Four Seasons Hôtel des Bergues

This elegant, four-story hotel -- designated a historic monument by the Swiss -- once catered to the monarchs of Europe. After being conglomerated into a Four Seasons, the hotel underwent a massive renovation, downsizing from 122 rooms to 103 more spacious rooms. It is now the most ostentatiously elegant hotel in Geneva.

Stratospherically expensive, with an armada of uniformed, polite staff members, the Four Seasons is a favorite with the haute international business community, diplomats, and members of European society. Grandly memorable from its centrally located position at the edge of the Rhône, the hotel also hosted many meetings of the League of Nations.

The hotel's public rooms are among the most lavish in Switzerland. The bedrooms have Directoire and Louis Philippe furnishings. Accommodations ranked "superior" on the Bel Etage floor are the finest choices here, although all units are beautifully appointed. Lake-view rooms are more expensive.
