Discover Le Lion d'Or
In 1951, the commune of Cologny officially acquired the inn, which was handed over to Jacques Lacombe 10 years later. The latter, surrounded by an exceptional brigade composed, among others, of Louis Pelletier, Daniel Ficht and Jean-Paul Goddard, transformed the restaurant into an unmissable gastronomic destination, and in 1972 received the "golden key" from Gault et Millau for having obtained the best rating of the restaurants visited in Geneva and Lausanne. Following this success, he quickly obtained two stars in the Michelin Guide, thus ensuring that the Lion d'Or would become one of the greatest restaurants in the Lake Geneva region. The story does not end there. In 1996, Michelin-starred chefs Gilles Dupont and Thomas Byrne set out to write a new chapter for this renowned establishment. Mixing their origins in their kitchen, they will never stop bringing the Auberge du Lion d'Or higher and higher and making it a reference within the greatest institutions such as Relais & Châteaux.
Today, it is our chef's turn to write the history of this emblematic address, bringing his know-how and creativity. The Lion d'Or will continue to make the eyes of its guests shine.
