Disappointing!
The hotel has a stunning view and I had longer planned to stay there but I was greatly disappointed! The interior of the hotel, including lobby and reception, are old and worn out, the rooms are small, with mediocre decoration, small bathroom and shower very small! Few and poorly located electric plugs and switches that didn’t make sense (you had to have the main switch to the ceiling lamp located by the main door on in order for all the bed lamps and electric plugs to work!!!). The restaurant, the only part that looked very modern and stunning view were full and not even hotel guests could eat there! overall rather overpriced for such a poor hotel. It is more like a 3* hotel.

Beautifully set up in the vineyards. The rooms are simple but clean. Friendly service and helpful staff. The breakfast overlooking the vineyards is wonderful.

Would definitely stay again!!
Overall excellent. Room was a little on the small side but it was a single so to be expected I suppose (fully booked out for double). Very helpful staff, gave more bottles of water for the room whenever requested at no extra cost. Only downside was that meals were served in a restaurant across the road which wasn't ideal when it was raining, but, the food was outstanding!! And the view was just amazing. Very clean hotel throughout. Would definitely stay again.

The location is a bit Remote when the restaurant of theplace is closed. Also, in cold weather Its a bit far to Wall to various areas of interest. But the place is probably perfekt a warm Day, the view is great and easy to get to.

The evening reception/front desk gentleman provided professional quality service. He greeted me with big smile and joyful energy when I arrived between 9pm and 10pm. He quickly checked me in then assisted me with my luggage and guided me to my room in the dark. My experience with the spa reception was good. When I stopped by the spa to explore what's available at your spa, the receptionist politely informed me that she doesn't speak English. But she used a smartphone translator app to assist me. That's good quality customer service. The disappointing experiences I had were with the daytime front desk receptionists. One lady and one gentleman. I informed the lady on the 2nd day that the info sheets provided in my room regarding Le Deck's hours and the bar hours are incorrect. She politely informed me that they should be up-to-date/current. I informed her the sheets, both the English and the French versions showed the bar opens from 12am to 2am. The Le Deck is closed after October. She then replied that those are outdated info. They changed them earlier this year. Those sheets have been updated accordingly. She didn't apologize for the incorrect/outdated info provided in my room's guest folder nor offered to provide me an up-to-date/current info sheets. She instead was very firm about the info sheets have been updated and I should have the current info sheets in my room. I showed her the info sheets from my room next morning. She was surprised to see the

Great stay
This is an excellent small hotel with great amenities. It is located high up in the vineyards with an outstanding view looking SE across Lake Geneva towards France. Great breakfast at a reasonable charge in a dining room with good views. We were very comfortable at this hotel and would definitely stay here again. This is not an easy hotel to find so do your google map homework first. We found it easier to approach from theE62 motorway above the town. The Deck bar and restaurant is very popular, so the hotel parking can get quite full at times, but we found spots okay each night.

There was no one at the counter when we arrived to check in. The person at the bar had to go on a trip to find the reception person. Finally after 15mins he came while relaxingly talking on the phone and checked us in. The room we were given was so off the way that we had to drag and lift our large check in bags for a lot of stairs and through a significant distance. No easy way to get luggage from parking lot to room or reception

The service was way below average and they lie about the view -- booking through hotels.com there is not even an option to get a room with a view. So you basically will be staring at the nearby trees.

Superb
The room was modern and offered superior amenities including a heated bathroom floor. Everything about the room was at least 4 star and probably better. Our room had excellent views of the superb surrounding area even though it was much cheaper than rooms that had the best views. Our only complaint was the centrally controlled heating as our room got a bit hot and we couldn't cool it down. The surrounding area is beatiful.

Amazing location with great ambiance
This hotel is located right in the middle of a host of vineyards that span miles of the hillside, and meander from the hilltops right down to the ocean edge (this area is actually a UNESCO heritage designation due to the uniqueness of the vineyards). The view from the side of the hotel facing Lake Geneva was just stunning and rooms on this side of the hotel all had a small balcony. Right across the street (and part of the hotel property), is an outdoor bar with seating for about 50 people that has a really nice setting with an amazing view of the lake and vineyards. Easy to spend an hour or two there, especially near sunset. Parking was plentiful and close to the hotel. The drive to Montreaux or Lausanne is about 15 minutes and we'd highly recommend a tour of the Chateau de Chillon (a large medieval castle), which is just south of Montreaux. If you want to spend some time hopping around wine tasting, head the other direction toward Lausanne. The whole area is really nice. Our room was very clean, and of decent size. We didn't feel crowded. Showers and toilets all worked as they're supposed to. There is a hotel restaurant as part of the patio area across the street (it's pretty expensive), but not many other places close by to eat. This is the part of the review where I will be negative. The service there was terrible. We sat down, were handed menus, and then never saw out waiter again. After waiting for 25 minutes, we got up and left. Very disappointing.

Stunning views from Lavaux terraces
The hotel is one of the best situated options on the Lavaux terraces and also just below route 9. The common areas are clean and The Deck bar across the road is an excellent place to relax and take in the view. Our room was clean but quite sparse and a bit utilitarian for this class of hotel. However, the view and our small outside deck with chairs are clearly what the traveller comes here for. Breakfast, spa access are a la carte.

This was my second time at Le Baron and I had a different room- one with a balcony and direct view/facing of the lake. This time I had dinner at Le Deck which was expensive but a true culinary experience with unique food and an amazing atmosphere and view. Will definitely return again in the future!

Lovely hotel and very comfortable. Only slight down side was that the Spa and Pool were additional and not included which we thought was a bit misleading given there was no mention on this when booking. Would still recommend as a good place to stay.

Lovely hotel at Chexbres with beautiful lake view
This is a lovely hotel at Chexbres with beautiful lake view, with the UNESCO sites of vineyards nearby. It's located at a very peaceful and tranquil place, not far from the highway. Breakfast is yummy with plenty varieties, though it's not included in the hotel room rate, it's still worth it for the price of CHF25 per pax. There's a big LCD HD TV in the room (50 inch at least) but pity that there's no English channel for travelers from non-french/German speaking countries. Overall we loved this hotel and would like to stay here again if there's chance to visit Lausanne/Montreux area.
