About Le Richemond Geneva
- Painter François Diday owned the original building; Adolphe-Rodolphe Armleder rented it in 1875 and turned it into a 25-room guesthouse called Pension Riche-Mont.
- The Armleder family ran the hotel for four generations until financial difficulties forced a sale in the 1990s.
- Rocco Forte's 2005-2007 renovation expanded the hotel to 109 rooms and suites and added its Sapori restaurant along with Le Cottage and Le Bar.
- Dorchester Collection managed Le Richemond from 2011 to 2017, its first-ever third-party management deal, before the hotel went independent again.
- The hotel closed in July 2020 during the pandemic and has stayed shut since; new owner Jumeirah Group is adding a naturally lit, 25-meter indoor pool ahead of a planned late-2027 reopening.
