Geneva isn’t officially a global capital, but it certainly has all the hallmarks or one: it’s a wealthy, cosmopolitan political centre, home to the headquarters of the United Nations, the World Trade Organisation, the World Bank and the Red Cross.

Or the promise of actual chocolate! Geneva is known for its jewellers and chocolatiers, many of which you can find in the cobbled-streets of the Old Town, which is one of the largest in Europe. It is the first part of this paragraph that most impacts Geneva’s accommodation offering, though, and there’s plenty of business accommodation, as well as less business-y options like boutique hotels and five star grande dames.
