Small Boutique hotels in GENEVA

The spectacular water fountain that emerges from Lake Geneva, and can reach 140 meters high, is one of the inseparable postcards of this city on the western limit of Switzerland. Well known also for hosting the headquarters of important institutions such as the UN.

Located at the southern end of Lake Leman and surrounded by two mountain ranges, the Alps and the Jura, the walk along the shore is lovely. It is a city that invites you to relax, but also to review part of European history and culture. The St. Peter's Cathedral was the church that hosted Calvin and his Protestant Reformation. It also houses a magnificent collection of capitals of the Swiss middle ages.

If you ascend to its towers, you will enjoy splendid views over the city, the lake and the mountains. The historic center unfolds around, ideal for wandering or making a break in the terraces of historic cafés. Another one of the unavoidable neighborhoods is Carouge, known as the Italian neighborhood. Under the Duchy of Savoy, the most prominent Italian architects of the time were commissioned to project a Mediterranean-style city there.

For enthusiasts of the pictorial work of Miquel Barceló, it is a must to visit the Human Rights room, in the Palace of Nations, to admire the great dome. The tradition of Swiss hotels in Geneva has outstanding establishments.
