Nouveau Richemond


One of Geneva's stuffiest hotels has just gotten an overdue injection of glamour. The five-star Le Richemond, built in 1875 and located in the city's center, has fully reopened after a two-year rehab and several months of operating in parts. Additions include a swank Shiseido spa, but the most impressive improvement has to be the new Royal Suite, taking up the entire top floor. The 2,700-square-foot space features fireplaces, a sauna, an 1,100-square-foot terrace with views of Lake Geneva and Mont Blanc, and—because, hey, you never know—bulletproof windows.Le Richemond, rooms from about $695 per night, Jardin Brunswick, 1201 Geneva, Switzerland, +41-22-715-7000, lerichemond.com
