Find the Cheap Riviera-Pays-d'Enhaut District Hotels

The Roc et Neige hotel is located in the wonderfully picturesque Chateaux D'Oex village surrounded by high mountains and lush green hillside. I stayed at the hotel for a week as part of a group tour with Newmarket Holidays and the hotel was used as a base for daily trips to the surrounding areas of Montreux, Interlaken, Fribourg, Gstaad and Gruyere. The hotel has an idyllic location with breathtaking views all around. The hotel rooms are cosy, functional and clean with maid service each day. High speed internet and good wifi coverage ensures that you can keep in contact and use higher bandwidth services such as Netflix and Youtube. Remember that the Swiss electrical system uses the 3 Swiss pin socket rather than the euro adaptor but local adaptors can be hired from the hotel if you forget them. The hotel staff were very helpful and polite which made the stay enjoyable. Our package tour included breakfast and evening meals on five out of our seven night stay, enabling us to try out the local restaurants in the village on the nights when the hotel restaurant was closed (Tues & Thurs). Evening meals were set menu and superb and the chef does an excellent job to create well presented and tasty three course meals. Breakfast is continental style with fresh breads, rolls, croissants, eggs, yoghurt, cereals meat, juices and a range of teas and coffees. The hotel also catered for one person in our party who was on a GF menu. The hotel is located approx 10 mins walk from the village high street where there are a range of local shops, cafes, a few restaurants, tourist information and a local train station. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Roc et Neige and the beautiful village of Chateaux D'Oex.

We stayed for 2 nights in mid-May 2023. The hotel is just a five to seven minute walk from the Saanan Train Station and one station before Gstaad, if you come from Geneva, as we did. We reached around 9 pm in the evening and were allotted room 21, which is the room with the balcony on the 2nd floor; ( you will notice from the hotel photo), is perhaps one of the best rooms, being a corner room with balcony and lovely views. The dinner was just a vegan burger and a salad. Adequate. The bedrooms were entirely timbered, comfortable with sufficient storage and in-room heating from a radiator, placed under the front window. Toilet was a bit small and no bathroom slippers were provided. We requested but was told as it was a 3 star property, hence they did not provide it. Breakfast was the usual continental, with the hot items being only boiled eggs and choice of coffee/tea. Rest was cold meat, fruit, cereals, cheese and bread. Not the best which we have had, but acceptable. A few more hot choices especially in the eggs choice or sausages would have helped. There was only 1 lady who was looking after the breakfast area, the restaurant and the reception. Perhaps, because of low occupancy. However, what I wish to compliment the hotel staff about, was their help and co-operation in forwarding some clothes which we had mistakenly left behind. We connected with the hotel the very evening after we left and they confirmed that they had them. Their cost was not much but they had an emotional connect with us. We asked them to keep them with them till we could decide the way forward. As luck would have it, some family members are visiting Switzerland at the time of writing this review (in early July 2023) and staying for a few days in Bern. The staff, on our request, packed and sent the stuff to the Bern hotel after coordinating with the Bern hotel, on phone. They never asked us for any payment though we were willing to pay for it. This is outstanding customer service.

Absolutely stunning place. The only downside was that I was here for a conference and despite touring the place, didn't get to try the pool, spa and the awesome infrastructure (bike, backpack and other equipment loan, guided walks, etc). The setting is absolutely stunning and everything from the cool lobby bar area to the awesome kids lounge is top notch. I'm making plans to come back with the family: summer or winter, it looks like the perfect place for a break.

They amaze you in every way. All of them smile with warm heart and you don't feel like going back. Location is perfect with serene river flowing at a walking distance. Rooms are spacious and neat, clean & well maintained with all the necessary amenities. The Food at ”Pizzeria” is delicious. It is 30 mins from Glacier 3000 and bus stop is 5 mins away. They provide free transfer both ways. What more we can ask for? Definitely will be going back again! Other Swiss hotels should learn from you.

Amazing newly renovated and in best location in Gstaad! Great room and views! Staff were super friendly - Ivan and all in reception. Very helpful and made us and everything feel good.
