Expert reviews

Fodors review:

“Impeccable taste, total discretion, and a passion for detail mark this stylish boutique hotel where thematic decorations stretch from African to baroque.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Geneva.

Forbes review:

“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.”

CNN review:

“Situated on the banks of Lake Geneva facing the Jet d’Eau fountain, this family-run hotel is a landmark in its own right. It’s been around since 1872, and is considered Geneva’s ultimate grande dame hotel thanks to its Old World elegance and A-list clientele.”

Frommers review:

“Situated on the lakeshore, the palatial Hôtel d’Angleterre is the Beau Rivage’s smaller, more affordable neighbor and one of my favorite hotels in Geneva. Most rooms have lake views and the suites are especially plush.”

Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Geneva.

Telegraph review:

“This grand hotel stands proud on Geneva’s lakefront, and has been welcoming royalty, heads of state and celebrities through its opulent doors since 1872. It’s five-star all the way, with a discreet ambience, silver service, and mood-lifting views of the Jet d’Eau and snow-capped Mont Blanc.”

excellant service!

the service was great! we were only there for one nite but found the valet was very helpful, the front desk walked us through getting around town and recommended a great restaurant. we also loved the complimentary welcome champagne delivered to the room. all in all a very well run hotel with nice extra touches.

the room was maybe smaller, and we had an upgraded room with a small couch, then we expected but it was a decent size for a city hotel room and fine for one or two nites.

Charming

Clean rooms

Since the are not with LHW it’s a bit weird. They make everything difficult for nothing. The communication, I was told I got an email but I never did receive any email. And then she said via booking.com I went to check and there was nothing. Booking.com can confirm that. I guess I love the hotel to be back there

Totally superb in every way!

The staff team at Hotel Angleterre is outstanding! So professional, attentive, courteous ensuring visitors enjoy a fabulous 5* experience in keeping with the ambience of this superb waterfront hotel. The rooms are huge, impeccable and tastefully decorated with ‘turn down’ service. Breakfast was a delicious feast offering the best of Switzerland, while enjoying the wonderful vista of Mont Blanc, Geneva & the Lake. What a find! We simply can’t wait to return. Huge thanks to all the staff for such a fantastic stay!

Exceptional service. Hotel staff / concierge made us feel very warm and welcome, and were always smiling and ready to lend a hand. Will only ever stay here if we ever return to Geneva.

Amazing experience (as always!)

Hotel is lovely decorated, each room is unique and you will have a different experience each time you stay in this hotel. Breakfast is excellent, rooms very comfortable, location is perfect, but what make this hotel much more special is its staff. From the moment you arrive with your car until the moment you leave, the lovely staff will do whatever is necessary to make you comfortable and feel special. They are simple amazing. We have stayed many times in this hotel and will continue to come here each time we come to Geneva. This time our dog came with us and he was very welcomed. This hotel is highly recommend.

actually I like to stay again but after renewing the rooms and get rid of the noisy sounds because I like the location a

location staff very helpful and kind reception and hopitality

1- the noisy sound when we walk, we hear the foot steps all time because maybe the building very old and the sound of the wood makes noise in all the hotel and the rooms 2- also one of our rooms was too small and the chandeliers of the roof very big this kind of room needs simple furniture not huge to give space to the room because it is very small 3. we did not know about free using for the boat in the lake during our staying only we knew after we checked out but the staff told us that we can use it for that day ( last day ) and they gave us tickets to use
