Jiva Hill Resort

Technically in France but billed as Geneva, Jiva Hill Resort sits in the Jura foothills with the valley and Lake Geneva spread out below, which makes the billing argument feel a little beside the point. It's a small, rich-feeling resort, 28 rooms and six junior suites with private terraces and Jacuzzis, favored by business travelers with good taste and leisure travelers who ski. The spa runs larger than the room count suggests.
