After the festivities and through into the new year, guests can recharge at the hotel with a leisurely swim in the heated indoor saltwater swimming pool or enjoy a sauna, steam bath or massage. Alternatively guests can take a wander around Geneva absorbing the cosmopolitan character and old world charm that perfectly blend together in this attractive city. For those looking for a more adventurous holiday, over 45km of ski slopes can be enjoyed at La Dôle which is only a 1 hour drive from Geneva.
