The Evian Royal Ermitage is your Home Everything has been designed for you to feel at home: comfy armchairs, the warmth of an open fire, welcoming bedrooms...

The Evian Royal Ermitage, one of the most exclusive 42-acre estates in the world, is situated on the south shores of Lake Geneva and at the foot of the French Alps, overlooking Switzerland, only 45 minutes from Geneva Airport. At the Evian Royal Resort, you will be captivated by the unique charm of the Hotel Ermitage.

The Hotel Ermitage was built in 1908 – 1909 by the architect “Martinet” on the beautiful height of Evian next to the last stop of the funicular (today full restored). It is located on the “plateau des Mateirons” at a height of 125 meters above the lake. Built like a chalet with English-normandy-savoy style it has 3 floors with galleries opening on the lake and a savoy style roof. 

As soon as it opened the Hotel Ermitage welcomed a sophisticated clientele of dukes, counts and renowned families such as the Schlumbergers, the Singers or the countess of Castellane…Today it is a grand and elegant country residence offering 91 rooms and suites all decorated with wooden painted furniture.
