Look at my room! When I was looking for a hotel in Lausanne, most of them were charging huge amounts of money. I ended up going to the Formule 1, which is one of the cheapest chains of hotels around. Even though their hotel on the outskirts of Lausanne was grottier and smellier than any I had stayed in in France, it still cost about £50. In fact, the whole of Lausanne struch me as rather dirty and expensive.

Just 20 miles along the lakeshore though is this, the Golf-Hotel René Capt in Montruex. This cost not much more than the Fomule 1 but is much better and smarter. I thought I had come into the wrong place when I saw the reception area. It's also in a town centre and has free Wi-Fi. I even have my hopes that there might be a decent breakfast.
