Voyage to Beau-Rivage

 

 

That’s right, it’s time to pack your suitcase and embark on a journey. The Beau-Rivage Palace is located on the shore of Lake Geneva. It is a real palace, built in 1861, and retains its own unique, refined atmosphere.

Here, every guest can find their own path to a wonderful break: enjoy a record number of romantic walks along the lakeside of Ouchy or enter a realm of bliss and relaxation, a world of carefree entertainment with your kids.

OLYMPIC FLAME

The Beau-Rivage Palace, located in the center of the Olympic capital, Lausanne, is full of sporting spirit. The hotel offers an Olympic package which includes one night’s stay with breakfast (along with fruit and water in the room), a complimentary “Rio Olympic Games” cocktail at the bar, and a reception visit, for one person, to the Olympic center and the “Destination – Rio” exhibition. tte Brazilian program, which runs at the Olympic Museum until September 25 th, 2016, will add excitement to your stay. Here you can visit various events and embrace the energy of Brazilian culture. This package also includes free access to the Cinq Mondes spa (a 1,500 square meter area with indoor and outdoor pools, sauna and hammam, a modern gym with views of the lake and 8 rooms for massage and treatment), fitness center and tennis courts. You also get a Travelcard that enables you to use public transport in Lausanne for free. The cost of the package is CHF 475 for two people.

 

 

TOTAL RELAXATION

Modern life requires us to be tough and stress- resistant, and so short breaks are essential for catching our breath and relaxing. Our “Total Relaxation” package will help you regain your strength. It includes: two nights in a double room with a lake view, plus a great breakfast as well as fruit, flowers and detox drinks. To intensify the benefits of the program, a session in the Cinq Mondes spa for one person is included: a relaxing massage (20 minutes) followed by facial Ko-bi-do treatment and massage (80 minutes), and 1 hour of yoga with a professional trainer. Price – CHF 1930 for two.

The return from bliss to an active life should be gradual. The hotel offers various free activities: lake tours in a small private boat, cycling, tennis and Nordic walking. You can do plenty of activities right within the hotel grounds – the 4-hectare garden is at your disposal. Before going to sleep, you can have a relaxing tea made up for you (there are several kinds to choose from) and be offered a comfortable pillow (you can choose from several options). When your cheek touches it, you will smell an Egyptian aroma of Cinq Mondes that will deliver you straight into the arms of Morpheus…

 

 

CHILDREN’S WORLD

Playgrounds, entertainment programs, special dishes and menus – they are standard things in many palace hotels. However, here at Beau-Rivage Palace we have decided to excite and genuinely surprise our young guests. For example, kids can participate in the “Be our concierge” workshop: a child is dressed in the uniform and given an opportunity to help the hotel’s concierge, who will talk about all their profession entails. Those who have a passion for cooking will certainly enjoy the chef’s dessert workshop. Beginner gourmets can not only show off in a chef’s hat, but will also learn how to cook delicious sweets and desserts to surprise their parents. Many will be delighted by tips from a florist, during the special workshop aimed at mastering the secrets of creating beautiful bouquets. But that’s not all: a professional bartender is ready to reveal the secrets of mixing Bori, a traditional Beau-Rivage Palace non-alcoholic cocktail, and other beverages, meaning that children and teenagers will be able to mix them on their own.

Adults will have a chance to feel like children again in the Charlie Chaplin museum, a temple for movie lovers and admirers of the great comedian. The 3,000 square meter interactive space will take you into Chaplin’s world of comedy and poignancy.

 

 

GOURMET’S PARADISE

Beau-Rivage Palace is the place where Anne- Sophie Pic, the only woman in Switzerland to be awarded three Michelin stars, creates her incredible masterpieces. Throughout the year, her restaurant holds fascinating gastronomic events – themed evenings, wine tasting and guest appearances from other famous chefs. You can spend a memorable romantic evening on board a small cruise ship, the same one that sailed here 100 years ago. During the three-hour dinner, prepared under the guidance of Anne-Sophie, guests will enjoy stunning views, a delicious menu and the special atmosphere of the Belle Epoque (gastronomic cruises take place on Tuesdays and Saturdays, from 18:45 to 22:30). The perfect venue for simpler dinners and relaxed meetings is Cafe Beau-Rivage (you should definitely try the tartar, perhaps the best in the city).

Anne-Sophie devotes some days to a special menu with wine: for example, on September 8 th, 2016, the dishes will be designed to match a selection of fine wines from Chateau Leoville Barton in Bordeaux. The menu will cost CHF 480 per person, including wine. For reservations please call 021 613 33 39 or email asp@brp.ch
