British character with the finest Swiss hospitality

Throw open the French doors to your suite, breathe the fresh mountain air and gaze out over placid Lake Geneva and its famous Jet d’Eau, the magnificent 140-metre fountain, backed by snow-dusted Alpine peaks and the majestic Mont Blanc.

Set in the heart of the picturesque Swiss city of Geneva, the Hotel d'Angleterre combines the joys of a central location – the complimentary boat shuttle service leaves from just outside the hotel – with the relaxing atmosphere of a lakeside retreat.

Wine, sushi & signature cocktails

The Lighthouse Bar

With a wide rooftop terrace offering breathtaking coastal views, The Lighthouse Bar is hailed as one of the best bars in Umhlanga. Look forward to regular live music performances as you discover the extensive menu of light meals, snack platters, fine wines and sundowner cocktails. Be sure to try the signature cocktail at The Oyster Box, the Umhlanga Schling, made with cane spirit and cane sugar. While the terrace tables are the most popular option, on match days the big-screen TVs always attract a crowd to enjoy the game.

Open daily from 10am - 10pm.
Children under 12 years old are not permitted in The Lighthouse Bar.

The Chukka Bar

An icon of The Oyster Box, The Chukka Bar has occupied the same position in the hotel for more than half a century. Filled with polo memorabilia, The Chukka Bar is beloved for its timeless charm, cosy atmosphere and impressive collections of specialist beers, single malt whiskies and imported cigars. With a comfortable bar counter and cosy leather couches, this convivial corner of the hotel has become a firm favourite with locals.
