Nestled on the breathtaking shores of Lake Geneva, with the majestic Alps as its backdrop, the Hôtel des Trois Couronnes in Vevey offers an unparalleled gastronomic experience. This iconic establishment invites discerning guests to explore two distinct culinary worlds, each promising an unforgettable journey for the senses. Whether you seek the refined elegance of Japanese kaiseki or the vibrant flavors of the Mediterranean, Les Trois Couronnes delivers with exceptional quality and a romantic ambiance, enhanced by gentle piano melodies in the Veranda Bar.

Two Culinary Destinations, One Unforgettable View

The Hôtel des Trois Couronnes prides itself on offering not one, but two remarkable dining venues, each overseen by a talented Head Chef. Both restaurants boast spectacular views of Lake Geneva and the surrounding Alps, creating a dining experience that is as visually stunning as it is gastronomically delightful. For those seeking an intimate and romantic setting, the restaurants also offer al fresco dining on their private terraces during favorable weather, adding another layer of charm to your visit.

Manabu The Art of Kaiseki Reimagined

Step into the elegant Belle Époque dining room and be transported to Japan at Manabu, the hotel's Japanese restaurant. Here, Head Chef Alastair Long, a visionary with prior experience in London's finest establishments, presents a refined and modern interpretation of kaiseki cuisine. Kaiseki, a traditional multi course Japanese dinner, is elevated to an art form under Long's expert guidance. He masterfully blends exceptional, seasonal ingredients with Japanese precision and a generous dose of creative flair. Each dish is a meticulously crafted masterpiece, designed to delight both the eyes and the palate. The dining room itself, with its panoramic lake and mountain views, provides a serene backdrop for this exquisite culinary journey. In fair weather, guests can opt for service on Manabu's private terrace, for an even more immersive experience.

Manabu is more than just a restaurant, it's a celebration of culinary artistry. The philosophy here is simple: to awaken the senses through the elegance of each plate. The experience at Kaiseki by Manabu, located on the stunning shores of Lake Geneva, embodies this ethos. Chef Long's passion for elevating the traditional kaiseki ryori is evident in every bite, showcasing the freshest seasonal ingredients with a commitment to both Japanese authenticity and innovative touches. Privatizing the space for special events is also an option, ensuring your celebrations are as memorable as the cuisine.

Le 3C Mediterranean Flavors with Alpine Touches

In contrast to Manabu's Japanese precision, Le 3C, under the direction of Head Chef Morgan Genelle, offers a vibrant and inviting exploration of Mediterranean cuisine. Since joining the hotel in March 2025, Genelle has brought his expertise in bistronomic cuisine to the forefront, expertly blending the flavors of the Mediterranean with the heartiness of Alpine ingredients. His approach is deeply rooted in the use of seasonal produce and a strong commitment to sustainability, ensuring that every dish is not only delicious but also responsible.

Le 3C welcomes guests into a chic yet relaxed veranda setting, offering the same captivating views of Lake Geneva and the mountains. In good weather, the panoramic terrace surrounding the fountain becomes the ideal spot to savor the flavors of the region. The menu at Le 3C, open daily, is a delightful journey through Spanish, Italian, and Greek influences, promising authentic dishes in a warm and approachable atmosphere. This bistro brasserie, situated within a Michelin starred hotel, makes exquisite dining accessible to all, allowing everyone to enjoy the magnificent panoramic views while indulging in the best of Mediterranean cooking.

A Valentine’s Escape Through Island Flavors

Embark on a journey to the heart of the islands, where each dish is a stopover of exotic and delicate flavors. This Valentine’s menu is an invitation to escape and romance, to share a memorable and indulgent moment together. Begin with Isabela Galápagos, a pink shrimp ceviche in Ecuadorian style with crisp plantain chips, followed by Pā kai moana, a sautéed Swiss veal fillet paired with fine oysters and tangy kiwi. The main course, Sentwaz, delights with grilled Coryphene sea bream, sweet potato-coconut espuma, exotic vinaigrette, and coconut chips. A refreshing pre-dessert, Lagoon Breeze, offers frozen pineapple piña colada style with light coconut soup and coconut marshmallow, leading to the decadent Fiery Heart—a chocolate surprise heart filled with pineapple marmalade, chocolate-ginger ganache, and warm chocolate-ginger sauce. To close, Sweet Return Treats petit fours bring the perfect finale to this tropical-inspired celebration of love.

Veranda Bar Gentle Melodies and All Day Delights

For those seeking a more relaxed experience or a delightful interlude throughout the day, the Veranda Bar is the perfect sanctuary. Open daily from 11 am to 11 pm, it offers a more intimate setting, complete with the soothing sounds of gentle piano music. While the menu here is smaller than that of the main restaurants, it is no less inviting. Guests can indulge in a selection of international wines, discover signature cocktails, and enjoy light bites while still taking in the stunning views of the lake and the Alps. The Veranda Bar also offers a selection of fine cigars, for those who wish to further enhance their evening.

A Refined Weekend Indulgence

Weekends at Les Trois Couronnes are made even more special with the Sunday Late Breakfast. This is an opportunity to treat yourself to a leisurely and indulgent experience, combining the best of classic breakfast favorites with the pleasures of a light brunch. Served from 12:00 pm to 2:30 pm, the generous and refined buffet is a true delight. You can expect a wide array of artisan breads and fresh pastries, a vibrant selection of seasonal fruits, smoked salmon, yogurts, and crispy bacon. For a taste of local flavors, rösti style potatoes are on offer, alongside delicious waffles and crêpes.

To further enhance your brunch experience, a selection of eggs is available à la carte, prepared precisely to your preferences. The beverages included with the Sunday Late Breakfast are hot beverages such as coffee, tea, and hot chocolate, a variety of fruit juices, and, for a touch of sparkle and festivity, a glass of Prosecco. The rates for this exquisite Sunday treat are CHF 59 per person, with a special rate of CHF 30 for children aged 4 to 11. (The adult rate applies from 12 years old).
