"Midway between Geneva and Annecy, a château rises on the slopes of Mont Salève, looking every bit as grand as a fairy-tale castle. But this landmark is far from medieval — built in the early 20th century at the behest of an American aristocrat, it’s now a luxury hotel known as Château des Avenières. Rooms in the main building are classic in style, with French windows, traditional patterns, and velvet headboards, while suites in the newer addition are more modern with wood-burning fireplaces and chic monochromatic décor." - Tablet Hotels
