La Réserve Hotel & Spa, Geneva
Expert reviews
“Nestled on the shores of Lac Léman, this contemporary resort in a residential suburb resembles a grand African lodge. Spacious rooms, most with a balcony or patio, are dressed in warm browns with punches of vibrant reds and purples.”
Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Dubrovnik.
“La Réserve is Geneva’s first contemporary five-star hotel, set in 10 acres of gardens beside the lake, with decadent, stylish interiors by maverick Parisian designer Jacques Garcia.”
Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Dubrovnik.
“Combining the style of an African game reserve with the Swiss tradition of luxury health retreats, this peaceful place overlooking Lake Geneva allows guests to cocoon themselves away from the world and reap the benefits of anti-ageing spa treatments, high-quality food and lakeside relaxation.”

Excellent hotel. No complaints expect for the isolation of the property and a barking dog which may
Great breakfast, the facilities are top notch but there is not much around the property. There is a boat that takes you into the center of Geneva.
Barking dog every night.

Very good
The hotel is very cosy, a nice luxury style. We had diner and breakfast near the fire place, the food was very good.
Pitty that the sauna's where located in the dressing room and therefor separated for men and women. The extra's were also very expensive (appr. 26€ for an Aperol Spritz)

Fabulous
I wanted to have an appointment in the spa, but the rather arrogant receptionist curtly informed that they were fully booked - this was disapointing as the spa was a major reason for choosing the hotel. It would have been helpful if the reception could have advised this was likely during check in.

Convenient getaway
Location is super convenient for those living in Geneve or Vaud. Staff were very professional and not pretentious Room was comfortable with all sorts of goodies for us It was my partner’s birthday and they gave us a special cake that was out of this world All the little details such as the evening turndown service were impressive
Room was a bit small and no view Shower was in a bathtub that requires a bit of balance to get in and out of The spa has its separate men’s and women’s saunas so we could not enjoy that together, which kinda hurt the couples vibe

Pleasant
Hotel Rooms are beautiful, quiet, and clean
The AC was not working in the room. Maintenance team came to check it late at night, yet were not able to solve the issue. We had to spend the whole night with no AC, despite staying in a 5 star hotel in Geneva. Staff needs to be better trained to ensure that the guests are comfortable with the services and not just the facilities of the hotel.

Never again - not worth the money
Location next to airport and highway is good.
The lady with a long black pony tail guided us to the breakfast table at 10h15. At 10h30 breakfast closes. Despite asking we were not given the nice empty table at the window. We had to sit in the back in the dark and were disturbed by the dismantling of the buffet. I told this to the same lady again and in a super arrogant way responded. Unacceptable behaviour for such a place. Never La Reserve again. By the way a tall waiter was behaving extremely responsibly. A staff like this does not belong to such a place. Also it was dark everywhere so one could not see the state of the property and the cleanliness......

The surroundings are perfect, the massages are outstanding, the food is great
It is not a palace hotel, people don’t go out of their way to make things perfect for you. They are all driven by money. The smallest thing that is outside of your breakfast bill, they charge you for it. It’s petty

Excellent but stay clear of Chinese .
5 star exclusive Spa Friendly staff
No boat into Geneva as advertised Didn’t advise on Genève pass No English menu in Chinese restaurant Very expensive

Overpriced with no views of the lake
This place is utterly mis-sold and massively over priced. Very underwhelming. No views of the lake. Main road noise outside on the terrace. Restaurant over priced and waiter service not good enough. This place need to be more honest about itself.

disappointed
swimming pool and lake vieux
lotti restaurant with a very bad menue, noisy snd long time of the waitress to deliver the tableau

I like this hotel I wish it improves in hygiene and service
the play ground, the pool and the garden, the tea room.
the rooms are outdated, the food wasn’t delicious, the service in the breakfast area was slow. I found a small cockroach in the room and an ant on the towel in the bathroom.

while beautiful, not worth the price tag.
a beautiful property - the facilities and food were lovely, the spa was best-in-class and loved the water transport to town and the concierge
room wasn’t ready on time so to check in before our dinner (8p), had to downgrade.
