The Woodward

Geneva, Switzerland

The Woodward

From Quai Wilson, you throw open your windows onto Lake Geneva and Mont Blanc. The building, put up in 1901, boasts post-Haussmann proportions, marble fireplaces and libraries. Up in the rooms, the lake's calm reflection is dressed in light fabrics, fluffy duvets, heavy curtains. At L'Atelier Robuchon, the cooking takes place in an open kitchen, right in front of the guests. The chef's purée arrives at the counter, followed by a lemon mousse, grapefruit sorbet, orange compote and meringue. In Le Jardinier's verandas, the register turns more plant-based.

Accommodations

What we like

The moment

Eat fondue at altitude, from a hot-air balloon drifting over the Alps.

The legacy

The former strongroom, where Cuban cigars are savoured today.

The flavour

Dine right at the counter at L'Atelier Robuchon. The beef Rossini is the one to order.
