Four Seasons Hotel Des Bergues Geneva

The hotel may be on Lake Geneva, but the restaurant offering lets guests nip around the world; the rooftop Izumi serves Nikkei cuisine, Il Lago masters the art of Italian cooking and dessert lovers can roll up their sleeves in a pastry-making masterclass (cue the ‘you made this?’ reactions). Miracles are worked in facial form at the spa, where the renowned skincare expert Dr Burgener creates a little ‘haute couture’ for skin, with small-batch products and bespoke programmes.
