Geneva Hotels

Geneva can be called the center of European tourism, because this city is located in Switzerland - the real capital of winter recreation. There is much to do besides skiing : many come to Switzerland for healing at thermal spas (the most popular are Bad Ragaz and Leukerbad ), rest on the lakes and, of course, sightseeing, which are very many. And our article will tell you about where you can stay in Geneva - full of charm of the city.

Best hotels in Geneva

Going to Geneva , remember that housing prices here are quite high, even in comparison with other European countries. For example, a night in a 3 or 4 star hotel will cost you 500-600 local francs. But it's not in vain that Geneva hotels are among the best in all of Switzerland : it should be noted that such a holiday is worth the money spent.

So, the top five hotels in Geneva, having 5 stars, included such establishments:

1. Kempinski Grand Hotel has a well-deserved reputation as a unique hotel overlooking the Alps . In addition, it is located on the shore of the famous Lake Geneva with its emerald meadows. The hotel Kempinski, designed for 410 rooms, offers its guests almost all the services and entertainment that you can imagine, up to the possibility of taking your pets to the restaurant. And such services as children's junior club, sauna, fitness center, solarium, 3 restaurants, currency exchange, 24-hour internal security and much more are taken for granted. Having settled in Kempinski, you will plunge into the atmosphere of luxury, inaccessible to the guests of 2-3-star hotels.
2. InterContinental Geneva is also famous for its high level of service. In contrast to the beautiful view from the window rooms on the lake and the mountains you get remoteness from the city center, but this can be considered as an advantage, because walking tours in the vicinity of the Alps will only benefit. In Geneva InterContinental you can choose the entertainment for your soul - water procedures in the pool or skiing, classes in the gym or biking, visiting the baths, wellness center, beauty salon, etc. A polite staff and a "full mincemeat" of the rooms will not cause any complaints.
3. Swiss Luxury Apartments in Switzerland is considered one of the most presentable hotels in Geneva. Its rooms are spacious, comfortable and modern. And although this hotel does not have such a wide range of services as in the above-mentioned institutions, but the embankment of the beautiful Lake Geneva with the fountain of Doe , located just 5 minutes on foot, crosses out all its minor shortcomings.
4. D`angleterre - hotel with an unusual interior design. All its rooms are decorated in classical style, but in each of them the motifs of a culture (African countries, Great Britain, the Netherlands) are traced. The hotel itself is located in a lively commercial and financial district with numerous shops, restaurants and banks, right in the heart of Geneva's business life.
