Featuring 40 total pavilions, 24 of which are on stilts out over Lake Neuchâtel, the Hotel Palafitte is the first and only overwater-bungalow resort in all of Europe. This is a 5-star Superior hotel with luxurious features and amenities, plus an excellent restaurant.

Each room comes equipped with its own computer and the main feature of the hotel itself appears to be a pair of high-tech meeting rooms, so this overwater bungalow resort is obviously popular with business groups and for retreats, but it's also praised for its gorgeous location and even the honeymoon crowd seems to approve.

WHAT THE REVIEWS SAY

Reviews of the Hotel Palafitte are almost all excellent, which isn’t much of a surprise considering this is a 5-star superior place. Nearly all are very impressed by the luxurious furnishings as well as the setting itself.

Some complain that the walkways that lead out to the lake bungalows could use updating, and a few minor mentions of air conditioning not working right in a particular unit at one time, but overall this appears to be a first-class hotel that deserves its 5-star rating.
