Overview
Today, the hotel is a limited company. Its majority shareholder is the Sandoz Family Foundation. Since the beginning of the 1990s, a major refurbishment programme has been under way. Its objectives are simply to preserve the hotel's architectural authenticity and to make absolutely certain that everything that made it famous in the first place is in perfect order. The first phase of the programme lasted 10 months, from 1992 to 1993. This was undertaken in extremely close cooperation with the Department of Swiss Historic Monuments. The considerable complexity of the project necessitated the use of highly specialised craftsmen for the restoration of the dome of the main public room, the exceptionally fine murals and the ceilings of the Salle Sandoz. And that's without taking into account the frescos, stained glass and other historically important objects. With the second phase, a total of 100 million Swiss francs has been earmarked for the complete refurbishment and refurnishing of the hotel's 169 rooms and suites. The new "Cinq Mondes" Spa has cost 12 million francs alone. Work still carries on; for as long as the hotel welcomes guests and however far into the future, the generations that follow will be able to enjoy the ultimate in comfort, luxury and the most up to the minute technology available. A last word about some of our world-famous guests who have so enjoyed our hospitality … Victor Hugo, Camille Saint-Saëns, Charlie Chaplin, Coco Chanel, Gary Cooper, Sacha Guitry, the Emperor Hirohito, Nelson Mandela, King Hussein of Jordan, Phil Collins... There are, and were, many more of course, but our wish is to entertain you like any world-class hotel. And not to bore you with lists!

Review - Stay at Beau Rivage, Lausanne
 | | Overall rating: |  | Value rating : | |
The ambiance surrounding the hotel was so romantic and pleasing to the eyes. The ladies at the reception were ever friendly and eagerly gave my lady and I a grand tour of the premises and all the services at hand. The concierge, smiling and friendly had all tourist information to share and gave us some very good tips on excursions within Lausanne and in the nearby Zermatt area. The view from the patio was breathtaking and the placid water of the lake were a grand foredrop to the towering Alps on the far side.
The downside was that the air conditioning was not up to par with the hot temperatures and thus made the rooms a bit uncomfortable. The room size was a bit small though well appointed.
Overall, a grand experience.
