Hotel d’Angleterre

Geneva, Switzerland

Overview

Combining British character with flawless Swiss hospitality, the Hotel d'Angleterre is perched enviably overlooking Lake Geneva and the city's famous Jet d'Eau.

From this central location, guests may board a complimentary boat shuttle for service into picturesque Geneva for sightseeing and shopping. Within this lakeside retreat, choose from 39 luxurious guest rooms and six posh suites, each designed for a beautiful night’s sleep. Amenities throughout the accommodations range from a champagne welcome to evening turndown with floating votive candles. In the Le 17 Restaurant, all eyes are on the distant mountains as one awaits the talented chef’s sought-after specialties and homegrown favorites - each complemented by award-winning Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays from the hotel’s sister vineyard, Bouchard Finlayson in South Africa. Guests are enticed by exclusive excursions into their Swiss surrounds, perhaps for a private guided tour of the Patek Philippe Museum or a drive in a Bentley Arnage 2011 to the medieval village of Gruyeres (with a cheese fondue tasting, of course!).

Even their meeting spaces have incredible stories to tell, and the blue-walled ‘Louise’ room is no exception. Named after Princess Louise, who fell in love right there with her Belgian teacher and renounced her Austrian title, Salon Louise offers 25 square meters of space, perfect for small dining occasions or boardroom and breakfast style meetings.

Combination Stay/Why Visit?

Elegantly poised at the edge of Lake Geneva overlooking its famous Jet d’Eau, backed by snow-dusted Alpine peaks and the majestic Mont Blanc. Hotel d’Angleterre offers a fabulous central location in the heart of Geneva combined with the relaxing atmosphere of a lakeside retreat.

Take a special tour of the world-famous Patek Philippe Museum. The Collection focuses on watches from 1839 onwards, looking at the company’s 175-year heritage, including the Caliber 89, the most complicated watch ever created.

Why Us?

Hotel d’Angleterre is a proud part of the family-owned and run Red Carnation Collection. We are deeply proud of the hotel’s history dating back to 1872, both as one of the first hotels in Geneva, and as the city’s only luxury boutique hotel.

How We Travel for Good

Across our hotels in the United Kingdom, Channel Islands and Geneva, sustainability is embedded in our approach to hospitality, balancing exceptional guest experiences with responsible environmental and social practices.

Our commitment focuses on reducing environmental impact, supporting local communities, and preserving the cultural and natural heritage of the destinations in which we operate. Across the collection, we prioritise responsible sourcing, resource conservation, waste reduction initiatives, and meaningful community engagement.

All properties hold EarthCheck Silver Certification, recognising our commitment to environmental and social responsibility through independently verified assessment and continuous improvement. Our hotels operate on 100% renewable electricity and continue to invest in energy management systems, waste reduction programmes, and innovative technologies that support more responsible operations.

Conservation and community engagement are central to our sustainability efforts across the portfolio. From supporting urban biodiversity through rooftop beehives in London and Edinburgh to partnering with charities such as Starlight and Hospitality Action, our hotels actively contribute to the wellbeing of both local communities and the environments in which they operate. Through volunteering, responsible sourcing, and locally focused experiences, we seek to create lasting positive impact beyond the walls of our hotels.

Guests are invited to connect more deeply with each destination through carefully curated experiences that celebrate local culture, heritage, food, and the natural environment, encouraging a greater appreciation of the places we call home.

Through measurable actions, strategic partnerships, and responsible hospitality practices, we remain committed to creating a positive impact for our guests, colleagues, communities, and the environment.
