Geneva Accommodations

Geneva accommodations

Geneva accommodations welcome you to a destination nicknamed “The Peace Capital”. Known for its fountain, flower clock, lakeside baths / parks, gardens, castles, medieval houses, museums, monuments, concert halls, music venues, scenic views, marinas, chocolate, fondue and watchmaking, Geneva is located in Switzerland’s remote west. Bordering France at 1,230 feet above sea level, Geneva is surrounded by the Bernese Alps and the Jura Mountains. French is the city’s official language. About 3 hours from the Swiss capital of Zurich, Geneva is complimented by 45-mile long, 8.7-mile wide, 1,020-foot deep Lake Geneva, which is home to a number of fish species ranging from walleye to largemouth bass. Prior to the 16th century, Lake Geneva was named Lac Léman, which , having been revived in the 18th century, remains the lake’s official French name to this day. 60% of Lake Geneva belongs to Switzerland and 40% belongs to France.

In Geneva, keep in mind that, although the city is home to the United Nations Office at Geneva (UNOG), Switzerland is not part of the European Union (EU). Although it is not part of the EU, Switzerland does participate in the Schengen Agreement, which largely abolishes internal border checks, yet allows for police to cross borders in pursuit. The Schengen Agreement, as applied to Switzerland, also stipulates that short stays may not exceed 90 days in any 180-day period. Driving between Geneva and France generally is seamless.

Geneva’s professional football club is Servette FC, which plays at Stade de Genève on the city’s south side. Although English is spoken in Geneva especially in tourist areas, learning at least some French, and even Italian, phrases before visiting can be helpful. Geneva electrical outlets require special plug types (Types C and J), so it’s recommended to pack adapters for any electrical devices. Geneva’s currency is the Swiss Franc, cars travel on the right-hand side of the road and the legal drinking ages are 16 years old for beer/wine and 18 years old for liquor. Geneva accommodations are some of Central Europe’s best. Before we get to Geneva accommodations, let’s take a look at some more background information on the area to help you along the way.

The Gallic Allobrogian people first fortified the border town of Geneva to fend off the neighboring Celtic Helvetians. In 121 BC, however, the town fell to the Roman Republic. Julius Caesar once referred to the town as Genava, possibly in reference to the Celtic word genawa- / genu- (“mouth” / estuary), while referencing the Italian port city of Genoa (Genova). Under the Late Roman Empire, Geneva became Christian and acquired its first bishop circa the 5th century. The Diocese of Geneva, a Latin Church ecclesiastical jurisdiction / diocese, merged with the Diocese of Chambéry around this time. In the century prior, the town had been connected to the Bishopric of Vienne. Medival Geneva was known as pagus major Genevensis or Comitatus Genevensis (Middle Latin language) and later the Genevois province of Savoy. During the Middle Ages, the County of Geneva was ruled by a Holy Roman Empire “count”. In the late-14th century, however, the town was granted self-governance by way of a charter, albeit at the hands of the House of Savoy, a royal, Franco-Italian house. The 15th-century’s, newly formed Grand Council of Geneva instituted a “oligarchic republican” government. The Protestation Reformation reached the city early in the following century. Savoy rule was overthrown and Geneva allied itself with the Swiss Confederacy, or the Old Swiss Confederacy, a loose confederation of independent states. French theologian and pastor John Calvin, who inspired Calvinism, became the city’s spiritual leader in 1541. Calvin’s Geneva is sometimes referred to as “Protestant Rome”. After Calvin, Catholic France moved in by the 18th century. The Swiss banking system is rooted in the Great Council of Geneva, which outlawed the disclosure of information concerning the European upper class circa 1713. Due to the French crown’s persecution of his controversial writings, François-Marie Arouet, also known as Voltaire, sought refuge in Geneva, where he resided at Les Délices between March 1755 and late-1760. Catholic France’s presence was at odds with the Geneva townspeople. A conflict between upper-middle class merchant burghers and lower-middle class “natives”, who were principally watchmakers, was the Geneva Revolution of 1782. Having been excluded from voting or serving in office, natives, along with immigrant “habitants”, broke into the municipal armory and armed themselves on February 5, 1781. To assuage the impending rebellion, the Genevan Small Council voted to grant voting rights to 100 “natives” and 20 “habitants”, which was reneged over a year later by the Genevan Small Council, naturally sparking further revolutionary insinuations. Ultimately, with support from the Kingdom of France, the city-state of Bern and the Kingdom of Sardinia, the burghers exiled 21 prominent revolutionaries, who were followed-out by around 500 other natives / habitants, first to the Swiss town of Neuchâtel, where they were again exiled, and then to Waterford, Ireland. Shortly after the 1782 revolution, Geneva was annexed in 1798. At the end of the Napoleonic Wars, France lost Geneva, which joined the Swiss Confederation on May 19, 1815. Separation of church and state commenced in 1907, and from there Geneva began to flourish.

Home to over 200,000 “Genevans”, Geneva is Switzerland’s second-most populous city behind Zurich. Geneva is the Republic and Canton of Geneva’s capital. Although Geneva’s municipal area spans a mere 6 square miles, the city’s ranked as the world’s forth-most expensive city for expatriate employees. Historically, the Swiss banking system has been renowned for its levels of low risk and high privacy. Geneva has a number of tall buildings, though the city is not known for its skyscrapers. At 300 feet, Pictet Tower is the tallest building currently. Geneva’s main Christmas market is Noël au Quai. Defined by a temperate climate, The Peace Capital experiences warm summers and cool winters. Average summer high temperatures average around 80 °F, while winters stay around 40 °F.  Light frosts are common during winter nights. Snowfall is typically minimal within the city, though the distant, snow-capped mountains make for dramatic scenery. Additional points of interest are Institute et Musée Voltaire, Grand Théâtre de Genève, University of Geneva and Collège Calvin (Geneva’s oldest public secondary school – founded 1559 by John Calvin). Local foods include longeole (traditional pork sausage with cumin), malakoff (fried cheese ball), bircher muesli (breakfast cereal made with cream and lemon juice), rösti (potato fritter), fondue and chocolate. Popular drinks are white wine, craft beer, coffee and hot chocolate. Switzerland’s national drink is Rivella (soft drink since 1952 produced from milk whey). With some background information on the area, we’re ready for Geneva accommodations that are sure to inspire.
