The story of the Lausanne Palace begins in the "Belle Epoque"​, an euphoric time for hotels. It was inaugurated on June 19th 1915 and ever since has been closely linked to Lausanne, being an integral part of the city's life. Much more than a hotel, the Lausanne Palace is an institution, a meeting place for the citizens of Lausanne as well as for international high society. It is not by chance alone that since 1980 the Presidents of the International Olympic Committee have taken up residence there.Over the last 15 years, nearly 60 million francs have been invested in the various improvements and renovations, allowing the hotel to offer every modern convenience whilst still retaining its "Belle Epoque"​ atmosphere.Throughout its history, the Lausanne Palace has welcomed royalty, celebrities and politicians from the four corners of the world and has witnessed some historic meetings. Its legendary hospitality and personalised service make it a reference for luxury and conviviality, a meeting of tradition and avant-gardisme: a luxury hotel that pays tribute to its 5 stars by putting its guests'​ comfort and well-being above all other considerations, a legend that has always moved with the times while foreseeing its guests'​ expectations.While continuing to forge ahead, the Lausanne Palace remains true to its reputation. This magnificent hotel, reflecting the greatest values of the luxury hotel business, remains on course towards evermore innovative horizons.
