In the heart of Geneva, the city’s first hotel – and still the first choice of world statesmen and global travelers – has been a landmark on the Rhône since 1834. Now, Hotel des Bergues, it blends a revitalized sense of history with the essentials of today’s plasma-screen, broadband world – and warm, sophisticated, intuitive service.

Hotel des Bergues Geneva offers 103 residential-style guest rooms and suites with a variety of lake, courtyard and city views. They are bright and airy, with rich blue and green fabrics, light woods and Louis Philippe-style furnishings that reflect the Hotel’s classic heritage. Nearly a quarter of the rooms are spacious suites – most with step-out balconies and views of Lake Geneva.

Built in 1834, it is the oldest hotel in Geneva. It is a very quiet location with no noise disturbances. With two restaurants and a bar, the Amphitryon conjures up fine French cuisine and the Brasserie Le Pavillon serves traditional cuisine and a buffet. You will appreciate the very popular summer terrace.
