"Housed in a neoclassical building dating back to 1834, this central-city luxury hotel retains frescoes, high ceilings and crystal chandeliers while offering modern, Pierre-Yves Rochon–designed rooms and suites with views of Mont Blanc, Lake Geneva and L’île Rousseau. The three-level Mont Blanc spa features a rooftop infinity pool, saunas and hammams clad in white Marmara marble and aged oak, and offers advanced treatments such as micropuncture mesotherapy, probiotic facials and champagne-grape-seed scrubs. Dining options include a Nikkei restaurant and a Michelin-starred Italian venue serving specialties like spaghetti alla chitarra and cacio e pepe–style dishes." - Adam H. Graham

"Hôtel des Bergues is Geneva’s very first hotel, built in 1834 along the waterfront and transformed into a Four Seasons in 2005. The rooms are wonderfully opulent in a loosely neo-classical, Louis Philippe–inflected style, with lots of brocade and toile de Jouy in shades of Wedgwood blue and almond green. If that’s not your style, reserve one of the Loft Suites on the sixth floor that embrace a ‘contemporary Swiss chalet’ aesthetic. The lively Michelin-starred Il Lago restaurant sits on the ground floor while Japanese restaurant Izumi serves delicious sushi alfresco on the trendy rooftop. Last but certainly not least, the top floor’s Asian-inspired Spa Mont Blanc is one of the big draws for the hotel, which covers two floors and includes a decent-sized pool."
"It’s hard to imagine a more natural fit than Four Seasons and Geneva, which is why the Canadian chain’s renovation of the celebrated Hotel des Bergues on the banks of the Rhone just across Lac Leman from the Old Town and the Financial District is such an admirable kid-glove performance. Four Seasons knows exactly what the high-flying international exec needs to feel not only pampered but, just as importantly, empowered when on the road—charmingly bashful service that disguises a brass-tack attention to detail, go for broke convenience, a great location, a first-rate restaurant on the premises, and a top-drawer fitness facilities. The Hotel des Bergues, an old world charmer that was built in 1834, now offers all of the above, plus LCD flat-screen televisions with DVD players, in 103 rooms and suites with floor-to-ceiling windows and a quietly elegant Anglo-Franco townhouse decor—think almond green, Wedgewood blue, and terra cotta color schemes and toile de Jouy motifs—by Paris decorator Pierre Yves Rochon. Large well-lit marble bathrooms have double sinks, both baths and showers and swanky Aqua di Parma toiletries, and the small fifth-floor fitness center is open twenty-four hours a day. Il Lago, the stylish Italian reference has a terrific wine list and excellent food that offers a welcome alternative to the polite French cooking that defines dining here. The impeccable efficiency of this hotel happily stops short of creating a deadeningly corporate atmosphere, however, which is why it’s a perfect place to camp out before or after a ski-holiday in the surrounding Alps."
"The Hotel des Bergues stood here on the shores of Lake Geneva back when the Four Seasons was still just a suite by Vivaldi — it was literally the first hotel in Geneva, and even now it’s still, by many lights, the top luxury lodging in town. Even-keeled traditional luxury hospitality is the name of the game here, and that’s exactly what Four Seasons does best." - Tablet Hotels
