	MORE GENEVA

Geneva in the south of Switzerland is the biggest city of the French part of Switzerland. Geneva is one of the most international swiss cities. During the 19th century and at the beginning of the 20th, Geneva welcomed many political refugees. Based on the ideas expressed by the Genevan, Henri Dunant, the International Committee of the Red Cross was founded in 1864, the first of many international organizations to settle there. Geneva offers all the advantages of a small metropolitan area with the benefits of the top-quality facilities and services normally found in much larger cities - an infrastructure that is among the most extensive and efficient in Europe. The city provides the largest hotel and catering capacity in Switzerland, with over 14,000 beds and 1,100 restaurants. Hotels range from five-star luxury establishments to tourist-style accommodations. All are well managed, combine modern efficiency with old-world charm, and have multilingual staff offering the time-honoured Swiss tradition of personalised service.
