Hôtel de la Gare - Yvonand

From outside the house looks slightly bland and uninspiring. Do not be put off and push the door! Hotel de la Gare embodies the authentic ‘’café restaurant’’ of a village. On one side, the café itself with its social life and passionate talks. On the other side, the restaurant part quieter, cozy and boasting an intimate atmosphere. I sat in the restaurant to enjoy my dinner. A huge thumbs up to Françoise the tenant for her friendly and efficient service. It really reflects Swiss hospitality at its best. The menu is short as the house explicitly prouds itself on homemade dishes (those which are not ‘’fait maison’’ are clearly marked on the menu). As starter I enjoyed the marinated salmon delicate and tasty. As main course I chose the veal escalope in lemon sauce quite generous and tasty portion, the veal was very tender. No room left for a big dessert, therefore I only had the ‘’Café Gourmand’’ with delicious samples. Despite Yvonand’s location by Lake Neuchâtel, prices remain pleasantly moderate (for Swiss standards): the bill amounted to CHF70. Considering the great food and excellent service, Hotel de la Gare offers outstanding value for money.

Nice terrace and very nice service. The kitchen is traditional and good. Very correct price.

On our tour west Switzerland we stopped at the de la gare in yvonand. the rooms are small, clean, it has everything you need. the basic price of fr, 140.00 for the double room is too high, because for this money it offers zero luxury. still - we felt comfortable. for 20.00 per person you can add half board - which is in turn favorable. then the price for the dz is calculated with half board. the 3 loner was very good - fine salat, fried chicken and tiramisu. sympathetic operation

To my mind, Hotel de la Gare is one of the finest and most memorable places I’ve ever stayed in. I and my friend booked a room just for two nights, but we wanted this experience to last much longer. First of all, we were really impressed by the landlady of the hotel. I can bet I hadn’t ever seen such an energetic and at the same time hospitable person working in the service before. Bravo! Secondly, the dishes at the hotel restaurant were delicious. I was absolutely happy to try new things from the French cuisine. A lot of thanks to the cook! Thirdly, the location itself is perfect to have a beach holiday on the lake or go hiking in the surroundings of Yvonand. The whole time we spent there was a kind of magic. Something from the fairy tale. The atmosphere which will be embedded in our memory forever. Looking forward to seeing you again! With regards, Your Russian Friends

Simple, but totally fine. Very good alternative to Yverdon. Good rooms, bed, bathroom and breakfast. Free parking. Excellent in-house restaurant, where I had my best beef-Tatar ever!
