Swissôtel Métropole
At a Glance
- central Left Bank location
- crimson Mirror Bar (with pianist) has winning cocoon feel
Pros
- limited space for cabs and other vehicles to stop, so arrivals and departures can be stressful—and some complain that rooms, although renovated, don't reflect the absolute latest in five-star decor
Cons

Book NowSwissôtel Métropole Review
Massive scrubbed-stone arches, swirled wrought-iron sconces, brass accents, warm colors, lush carpets, and the immediate proximity of high-voltage rue du Rhône shopping give this 1854 Left Bank palace an air of urban gentility and center-city bustle. Guest rooms have triple-glazed windows; they are decorated in what the hotel calls a "contemporary yet cozy Italian" style and come equipped with espresso machines. The newly refurbished Grand Quai restaurant has lost its 19th century-style grandeur in favor of a more streamlined contemporary look in browns and silver—attending one of its theme dinners periodically organized on the roof terrace is worth it for the wraparound view of Geneva alone.
