Where British hospitality meets Swiss refinement
1872
The Hotel d’Angleterre is the work of the celebrated architect Anthony Krafft, conceived and later acknowledged as a heritage site of the city of Geneva, offering 30 spacious rooms, most of which had a spectacular view of Lake Geneva and Mont Blanc.
