About

In Évian-les-Bains, on the shores of Lake Geneva, the Royal Palace rises in a setting where crystalline waters meet alpine mountains. This palace, emblematic of French hospitality, reflects discreet refinement and a history deeply rooted in its natural surroundings. Built in the early 20th century, it combines Belle Époque architecture with modernity, while offering a Michelin-starred dining experience and renowned wellness services.

History & Heritage

Completed between 1906 and 1909, the Royal Palace was designed by Parisian architect Albert Hébrard, commissioned by the Société des eaux minérales to realise a vision of hotel elegance between lake and mountains. The building, a witness to an era marked by influences of the Belle Époque, illustrates the ambition to merge architectural innovation with natural benefits.

Architecture & Design

The architecture of Hôtel Royal Palace, typical of its construction period, reveals a harmonious dialogue between classicism and functionality.
