"The Freddie Mercury" Hotel
Family balcony rooms with genuine lake views
About this hotel
"The Freddie Mercury" Hotel leans into Montreux's music heritage in its branding, but the practical offer for families is straightforward: family rooms with private bathrooms, balconies, and lake views as standard rather than an upsell, plus soundproofing that matters when a tired toddler needs an early bedtime while the rest of the town winds up for the evening. The minibar and free toiletries cut down on packing for a multi-day Aquaparc trip, small conveniences that add up across a week away. A modern restaurant and terrace give an on-site dinner option for evenings when nobody wants to venture out after a full day of slides, and the lift makes moving between floors with a stroller or water park bags considerably easier than a walk-up property. Free Wi-Fi throughout rounds out a stay aimed at practical family comfort with a lake view included.

- Soundproofed rooms
- Lift for stroller access
Our take
This hotel suits families who want a genuine lake-view balcony room as standard rather than a paid upgrade, along with soundproofing for early bedtimes after a tiring Aquaparc day. Families chasing heritage Belle-Epoque architecture over modern comfort should look at one of Montreux's older grand hotels instead, since this property leans modern rather than period.
- ✓Book the family room configuration directly, balcony and lake view come standard here rather than as a costly separate upgrade.
- ✓Use the soundproofing to your advantage for an early toddler bedtime while older family members stay up a little longer.
- ✓Eat at the on-site modern restaurant on your most tired evening, it saves finding somewhere new after a full Aquaparc day.

Why guests love itSoundproofing sounds like a small detail until you have a toddler who needs to sleep at seven while the town outside is still lively, and this hotel delivered on that better than we expected. The balcony lake view came as standard rather than an upsell, which felt like genuine value after comparing prices elsewhere in Montreux, and the minibar saved a late-evening trip out for snacks after a long Aquaparc day.
