Elegantly poised at the edge of Lake Geneva

Hotel d'Angleterre

Geneva, Switzerland

d'Angleterre Background

The finest British hospitality in Switzerland

Throw open the French doors to your suite, breathe the fresh mountain air and gaze out over placid Lake Geneva and its famous Jet d’Eau, the magnificent 140-metre fountain. Our prominent hotel affords guests spectacular lakeside views, backed by snow-dusted Alpine peaks and the majestic Mont Blanc.


Set in the heart of the picturesque Swiss city of Geneva, the Hotel d'Angleterre combines the joys of a central location – the complimentary boat shuttle service leaves from just outside the hotel – with the relaxing atmosphere of a lakeside retreat. Make the most of all the Geneva has to offer from our enviable central location, returning to the luxurious surroundings of Hotel d'Angleterre after a lively day in the city.

Inspired by an abundance of superb local ingredients, including Dorset Vinny Blue Cheese and Dorset Beef, and produce grown in the hotel gardens and polytunnels, Executive Chef Steven Titman has created a timeless menu which combines both innovative cuisine and classic signature dishes. Renowned sommelier Eric Zwiebel is also on hand to recommend the perfect wine from an impressive selection, including hand-crafted wines from our award-winning sister South African vineyard, Bouchard Finlayson.

Enchanting design

All of our 25 guest rooms and suites are different, each with a warm and inviting country house style of its own. Rich fabrics and elegant furnishings, crisp Belgian linens warmed with hot water bottles, soft and enveloping bathrobes, luxury amenities, fresh fruit and homemade shortbread are just some of the thoughtful touches. There are also private cottages for extra privacy, some with their own hot tub.

From the private, sheltered rockery and garden to the charming working fireplace and wood-panelled private dining room, Bea’s Cottage makes for a quintessential pastoral escape to refresh, rejuvenate and feed the soul, surrounded by the bucolic English countryside.
