Hôtel Baud

On the road between Geneva and Mont Blanc, this contemporary hotel sits on the banks of the Menoge River, with wide lawns that are essentially an argument for ordering another glass of wine and never leaving. Rooms run to fluffy duvets and oversized showers; larger suites add soaking tubs and garden views, and a few go thematic, including a moody blue Picasso suite. The restaurant on site makes staying over an easy call.
