Getting there and practical details

Neighborhood
Old Town, beside Saint-Pierre Cathedral and Maison Tavel

Restaurant Les Armures can host private dinners, company evenings and celebrations for up to 60 guests across three historic rooms. It occupies a 17th-century house in the Old Town of Geneva, next to Saint-Pierre Cathedral, and belongs to the boutique hotel of the same name.

Seminars and company events

The restaurant offers its private spaces for company evenings, birthdays and other celebrations. These are dining formats: the site does not describe seminar rooms, projection equipment or day delegate packages, so this address suits an after-work dinner, a client evening or a team celebration rather than a full-day meeting. Ask the team whether a private room can be arranged for a short presentation before dinner.

Weddings and receptions

The official site names celebrations in general and does not describe a wedding offer. For a family reception or anniversary dinner, the three rooms offer different sizes, from an intimate table of twelve to a main room of thirty. Ask the team directly if you plan a wedding-related meal.

Rooms and capacities

There are three private spaces. The main room takes up to 30 people. The Salle Cervin takes up to 18. The vaulted room takes up to 12. Together the three spaces hold 60 guests. The restaurant describes them as historic rooms, with an atmosphere that ranges from an intimate cellar feel to an alpine chalet. A terrace is also part of the restaurant.

Rooms are not rented alone: a minimum consumption applies to a private hire. Semi-private hire is available on request. For groups, the kitchen serves a single menu to all guests, with exceptions for allergies, intolerances and vegetarian meals. Group menus are published as a PDF on the site.

Accommodation

The hotel has five room categories: Single Design, Superior, Deluxe, Prestige and Junior Suite. The official site does not give the total number of bedrooms, so check availability early if guests will stay overnight. The hotel also has a wellness area and a wine bar.

Catering

The kitchen is Swiss and seasonal. Signature dishes named on the site include veal strips in the Zurich style, grilled Saint-Gall sausage and half-and-half fondue (Vacherin and Gruyère) served with a Valais plate. The restaurant keeps a wine list that it selects for quality, and the wine bar next door can serve a drink before or after a dinner.

History and setting

Les Armures stands in a building from the 17th century in the historic center of Geneva. The hotel adjoins the Maison Tavel, the museum of Geneva's history, and Saint-Pierre Cathedral. The Place du Bourg-de-Four, the shopping streets rue du Marché and rue du Rhône and the shore of Lake Geneva are a short walk away.

Getting there

The hotel address is Rue du Puits-Saint-Pierre 1, 1204 Geneva. The Old Town is on a hill and is mostly pedestrian, so guests usually arrive on foot from the lakeside or the tram stops below. Contact the restaurant team at +41 22 818 71 71 for a quote.
