Middle East culture vultures heading for the world famous Montreux Jazz Festival from July 2 to 17, can take advantage of special packages at one of Switzerland’s most elegant hotels and rest assured their stay will be as stylish as the music they have come to hear.

The Beau-Rivage Palace, situated on the shores of Lake Geneva in Lausanne, has put together specially tailored rates, which include two nights accommodation in a lake-view room, a welcome cocktail on arrival, a sumptuous fruit basket and flowers in the room, full buffet breakfast in the ‘Salon Grammont’, a dinner cruise on board the Montreux steamboat and free use of the hotel’s swimming pool, tennis courts and fitness facilities. All this for just CHF 752 (superior room) or CHF 902 (deluxe room) per person.
