Hotel Location: center

The Swissotel [hidden] is one of Geneva's best hotels and enjoys a superb location opposite the Jardin Anglais, right on the lakeside. From here it's only two steps to the fashionable shopping boulevards and the charms of the tiny streets of the old town and the Cathedral. A luxurious and elegant hotel, the [hidden] was built in 1854 but has more recently been renovated and modernized, offering guests every possible comfort and convenience, as you'd expect in a top quality 5 star hotel.

Guest rooms are spacious and elegant, with classic decor and sparkling en suite bathrooms. Rooms on the city side are slightly smaller, but face the quieter rue du Rhone. Lakeside rooms are more spacious and have a separate bath and shower in their large bathrooms, also featuring a second television in here, for the ultimate in pampered luxury!

The hotel doesn't promise a lake view, as rooms below the 3rd floor have their view compromised by the trees, but the aspect is nonetheless a pretty one. All rooms are double glazed and have airconditioning, bathrobes and slippers, a safe, iron & ironing board, cd and dvd player, 2 phones with modem and wireless internet connectivity, desk, hairdryer and coffee/tea machine.

The Swissotel [hidden] has its own elegant restaurant serving traditional French cuisine. The decor is timeless, with red leather chairs and chandeliers. There's also a terrace on the cobbles, where you can eat outside opposite the quaint fountain in the sunshine. You may opt to take the hotel's breakfast buffet here, at an extra cost of CHF35 per person. From May, the hotel will also feature a contemporary styled sandwich bar downstairs.

The hotel bar is a comfortable place to relax, just off the main lobby. Upstairs, there is a panoramic terrace where you can take your drinks and relax with a fantastic 360° view over Geneva, the Lake and the mountains beyond. The Swissotel [hidden] also offers fitness facilities in its Amrita Spa, a fully equipped exercise room with freeweights and training machines.

NB. All rooms have en suite facilities.
