This is gem and something of a Time Capsule from the past. Come here if you want to disconnect from the constant buzz of daily life. A truly unique and charming Swiss establishment.

Beautiful spot
Nice, historic hotel situated in the hills outside town. The rooms were clean, the staff was welcoming, and the breakfast was generous. I really enjoyed the pastoral atmosphere and the cows in the surrounding fields. Hope to visit again someday!

4/10 Fair

Sad and horrible experience
Hotel room description doesn’t match as advertised, roof room is actually an attic room with lot of stuff stored in there, and full of dust, which was an absolute no no for me who suffers horribly from allergies. We requested a different room, unfortunately the response was extremely rude frim the manager. The hotel is also a bit off from the main village where all the activities are. Very sad and horrible experience.

Wow! What a joy to stay at Hotel du Pillon. Friendly and available staff/proprietors, amazing food, comfortable/clean/quiet rooms, all very relaxing and affordable. Amazing views, close to great hiking/footpaths, and close to the town of Les Diablerets. There was nothing I didn’t like. I would heartily recommend to friends and family that they should visit—I will likely return!

Have stayed at Hotel Pillon twice. It is an amazing, beautiful Swiss Historic Hotel in the beautiful town of Pillon/Les Diblerets. Don’t miss the 3000 Glacier Experience while you are in Pillon.

Cheguei no meu paraíso
Descer na estação ferroviária de Les Diablerets e ligar ao anfitrião para levar ao hotel. Descemos 2 estações antes, na estação Les Bovets e tivemos que subir uma trilha que dava direto na estrada, sendo que para ir ao hotel, tivemos que ir pela estrada que não tinha acostamento. Sorte que um senhor parou o carro, dissemos o nome do hotel que estávamos indo e ele ligou ao anfitrião que nos pegou no meio da subida da rua para o hotel. Depois, o anfitrião Francis (uma simpatia) nos emprestou o carro dele, de graça, com tanque cheio, para andarmos pela cidade e irmos para onde quiséssemos. Nos levou (seguiu na frente com outro carro dele) a um restaurante em Les Diablerets para almoçarmos (estava fechado mas como o dono era amigo dele, abriu uma exceção e nos serviu o almoço). No dia seguinte, no carro emprestado, fomos ao shopping da cidade de Monthey, da loja Manor. O almoço na Manor foi muito bom (pasta com camarões, salmão e molho branco a CHF 16,90). O Glacier 3000 estava fechado em virtude das chuvas. Nevou muito. Jantamos muito bem todos os dias no hotel. O fondue simples, só com pão, é maravilhoso. A pasta especialidade da casa, com premiação de regência de comida regional suíça, com publicação num livro de culinária regional suíça, também é muito bom. Há um piano "forte" de meia-cauda com um som lindo. A anfitriã é pianista e a música clássica se faz presente nas refeições. Se puder, leve partitura. Nunca me senti tão em casa. Cheguei ao meu paraíso.
