A historic lakeside address at the heart of Europe

Occupying one of Geneva’s most sought-after locations, the iconic boutique hotel, will reopen in September after a complete redesign of the 75 hotel’s guestrooms and suites, the hotel lobby as well as the opening of two new restaurants.

Firmly rooted in Geneva’s cultural and social landscape, Hotel de la Paix has been witness to a multitude of historic world events since its opening in 1865. With only 75 guestrooms, its boutique size combined with a prominent lakeside location at the center of the Old Town, have inspired memorable gatherings, from the Alabama Claims tribunal in 1872, to a constant flow of high-profile guests across the 19th, 20th and 21st Centuries.

Timeless elegance
Influenced by elements synonymous with Swiss culture and tradition, the refreshed interiors take inspiration from art, time and nature. Subtly blending majestic Italianate architecture with ultra-modern, scaled-back design, the marble-clad lobby is offset by clean, white walls and refined, dove grey furnishings. Suspended from the heights of the galleried space, a glittering jeweled chandelier creates an impressive centerpiece, connecting historic opulence with contemporary flair.

Nature and harmony

Mountains, lake, woods and urban landscape are harmonically balanced in the city of Geneva. Many visitors fell in love with this place. Among them, Princess Grace Kelly, who was usually staying at the suite that is now named after her: she loved the beautiful view on the luxurious landscape that can still be enjoyed from its windows. The duality of Grace Kelly's beauty, defined by Alfred Hitchcock as cold and sensual at the same time, is reflected in the design of the room's details.

A fish market in Copenhagen

Paying homage to Geneva’s eclectic gastronomic scene, Hotel de la Paix captures the cosmopolitan nature of the destination through a selection of culinary experiences.

Inspired by Executive Chef Alessio Corda’s international mindset and respect for organic, regional dishes, Fiskebar, introduces a new Nordic-fusion concept to the city. Spread across four interconnecting spaces, including a fresh fish counter with high, communal seating, the restaurant’s styling is reminiscent of a traditional Scandinavian fish market, where minimalist interiors, set off by natural materials, such a wood and leather, evoke Nordic culture.
