At the edge of Lake Geneva, the city’s very first hotel has been a beloved<br />
landmark since its opening in 1834. Reborn for the 21st century as Four<br />
Seasons Hotel des Bergues Geneva, the seven-storey neoclassical building<br />
was transformed through two years of refurbishments. Interior architect<br />
Pierre-Yves Rochon focused the renovations on recapturing the hotel’s<br />
historic spirit – creating interiors that ‘could have been’ in 1834. Classic<br />
French furnishings blend Directoire, Louis XVI and Louis-Philippe styles<br />
to bring a fresh, bright and airy ambiance. The color palette of greens and<br />
blues – inspired by the waters of Lake Geneva – is reflected throughout the<br />
public spaces, 65 guest rooms and across all 35 premier suites, offering<br />
guests an unrivalled and opulent experience.<br />

Why we love it: With palatial grandeur, the five-bedroom Royal Suite<br />
soars with high ceilings, tall windows and a private terrace overlooking<br />
the city and Lake Geneva. A superb suite in which to entertain;<br />
furnishings are impeccable French reproductions, echoing the style of<br />
Versailles. Lavish silks, velvets and jacquards have been sourced from<br />
the finest Parisian fabric houses. The most complex detailing includes<br />
the plasterwork for the decorative mouldings, friezes and cartouches –<br />
cast on site and hand painted to achieve the patina of history. The suite<br />
offers a spacious marble foyer, living room with formal dining room for<br />
eight and adjacent pantry, parlor with double sofa bed, and a high-tech<br />
office designed as a library. The marble master bathroom features<br />
a double vanity, window-side designer bathtub offering lake views,<br />
separate rain shower, LCD flat-screen television, steam-resistant mirrors<br />
and heated towel racks. A guest powder room adjoins the living area.
