With a growing footprint in Switzerland, the Ruby Group has announced plans for a second hotel in Geneva.

The new property will feature 124 rooms, with public areas located on the ground floor, and is being developed together with long-standing partner PSP Swiss Property. The site offers a total gross lettable area of 4,150 m² of former office space and continues the group’s focus on high-quality hotel conversions in prime city locations.

The hotel will be located at Rue de Hesse 18, 1204 Genève, a listed former bank building in the heart of Geneva’s financial quarter. Just a few minutes’ walk from the Rhône River and Ruby Claire Hotel & Bar, the site sits at the crossroads of the historic Quartier des Banques and the city’s creative hub, Les Bains – widely regarded as the cosmopolitan heart of Geneva and the place to be. The property offers excellent access to public transport, with major tram and bus stations just around the corner and Geneva Airport reachable in 15 minutes.

As part of the Ruby Group’s strategic growth plan, the hotel is one of several high-profile urban conversions currently underway across Europe. Known for unlocking the potential of complex, character-rich buildings, the Ruby Group has built a reputation for turning architectural heritage into modern Lean Luxury experiences.

The new Geneva hotel joins a development pipeline that includes projects in Berlin, Copenhagen, Rotterdam and Stockholm, among others, as the Ruby Group continues to expand its Lean Luxury philosophy across Europe’s most iconic cities.
