Spent three nights here in October 2002. My first room was on the fourth or fifth floor overlooking the lake. I thought the room was somewhat dated in decor and the bathroom grungy so I asked to see what else was available. The other rooms either were less attractive or lacked my view, so I opted for my original room (bathroom grunge and all). Excellent service (in showing me other rooms, etc.) and a good experience in the restaurant "Jaan" (I had the ten course tasting menu -- over the top -- I met the chef). Overall, I agree with other posters about the limit of things Montreux has to offer -- you can, however, catch the train to Gstaad for the day.
