A MODERN CLASSIC UNVEILED AT FOUR SEASONS HOTEL DES BERGUES GENEVA

12-07-2007

(GENEVA, SWITZERLAND) December 6, 2007 – Just six short months after the opening of the freshly renovated and classically decorated Royal Suite, Four Seasons Hotel des Bergues Geneva reveals its contemporary sister: the new Presidential Suite.  More than $1 million (CHF 2,000,000) went into creating this premier two-bedroom, private “residence” that is now accepting guests.

Diverting from the hotel’s French neo-classic style, interior architect Pierre-Yves Rochon crafted a 1,940 sq.ft. (180 m2) chic city dwelling that captures the international sophistication of Geneva. A silver, white and platinum color palette is accented by dark, exotic woods and 20th century modern furnishings to create a dramatic, sleek and yet comfortable setting.  Additional distinguishing décor elements include a designer chandelier atop a six-person dining table and an elegant master bedroom with a walk-in dressing room and lavish marble bathroom.

 

Drawing the outside in, the suite encompasses a corner of the second floor of the more than 170-year-old hotel treating guests to uninterrupted views Lake Geneva and Old Town.  Multiple balconies perfect for pre-dinner drinks or a leisurely breakfast allow for further enjoyment of the picturesque city.

 

While amenities abound to ensure the most comfortable stay, nothing is as unique as the suite’s dedicated personal assistant. This expert at creating perfect moments is on call both before and during a guest’s visit.  Not only will they note preferences such as favorite type of water, music and lighting but they are available 24-hours a day to handle any special requests from ensuring a wife’s favorite flowers are in the suite prior to arrival, to securing opera tickets for a daughter’s birthday months in advance or even finding and trimming a Christmas Tree in the middle of January, well after the Christmas holiday.


Rates for the Presidential Suite start from $8,200 per night. Reservations can be made by calling 1-800-6488-6488 or by visiting: http://www.fourseasons.com/geneva/residential_suites.

One of Geneva’s historical landmarks, Four Seasons Hotel des Bergues is the first and only Four Seasons in Switzerland.  Beautifully situated on the banks of Lake Geneva, the view from Four Seasons Hotel des Bergues encompasses Geneva’s most significant icons: the Jet d’eau - the world’s tallest fountain - and the Old Town, where many buildings dated from the 16th century. Also in full view from the Hotel is the shopping area and the financial district, both within walking distance, across a footbridge.
