LUXURY SUITES WITH LAKE VIEW
Among several types of rooms (full list here), I had the pleasure to stay at a “Lake Suite”. This wonderful luxurious suite is extremely elegant and wide, with a nice balcony where you can enjoy the lake view and the park in front of you. There are 2 TV, with good music playlists! I played their own selection of ambience music and it was so magical!
On a side note: there are bookshelves with real books, about art and great literature. Big up! Highly appreciated!
This luxurious suites has 2 bathrooms: one at the entrance for guests, and a main one next to the bedroom with a wide shower and a big jacuzzi bathtub. All the body products are branded by ‘La Réserve’. The walls have elegant mosaic all over.
I appreciated (as I always do in the best hotels around the world) the warm and kind welcome! It is not something to get for granted, so I like to highlight it when it is very good! 🙂

LUNCH @ CAFÉ LAUREN
After a splendid morning at the ‘Nescence Spa’, I had lunch at the beautiful Café Lauren. The atmosphere is truly perfect, with ambient music on the background, white elegant interiors that create a truly peaceful environment. Perfect after a relaxing morning getting treatments rejuvenating yourself!
I ordered lobster cannelloni, that were so delicious and delicate. My favorite dish!
To follow I tried a lake-fish that was very yummy and light as well. Divine meal after a spa-day!
Café Lauren is located next to the Spa, and the ambience is indeed so relaxing and peaceful.
PRE-DINNER DRINKS @ THE BAR
Before my Michelin starred dinner at the well known Tsé Fung Restaurant, I enjoyed a glass of champagne together with very good avocado tacos at The Bar. The Champagne is actually made in the properties of the owner, Michel Reybier, and it has indeed is name (Michel Reybier Champagne) – a must! 🙂
DINNER @ TSÉ FUNG RESTAURANT (1 Michelin Star)
The famous Cantonese Restaurant ‘Tsé Fung’ is well known as a very elegant and sophisticated Chinese Restaurant, with 1 Michelin Star. For my dinner I chose the ‘Diamond Menu’ as I wanted to taste again the ‘Hong Kong’ flavors and also the delicious Pekin Duck!
If you like Chinese food, this is surely one of the best restaurants!
‘NESCENS’ – THE LUXURY SPA
Nothing better than a Spa-day, right? At La Réserve in Geneva you can find a wonderful Spa, called ‘NescenS’. It is open to the hotel guests and to the club members, but you can book also just some treatments and enjoying the facilities. The Nescens Spa offers a unique range of services in an elegant, lush green setting that have been developed and approved by the Nescens brand scientific committee. Services are provided by a multi-disciplinary team of therapists, coaches and medical specialists with expertise in the realms of preventive and anti-aging medicine, as well as aesthetic medicine.
Building on its medical and scientific expertise, Nescens, created by Professor Jacques Proust, a pioneer in the realm of biology of cellular aging and anti-aging medicine, crystallizes its know-how and experience by inaugurating its very first health Spa at La Réserve Geneva
The Spa is very well heated so you can easily fall asleep on the lounge-chairs, surrounded by the prettiest ‘jellyfish-lamps’! 🙂
AFTER-SPA LUNCH @ CAFÉ LAUREN
As mentioned in the previous paragraph dedicated to all my dining experience here, I had an exquisite, light and sophisticated lunch at Café Lauren. It is located on the same floor of the Nescens Spa, and the food has been specifically thought for a meal after a spa day… what a bliss! 🙂
The atmosphere is so perfect that after my massage at the Spa I really didn’t want to be anywhere else!
PRIVATE SHUTTLE-BOAT
Due to its location, La Réserve offers to its guests a private shuttle-boat to reach the city center in 15-20 minutes, instead of going through the traffic by car! It is also a wonderful way to enjoy the beauty of the Lac Leman and its surroundings, especially in spring/summer or during any sunny day!
Moreover, the guests can request a bigger boat (mini-yacht) for a daily cruise on the lake!
OUTDOOR SWIMMING-POOL
How amazing is having a swimming pool together with this view? La Réserve is indeed located right on the lake and it has a splendid park all around it. A very unique place to stay if you are seriously looking for a perfect stay when traveling to Geneva (or Switzerland in general!).
