Ascend by private elevator to The Residence, an aerie overlooking glimmering Lake Geneva on the 18th floor of the thoroughly refurbished, 1960s-era InterContinental Genève, which is nestled in the United Nations district. The lair of umpteen dignitaries and celebutantes, the discerning hotel serves as a tranquil hub and the consummate backdrop for making deals. Its serene, Zen-inspired, feng shui-aware design by Tony Chi emanates positivity throughout the hotel but no place more than in the two-wing Residence. Encompassing almost 7,000 sq ft, the suite divides into a duet of pied-a-terrelike sections, each with grand bedrooms, personal living areas, separate dining rooms and floor-to-ceiling windows. Entered via immense bronze doors, The Residence also features common areas, such as a library and a Grand Salon with fireplace. Book the entire floor to include nine additional rooms for ultimate privacy.
