In a great locating. Parking very tight and only a few spaces. Breakfast was lovely and the service was great. Check in was also great and the host was very helpful. The beds weren't very comfortable and very creeky however, so it was hard to sleep.

We loved staying at Hôtel Masson! My husband and I are fans of historic hotels and this one is a jewel of a place. As the oldest hotel in the area, it is simply charming. The rooms are spacious while being cozy. The beds are comfortable, and the bar/salon is classic and elegant. We found the staff warm and friendly, especially Karine who took such excellent care of us. Dinner was delicious. Only positive things to say about Hôtel Masson!

This hotel is a lovely property. The staff/owners are most accommodating and personable. They did an amazing job restoring the original details of this 175 year old hotel, yet they managed to add all the modern amenities and features. Would love to stay there again next time we are in the area.

Very nice historical hotel. The restaurant was great. They have an evening set menu each day, but can accommodate changes for dietary needs, which they did for us. Very professional service and great advice for things to do in the area.

A fantastic place full of history!
The staff is absolutely amazing, it makes a huge difference when you see that people love their job. We felt welcome and cared for all the time.
Our room was beautiful and full of character - as well as all communal areas. I took a moment to read about the history of the hotel, and it's absolutely fascinating. Knowing that it's the oldest hotel in Montreux where a lot of great people used to stay (including Victor Hugo), makes it even more special.

I think it was just the time of year with the Jazz festival and time of week on the weekend but this was quite an expensive hotel stay. I think it would have been nice to at least include a fan in the room for that price. The hotel and grounds are beautiful and well maintained. Breakfast was good.
