The Ritz-Carlton Hotel De La Paix, Geneva - A 150-year-old lakeside landmark with Nordic dining and Mont Blanc views

The Ritz-Carlton property features 74 rooms, including 19 suites, each offering views of Lake Geneva, Mont Blanc, or Brunswick Garden. The Living Room Bar & Kitchen serves breakfast with caviar-topped eggs and Swiss bircher muesli, while Fiskebar presents Nordic cuisine focusing on seasonal seafood. A ballroom accommodates up to 100 guests for receptions or 60 for gala dinners, equipped with modern technology and floor-to-ceiling windows.

Pros

Historic venue of the 1872 Alabama Claims dinner and International Congress of Peace

Grace Kelly Suite features art deco design with gold leaf accents

Floor-to-ceiling windows in Mont-Blanc Suite showcase lake and mountain views

Nordic-inspired Fiskebar offers unique communal seating and open kitchen

Cons

Brunswick Garden view rooms offer only partial lake views

Balconies available only upon request, not guaranteed

“In my opinion, this property's historic significance as a venue for international meetings adds to its appeal. The Nordic-themed Fiskebar and its high-quality seafood provide a distinctive dining experience. While some aspects may not fully reflect a top-tier experience, the staff's dedication stands out.”
