journey.

Arriving in Lausanne and Ouchy

Lausanne is built on a steep slope: the old town and cathedral at the top, and Ouchy down by the lake with the Beau-Rivage Palace and the Olympic Museum. We drive right to your hotel or meeting at whatever level it is — no stairs, no metro.

Athletissima, Festival de la Cité and the grape harvest

In summer the Athletissima athletics meeting brings world stars to the stadium, and in July the Festival de la Cité fills the old town. In autumn the Lavaux harvests its grapes — a lovely time for a drive through the vineyard terraces between Lausanne and Montreux.

Your hotel in Lausanne

We drive up to the Beau-Rivage Palace, the Lausanne Palace, the Royal Savoy, the Hotel Angleterre or your hotel in town.

On the way

On the way, Bern, Fribourg or a drive through the Lavaux vineyards are worth a stop.
