A combination of history and modernity
The Hôtel de Banque, an iconic address in Geneva with a history dating back to 1907. The ensemble of three historic buildings in the heart of Geneva's city center is ideally located and offers a unique working environment.
The property, which was acquired by PSP Swiss Property in 2020, covers a total area of around 15,000 m2. Various interior areas have been renovated since the purchase to improve flexibility of use. The entrance areas have also been significantly upgraded and now reflect the elegance of the ensemble. A complete renovation of the building technology and LED lighting with automated controls will also have a positive impact on energy efficiency. The modern and renovated premises extend over seven floors, can be divided flexibly and combine history with modernity.
