Four Seasons Hotel des Bergues and Four Seasons Hotel Megève launch a new package that seamlessly marries refined cityscape exploration in Switzerland with alpine endeavours in France. Situated in the heart of Geneva, Four Seasons Hotel des Bergues offers an array of outdoor winter pursuits tailored for families and couples alike, including chocolate tasting sessions and educational visits to watchmaking workshops. Merely an hour’s drive away is Four Seasons Hotel Megève, nestled amid the snowy slopes of one of France’s most renowned ski resorts. A combined stay at both locales offers families and couples the quintessential winter holiday.

Private transfers can be organised between Four Seasons Hotel des Bergues and Four Seasons Hotel Megève at an additional charge. Guests can travel between the two in the comfort of a chauffeured car, taking in panoramic scenery along the way. Alternatively, helicopter transfers can be organised, offering an awe-inspiring perspective of the snow-laden landscapes below.

Four Seasons Hotel des Bergues Geneva

Located along the serene shores of Lake Geneva, Four Seasons Hotel des Bergues is conveniently positioned a stone’s throw away from Geneva’s enchanting Old Town. The city’s historical core is a delight, with cobbled pathways and quaint snow-dusted squares home to cafes and restaurants serving local fondue and raclette. The city offers a wealth of experiences, including visits to state-of-the-art galleries showcasing contemporary masterpieces. Guests can uncover the art of watchmaking through engaging workshops or indulge in a dose of retail therapy at the city’s independently run boutiques and high-end stores. There’s plenty on offer for little guests too, from fun Swiss chocolate tasting sessions to educational visits to artisan cheesemakers where they can learn the secrets of cheesemaking and sample Gruyère, Switzerland’s famous sweet and nutty cheese.

An inviting winter atmosphere prevails inside the Hotel, bestowing the sensation of a refined private residence. Perfect for couples or families, the rooms and suites artfully blend traditional and contemporary décor, and boast stunning lake views.

At Michelin-starred restaurant Il Lago, Chef Massimiliano Sena creates seasonal Italian dishes with a contemporary twist, with sharing plates served in a classically styled dining room featuring soft blue colour palettes. Trendy rooftop restaurant Izumi serves inventive Nikkei cuisine with subtle Peruvian influences and unexpected flavour combinations on a panoramic terrace offering gorgeous views of the city skyline and Lake Geneva.

Spread out over the top three floors is Spa Mont Blanc, a sanctuary of serenity offering a range of treatments thoughtfully curated to pamper even the youngest members of the family. The Spa’s most pioneering treatment is the Haute Couture Dr Burgener Switzerland ritual, the result of five years of thorough research. The treatment brings a completely novel, pioneering approach to anti-ageing skincare, with an ultra-personalised, made-to-measure package combining technology, skin analysis, cosmetic care and facials, to offer long lasting results.

Four Seasons Hotel Megève

The only hotel in Megève to offer direct access to the slopes, Four Seasons Hotel Megève is a cosy alpine hideaway perfect for couples and families. With a strong Rothschild family heritage, the village of Megève has retained its authentic character, with cobbled lanes home to fine delis and shops selling local crafts.

On the slopes of Megève is Idéal 1850, a lunchtime institution located at 1850 metres (6,070 feet) and accessible only by cable car. Within this chic alpine setting lies Megève’s most exclusive retreat – Suite Idéal. Spread out over 100 square metres (1,000 square feet), this sophisticated suite combines traditional alpine architecture with contemporary flair, with wooden motifs and exposed ceiling beams adding a chic, rustic touch. Walls are adorned with works of art carefully selected by Baroness Ariane de Rothschild, while sweeping vistas of the snow-capped mountains offer an awe-inspiring backdrop. Guests staying in the Ideal Suite benefit from the services of a dedicated butler who will take care of every aspect of their stay.

Upon arrival in Megève, guests will be welcomed at Four Seasons Hotel Megève, where they will be able to enjoy lunch at one of the Hotel restaurants or unwind with a relaxing Spa treatment (both available at an additional cost). From 3:00 pm onwards, guests will enjoy a 15-minute cable car up to Restaurant Ideal accompanied by their dedicated butler. Come evening, they will indulge in an exquisite dinner for two featuring delectable Savoyard specialities accompanied by French wines carefully selected by Head Sommelier Samy Sbity. After their dining experience, guests can step onto the expansive panoramic terrace, the perfect backdrop for stargazing with the aid of a telescope.

The following morning, a delicious breakfast is served as the sun rises over Mont Blanc and the Aravis mountain range. Suite Idéal’s location on the slopes means guests enjoy the unparalleled privilege of being the very first to set foot on the ski slopes. With the expert guidance of the resident butler, guests can embark on an exhilarating adventure across freshly blanketed snow. Alternatively, they can enjoy a more leisurely descent with a snowshoe trek across pine-shaded forests (ski passes and ski equipment can be provided at an additional cost). The Hotel offers a range of other exhilarating activities for those with a zest for exploration, from dog sledding and snowmobiling to helicopter and hot air balloon rides.
