Fun Castle for the Whole Family. - Really neat and historic castle. Definitely worth visiting if you are in the area. we did the audio tour - which was great. Go early if you can. We arrived at 10:00 and had plenty of room to walk around and see things. By the time we left (~11:30), the castle was getting very crowded.

A castle of character - Wonderful castle. We left Evian to visit it. It is beautiful from the outside as well as inside. A jewel. An imposing castle! The view of Lake Geneva is breathtaking. The move is worth it.

Worth it. - It's a postcard, storybook spot. It is very worth spending a morning to see it, to know its history and then want to contemplate its views and take a bath in its surroundings. Admission costs the same there, by tourist hut or on the web. You can rent separate audio guide. To get there, take a city bus from Montreaux (10 minutes) or walk along a beautiful path bordering the lake in about 40 minutes and admire the views, the mansions and especially the lake. I remember indelible luniris

Beautiful castle - Free parking but positioning its parking disc. Beautiful castle, nice renovation and well maintained. Magnificent Gothic basements, a superb view of Lake Geneva from the dungeon

Good value for money despite a price that seems high at first glance... - The price might seem excessive, considering the size of the castle, the phenomenal cost to maintain, the collections, the number of rooms, corridor in the mezzanine to visit, the price actually seems justified; a family offer at reduced price is available. If you are short of time, know that the most "beautiful" is the right-of-way and the exterior beauty overlooking the lake, a few photos taken by snatch can constitute a first step of free "visit" this one.

Beautifully preserved castle on the lake - Beautifully preserved castle on the lake with lots of areas to explore. You can get an audio guide in the gift shop when entering, though be aware that you have to give your license or passport as a guarantee that you'll return the audio guide. There are beautiful views over the lake if you climb the (many many) stairs and it's amazing to see how the castle was built directly into the rock in many spots. Do be careful if you're accident prone or not steady on your feet, as the uneven surfaces could easily trip you up if not careful.
