75 Years of Family Hospitality in the Heart of VeveySince 1950, the Ming family has embodied a hotel tradition in Vevey built on excellence, dedication, and innovation. On the occasion of its 75th anniversary, the Astra Hotel Vevey pays tribute to its roots while reaffirming its mission of offering contemporary hospitality in the heart of the Vaud Riviera.
A Dynasty of Hoteliers Rooted in Vevey
The story begins in 1950, when Josef Ming acquired the “Buffet de la Gare” and turned it into the Hôtel Pavillon, a modest 11-room establishment. A visionary, he laid the foundations for continuous growth, led by the next generations: Niklaus Ming and his wife Monique in the 1970s, and today, co-directors Christophe and Nicolas Ming, who share the same passion.
From Hôtel Pavillon to Astra Hotel Vevey
The site’s history dates back to the 19th century with the Hôtel de la Gare, later becoming the Pavillon des Voyageurs in 1912, and eventually the Hôtel Pavillon. In 2005, the hotel complex was renamed Astra Hotel Vevey, marking a new era with modern facilities, a wellness center, seminar rooms, and a diverse culinary offering – notably the iconic historical brasserie, La Coupole 1912.
Tradition in the Service of the Future
Firmly anchored in Vevey’s collective memory, the Ming family has always blended tradition with modernity. Preserving heritage – such as the 1927 Fête des Vignerons frescoes or stained glass by Michel Delanoë – while continuously innovating in services, defines the hotel’s philosophy.
A Culinary Journey Back in Time
To celebrate this jubilee, the historic Brasserie La Coupole 1912 will revive the flavors of the past. Starting September 1st, a traditional dish will be served each week from Monday to Friday, offering guests a delicious journey through the iconic recipes that have marked the hotel’s history. As a nod to past customs, the famous Sunday Roast will also make a comeback at lunchtime – a warm and convivial dish, perfect for sharing.
