Les Armures, 5-star hotel and restaurant in Old Town, Switzerland
Les Armures is a hotel and restaurant in Geneva's Old Town set within a stone building featuring wooden beams and hand-painted ceilings. The property contains 32 rooms that blend historical architectural details with contemporary furnishings and amenities.
The building dates to the seventeenth century and was transformed into a luxury hotel in 1980. This renovation gave the historic structure a new purpose while maintaining its original character.
The restaurant serves traditional Swiss dishes like raclette and fondue following recipes that families have shared for generations. These meals are central to how locals gather during winter months and celebrate regional food traditions.
The hotel sits in the Old Town where it is easily reached on foot from the city center and historic streets surround the property. Pets are welcome without extra charges, and children under two years stay free.
Stone walls throughout the building display architectural features from the seventeenth century that were carefully preserved during renovation. Visitors can observe window frames and wall structures that are nearly 400 years old.
