Montreaux, Riviera of the Lake

SWITZERLAND | Monday, 14 June 2010 | Views [436]

Well named, this place is very picturesque and the walks along the lake are different to Annecy, mainly because it is higher on the swiss side of Lake Geneva, and then higher mountains are snow capped. Lots of 5 star hotels, lots of cashed up people.Famous Jazz festival held here every year, and I booked the little Tralala Jazz theme hotel - a 3 star B & B with themed bedrooms. I had some black guy playing a sax behind the bed. But the rooms were lovely and new, and I had a partial view to the lake and mountains. Very happy here, very serene. Lovely promenade walk at twilight, nice Swiss folk out walking their dogs.

Off to Zermatt tomorrow!
