Make the Most of Your Lausanne Stay

A city built on hills and culture

Lausanne rises dramatically from Lake Geneva in tiers of medieval streets, belle époque boulevards, and modern architecture, earning comparisons to San Francisco for its steep topography. The 12th-century Gothic cathedral commands the skyline from the historic Cité district, while at lake level, Ouchy offers promenades lined with grand hotels. As the Olympic Capital, the city showcases its commitment to excellence through the world-class Olympic Museum and Plateforme 10, the striking contemporary arts district by the main station.

Culinary excellence and student energy

The dining scene punches above the city's size, with Anne-Sophie Pic's 2-Michelin-starred restaurant at the Beau-Rivage Palace and the legendary 3-starred Restaurant de l'Hôtel de Ville in nearby Crissier. Lausanne avoids stuffiness thanks to its university population, which energizes neighborhoods like Le Flon—a transformed industrial district filled with innovative restaurants and rooftop bars. Hotels provide complimentary Lausanne Transport Cards granting unlimited metro access, including the steep M2 line climbing from lake to city center.

Gateway to the region

Trains from Geneva Airport reach Lausanne in 50 minutes. The city serves as an ideal base for exploring UNESCO-listed Lavaux vineyards, medieval Gruyères, and Evian across the lake. Members can use miles for accommodations from lakeside luxury to boutique hotels in the historic center.
