Fodor's Expert Review Hotel d'Angleterre

Impeccable taste, total discretion, and a passion for detail mark this stylish boutique hotel, where thematic decorations stretch from African to baroque. Desks are equipped with office supplies, breakfast can be tailored to your needs, and room service includes afternoon tea. Guest rooms are individually decorated; one may be dressed in rich greens with faux-fur throws, and another might be done in rich browns to give off a more masculine vibe. The Leopard Room bar has a working fireplace, live music several nights a week, and an adjacent smoking room with a wide selection of cigars. Windows, the quayside winter-garden restaurant, serves creative French cuisine with a front-row view of the Jet d'Eau and Mont Blanc.
