The location is stunning, 200m from the lake, but half the price of the diplomatic expense account palaces around the corner on the waterfront. The beautiful quiet square behind the hotel adds to the enjoyment of this most central location.

Amazing hotel! Situated next to river. Incredibly calm ambience with the benefit of spa. Beautiful decor and spotlessly clean. Staff are delightful and can’t do enough to make your stay the best it can be. Food is first class Highly recommend ( and we are very fussy!!)

Information about the area

Geneva, Switzerland

Hotel Bristol is in the heart of Geneva, within a 5-minute walk of Mont Blanc Bridge and Rue du Rhône. This luxury hotel is 0.7 mi (1.1 km) from Jet d'Eau Fountain and 1.2 mi (1.9 km) from University of Geneva.

The city of Geneva, with a population of 200,000 residents, is one of the largest cities in Switzerland. It serves as the capital of the canton and is located on Lac Leman, also known as Lake Geneva. The city is divided by the Rhône River, which flows from the lake. Geneva is a beautiful and enchanting city with numerous bridges. The Gothic St-Pierre Cathedral towers over the vieille ville, or old town, of Geneva, which is characterized by narrow, winding streets and houses adorned with flowers. For a breathtaking view of the old town, climb the north tower. Most of the city's museums are located in the vieille ville. The Musée d’Art et d’Histoire is known for its diverse exhibits, ranging from ancient Greek vases to Dadaism art. The Petit Palais is home to a wonderful collection of modern art housed in a cozy 19th-century palace. The lakefront of Geneva is stunning, with the daring Jet d'Eau, one of the tallest fountains in the world. Don't miss the well-groomed Jardin Anglais with its famous Horloge Fleurie, a large clock decorated with flowers, built in tribute to Geneva's clock industry. Geneva continues to be an international city, embodying Swiss neutrality that has welcomed diverse visitors like Lenin and Borges. Today, diplomats and executives of countless corporations occupy Geneva's offices, though rarely its immaculate streets. Calm and scenic, Geneva is the most delightful city in Switzerland.
