Doing the Right Thing for Our Planet

Mandarin Oriental, Geneva proudly collaborates with GeniLac, utilising a 100% renewable and local hydrothermal resource from Lake Geneva to cool our buildings. Our commitment to sustainability also includes installing five Mobilit-é Réseau charging stations and implementing LED lighting throughout the hotel. Since January 1st, 2024, our electricity supply has been exclusively Swiss and renewable.

Doing the Right Thing for Our Guests

At Mandarin Oriental, Geneva, we are dedicated to our guests' well-being and sustainable practices. We were the first hotel in Geneva to go single-use plastic free, offering our guests sustainable yet luxurious in-room amenities. Our restaurants feature menus highlighting locally sourced products, such as the honey served at breakfast made by our own local beehives.

Doing the Right Thing for Our Community

Every year, Mandarin Oriental, Geneva provides each employee with one paid day to participate in charitable actions. In partnership with Services Industriels de Genève (SIG), furniture from renovated rooms is placed on the "Re-sources" platform, allowing local partners to obtain needed items for free. We also proudly support the Geneva Red Cross and initiatives like "Octobre Rose" by organising local community projects, totaling 1,400 hours of solidarity annually.
