About the Hotel

Built on stilts over the water, Hôtel Palafitte is a magnificent and iconic retreat in Neuchâtel, Switzerland. With such a unique construction, originally erected as part of the National Expo 2002, this intrepid oasis – part of the Lifestyle collection of Preferred Hotels & Resorts – is truly remarkable when it comes to a place to stay. Expert architecture enhances the spectacular views, which gaze over Lake Neuchâtel, the largest lake contained within Switzerland's borders. Accommodations include shore and lake pavilions, providing an enchanting space for every guest to experience and enjoy. Each pavilion sits aloft its own stilts, affording you with over 730 square feet of indoor space and an additional 100+ square feet of private terrace, again offering views of the tranquil water or the neighboring Alps. Depending on your bungalow, you can access the lake to swim either via your own private ladder into the water or by taking a short path to the shore. And as if the outside was not already enough, interior spaces feature floor-to-ceiling windows, remarkable custom furnishings, personal espresso makers, WiFi access, plasma televisions and luxury bath amenities.

Reviews for Hotel Palafitte

They just cancelled our stay

Reviewed 4 weeks ago

Watch out! My friend and I had reserved this hotel for our stay during a music festival, but the hotel just canceled our booking at the last minute when it was impossible to find anything else to book nearby. Extremely unprofessional and disappointing service.

Great view, clean and spacious rooms, quiet and quick service. I recommend. Wifi was really bad though, probably because of the very bad weather, not sure

Always dangerous to go back to places where you had a marvellous stay before, as expectations are set too high. It had been 3 years or so, but am I glad I listened to that little voice inside my head: we went back and enjoyed every second again. The rooms seem to have been refurbished a little and they looked even nicer than last time. It remains a unique property: beautifully located, very intimate, amazing rooms, great beds, fantastic breakfast, views to die for and simply fantastic staff: from reception to handymen. The fourlegged friends is welcome too!! The next stay will not take another 3 years!! Simply an amazing experience for people that want a unique stay!
