Best Five Star Hotels in Geneva
Cosmopolitan and wealthy, Geneva is thought of as a global capital. It’s not the capital of Switzerland, but it is the home of the United Nations, the World Bank, the Red Cross and the World Trade Organisation. It’s also thought of as being chocolate-box pretty, an elegant, historic city boarded by views of Lake Geneva and the Swiss Alps. These two elements have made it a fairly well-to-do destination, with wonderful architecture, quirky museums, antique shops, Michelin-starred restaurants, chic bars, luxury chocolatiers and jewellers, and an enticing list of luxury, and five star, hotels. Geneva has more than its share of grande dame hotels, and opulent, five star affairs steeped in history and tradition. But is also has a number of more contemporary five star hotels - which will generally be better suited to families; lakeside wellness retreats and resorts; boutique townhouse conversions; and luxury aparthotels.
