We stayed at this hotel for visiting EPFL only one night. Location was quite far from metro station due to the roads being blocked. We took longer time to walk with three luggage. Room was clean but small but it was okay for short stay. Receptionist was friendly.

Good quality hotel. Better than anything else around that zone. High quality and location is convenient.

The room is spacious and located in a quiet area. Free parking is available for those driving. However, there are not many restaurant options nearby. It’s just a 5-minute walk from the hotel to Lake Lausanne.

It's quite good. Breakfast is the best meal of the day because lunch is sandwiches at the conference, and dinner isn't provided.

The hotel is located next to the EPFL and not far from Lake Geneva, just across a residential street. The hotel is well-equipped and clean. The front desk service was very attentive. I was grateful to the front desk lady who helped me change my room upon check-in. The rest of the staff, both in the restaurant and at the housekeeping department, were also very friendly. The hotel restaurant had a delicious dinner, and the breakfast was acceptable. The hotel also provides free public transport tickets.

Lausanne Starling Hotel is located in Lausanne, the capital of the canton of Vaud, Switzerland. It is very close to the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, a 5-minute walk away, and is close to the campus. The hotel facilities are very good and the environmental hygiene is excellent. Some of the guys at the front desk speak very poor English. It is recommended to ask for someone with better English to check in.
