Hotel d'Angleterre
A retreat on the shores of Lake Geneva
VERIFIED LUXURY
Here are five things to know about us:
1. We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
2. We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
3. Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
4. While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
5. We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

Located with postcard-perfect views of
Geneva’s iconic Jet d’Eau and the French Alps glimmering across Lake Geneva,
Hotel d’Angleterre is one of the most unusual properties in the city. That it reduced the number of rooms in 1995 from 60 to 45 speaks volumes of the hotel’s commitment to meeting the needs and desires of its guests, as does the two-to-one staff-to-guest ratio.
Built in 1872, the historic building retains the feel on an old-school private club with its dark-walled hallways and decadent ornate furnishings, but it is decidedly unfussy. While the property isn’t grand in size, it does have all the amenities you’d want at a luxury hotel in Geneva, including a cigar lounge, a fine-dining restaurant with wow-factor views, two modest meeting rooms and a sexy little lounge for cocktails.
