Reverence for the past and tradition exists in this hotel's overall design and antique furnishings. Apart from a few modern comforts, the decor is modeled after the belle époque. Past guests include Greta Garbo, Josephine Baker and Luciano Pavarotti. With its Mediterranean style terrace and its top-quality cuisine, the management of hotel restaurant Le Jardin Euler are no novices in their field. The Euler bar is a classic, born of the turn of the last century and oozing Chesterfield appeal.
The dynamic Swissôtel was built in 1984. Despite the modern structure inside, the outside remains as fresh and impressive as it was on its initial opening. The roomy lobby harks back to the turn of last century in its use of space, and the piano, combined with palm like greenery, only serves to reinforce this image. The hotel's 238 rooms offer a similarly spacious feel and with their many corners appear a little playful in their design. Many other hotels fit rooms with any old desk; at the Swissôtel Le Plaza they are grand and elegant. Curvy lamps, tasteful sofas and enormous televisions combine to create a perfectly harmonized environment.
The discreetly-toned lobby greets guests with a stylish design. Its restaurant's philosophy is French 'joie de vivre', and is much acclaimed by local food critics. A terrace offers a pleasant view of the city. The well-equipped business center will cater to every corporate demand.The rooms adopt a 19th century focus in a playful manner without appearing stuffy. And the furniture, set in light and airy surroundings, is elegant and sober with the odd cheeky, modern touch here and there that works well with the overall Victorian feel.
