SV Hotel has achieved a major milestone by opening the Residence Inn Geneva City Nations, marking the debut of Marriott International's Residence Inn brand in Switzerland. This extended-stay hotel caters to long-term guests, adding to SV Hotel’s portfolio and reinforcing its position as a leader in Switzerland's hospitality industry.
Located in the Petit-Saconnex district of Geneva, the hotel offers 99 spacious suites designed to accommodate guests staying for extended periods. Each suite is equipped with a fully furnished kitchenette, providing the comfort of a private apartment along with the services of a full-service hotel. Amenities include complimentary hot breakfast, high-speed Wi-Fi, and a range of hotel services tailored to long-term visitors.
The Residence Inn Geneva City Nations also features a modern meeting room for business needs, a 24/7 fitness center to help guests maintain their wellness routines, and a 24/7 Grab-and-Go Market for quick snacks or essentials. Its prime location, just eight minutes from Geneva International Airport and close to the city center, makes it an ideal choice for international business travelers, diplomats, and families seeking a comfortable, long-term stay in Geneva.
Phil Andreopoulos, Chief Operating Officer, Sub-Saharan Africa, Owner and Franchise Services, EMEA, expressed his excitement about the hotel’s launch. "The opening of the first Residence Inn in Switzerland marks a significant step in the expansion of this successful brand in Europe. SV Hotel has already proven to be a reliable and innovative partner in introducing the concept in Europe. They will undoubtedly set new standards in Geneva with their experience and understanding of the needs of long-term travelers."
The hotel is specifically designed for guests staying five nights or more, offering ample living space, privacy, and high-quality service. The Residence Inn’s concept, "It’s not a room. It’s a Residence," aims to make long-term guests feel at home, allowing them to continue their daily routines seamlessly during their stay.
Marco Meier, Managing Director of SV Hotel, highlighted the importance of this opening for the company. “With the opening of the first Residence Inn in Switzerland, we are continuing our success story as a pioneer in the extended-stay segment. We are proud to introduce this proven brand to the Swiss market after opening the first Residence Inn in Europe in Munich in 2011. The Residence Inn Geneva City Nations is the perfect addition to our portfolio, and it further proves our expertise in providing customized solutions for discerning long-stay guests.”
Marie Pierre Carite, General Manager of Residence Inn Geneva City Nations, added, "Our hotel is more than a place to stay; it is a temporary residence for individuals who prioritize quality, privacy, and exceptional service." She emphasized that the brand’s focus is on integrating work and leisure, offering thoughtful amenities and community events that make long stays productive and comfortable.

The resort’s new brand identity, built around the theme "The Journey to Conscious Being," aims to guide guests on a transformative wellness journey that nurtures both body and soul.
Dharana's rebranding reflects a renewed focus on wellness and the experience of nature. The wordmark for the new identity draws inspiration from natural sounds, symbolizing the harmony that guests are expected to feel during their stay. The brand aims to create an atmosphere that encourages personal discovery and well-being.

The design perfectly encapsulates our vision for Dharana as facilitating holistic well-being, where guests can immerse themselves in nature and experience personal growth and rejuvenation. The intricate details in the design reflect our commitment to providing a tailored wellness experience for each guest, nurturing a deep connection with the ecosystem and the true essence of nature."
Ronita Mukerjee, Executive Director - Client Services at Landor India, further explained the vision behind the new brand identity. “Our objective with the new brand identity for Dharana was to explore the concept of well-being through a vibrant, engaging, and unique visual representation that embodies a transformative journey, harmonizing the body, mind, and spirit. The narrative of the brand centers on the theme of 'The Journey to Conscious Being,' which highlights wellness as a continuous evolution, offering various pathways at Dharana.”
The rebranding effort is also seen as an opportunity to position Dharana as a prominent player in the luxury wellness sector on a global scale. With this transformation, Dharana aims to redefine what it means to offer a personalized wellness journey. The retreat will emphasize a strong connection with nature and a focus on mindful living.
