Best Luxury Hotels In Saint-Gervais, Geneva

Another 19th-century Grande Dame of Geneva, the Hôtel des Bergues joined the Four Seasons family in 2005, celebrated with a full renovation and the addition of upper storeys. As a result, you’ll find the room options here to be quite diverse; some are grand, historic and opulent echoing the hotel’s past, while newer options take on a more Scandi-loft vibe. Its Michelin-starred Il Lago restaurant is based on the ground floor, with Izumi on the rooftop. Also at the top of the building, is the spa. Swim backstroke in the sizeable indoor pool and you can take in the sky overhead, through the vaulted glass ceiling.

Like the Fairmont, this period property had a former life under a different guise – in this instance as the Hotel du Rhone, built in the middle of the last century beside the river, as a post-war development. Once within the Mandarin portfolio, it received a makeover by a New York design agency in the noughties and a further facelift by a French interior expert in the following decade. The hotel accommodates 189 bedrooms, the Rasoi by Vineet Indian restaurant with some alfresco tables and the Café Calla which serves nutritious French dishes and cocktails.
