“Le Coucou, perched above Montreux, feels wonderfully remote; the cogwheel train access is a journey in itself. The restaurant, focused on local flavors and wines, shines - especially after a day on the nearby Rochers de Naye slopes. It strikes me as a superior kind of basecamp, with views that truly elevate the experience.”
