Auberge du Raisin

Beautiful hotel in Cully Auberge du raisin is a beautiful hotel in the lovely town of Cully. The hotel is absolutely charming, as well as the staff. Yu and Alexandra were extremely helpful, and made me feel very welcome. I adore this hotel, and cannot wait to return.

Third stay - in the wonderful old Lakeside village of Cully in the heart of the Lavaux perfectly situated for exploring the shores and towns of the region. This wonderful majestic old building is full of charm and character with beautiful old rooms with modern bathrooms - loads of space and most comfortable...excellent beds. Breakfast is excellent and the restaurant is much sort after. Excellent value - would highly recommend and hope to return soon.

Stayed here a number of times before and as ever the hotel delivers. It typifies what you should expert from a small Swiss hotel in a delightful village. The bedroom was well proportioned and spacious. Service was excellent, the place as clean as a whistle. And the restaurant served a good evening dinner and breakfast. Perfect

Unexpected Closure I chose this hotel in part for the beautiful and well rated restaurant. Unfortunately, when I arrived, I learned that both the restaurant and front desk were closed for the next several months. This was not stated when I booked. Accordingly, I had to check in at another hotel down the road and let myself into both the hotel and my room. It was a bit disorienting. That said, the room itself was comfortable with a nice bathroom.

Divine! Loved our huge top floor suite under the rafters. Clean and romantic looking out the window over the rooftops of the village. We were in room #36 Syrah. Warm welcome. Internet connections were extremely unreliable and sweet receptionists were constantly assisting us. There is no designated parking for the hotel so you may need to get creative. We did not eat in the Auberge restaurant so can’t comment on that, but do encourage you to book dinner reservations wherever you choose as the restaurants we visited were very full. The hotel is within easy walking distance of any place in the village. Train station took us for a day trip to Lausanne. We also hiked to the neighboring wine village of Epesses. A fantastic stay on the lake!

It has been weeks since we left the exquisite Auberge Du Raisin, and I still think about our magical visit, wishing I were still there. Our large, beautiful room and bathroom were so comfortable and well-appointed. The amount of space we had is unusual in Europe. The housekeepers kept everything so clean and the hotel itself is decorated beautifully. What really made our experience stand out was the incredible help of Ilenia during our week-long stay. Whatever we needed, she was there to help us. Nothing was too much to ask and she was always warm, caring, and generous. We also appreciated Jean-Luis, the restaurant manager, who was also so kind, generous and helpful towards us. We grew to love both of these special people who helped to make our stay so meaningful. The town of Cully is a feast for the eyes, with some great restaurants and lovely places to explore. The hotel is very close to the train so you can visit a nearby city if you have the urge. If you rent a car, know that there is a charge to park during the day (not at night) and finding parking can be a challenge. This is not just Cully but also other places we visited in Switzerland. Finally, if you are arriving at the hotel on a Sunday or Monday, make sure you ask beforehand where you will need to check in, as the hotel is closed on those days. We made some friends in Lausanne, who invited us to stay at their home in the future. I thanked them but said we will ONLY stay at Auberge Du Raisin. That's our home.
