On the edge of the Rhone river’s left bank, the Hotel Metropole Geneve presents guests with the ideal luxury base to visit Geneva’s best attractions. Facing the English Gardens and the lake beyond it on the one side, and the historic city centre on the other, you can admire breath-taking views of Geneva’s best landscapes throughout your stay. Whilst a 10-minute walk east will take you in front of the iconic Jet d’Eau fountain, the same walk in the other direction will see you on the Quai du Montblanc. Visit all of Geneva’s varied quarters, popular history museums and large parks, and perhaps even take a day trip to the nearby Alps, all from the peaceful lakeside haven of the Hotel Metropole.
A trip to Geneva would not be complete without an insight into Swiss cuisine and confectionary, primarily inspired by its neighbouring countries in Italy and France. The hotel focuses on the former’s influence at the “Gusto” Restaurant, where guests can indulge in fresh Italian-inspired cuisine that uses both traditional and innovative flavours to introduce you to the Mediterranean terroir. Its sister restaurant, “La cantina del gusto”, also serves breakfast and an antipasto buffet for a quick meal. For an extra treat, the hotel also recommended to try the Mirror Bar’s afternoon tea. What better way to spend a Sunday afternoon?
After a day of visiting popular sites, from the Palais des Nations, to Botanical Gardens, through to the Lake, there is no better place to rest than in the plush beds of your modern, luminous rooms. Expect 5-star amenities in your room to complete your Geneva stay at the Hotel Metropole.
