Geneva

See OfFers

Our Geneva city breaks take in this beautiful, cosmopolitan city in the French-speaking part of Switzerland, framed by the Alps and situated at Europe's largest lake, Lake Geneva. Geneva has Switzerland's second-largest population and is recognised as being one of the world's most important cities for regular meetings of international committees, although Geneva is much more than this.

The city is not only the world capital of watchmaking but also a place of wonderful lakeside parks, world-class cultural events and exhibitions as well as gastronomic delights. It is home to more than 200 international organisations and is widely recognised as the City of Peace. As an open-minded city, Geneva makes its guests soon feel at home.

Important Notice: Introduction of the EU Schengen Entry/Exit System

Please be advised that, effective from 12th October 2025, a new Entry/Exit System (EES) will be implemented for all travellers entering and exiting the EU and Schengen Area.

This digital system will replace the current manual passport stamping process by electronically recording border crossings for UK nationals and other non-EU travellers.

At this time, no action is required from travellers prior to their journey. We recommend reviewing the official government guidance to understand how this may affect your travel arrangements.

Mary Shelley wrote her famous novel Frankenstein whilst staying at the Villa Diodati. You're sure to recognise a number of references from the book during your Geneva city break.

Every year, the start of spring is officially announced when the first bloom appears on the Chestnut tree outside the parliament building.
