Beau-Rivage Genève is one of those magical places that remain engraved in one’s mind, nourishing the memories of those who one day chose to stay here....

The legacy of Beau-Rivage Genève began in 1865 when pioneers Albertine and Jean-Jacques Mayer, visionaries of their time, wrote the first chapter.

Gifted with the boldness and intuition of those who succeed, the couple commenced the story of our family-run hotel, page after page, passing on their passion and excellence on to future generations. Those generations, whose high standards and commitment will continue to preserve the grandeur of Beau-Rivage Genève throughout history, ensuring its seamless transition through ever-changing times. They will pursue the work done this far, writing the next chapters in history, ensuring the legacy of Beau-Rivage Genève lives on. This has been the family's mission: generations of passionate people proud of a remarkable family history, who, with respect for the past, magnify the present and shape the future of the Maison Beau-Rivage Genève.

While the history of the hotel has undeniably been enriched by the extraordinary destiny of its famous visitors, history with a capital H arguably requires exceptional places such as Beau-Rivage Genève to make things happen.

Actors, poets, diplomats, Royal highnesses, maharajahs, authors, politicians, Hollywood stars... The list of personalities who at some point have fallen under the spell of Beau-Rivage Genève is impressive, dizzying, staggering!
