About

Sessius 1622 is a design-driven boutique manor housed within the 17th century Château des Cologny.

Spread out on three floors with an impressive courtyard and a cozy garden overlooking the Mont Blanc, the house was recently renovated in a style that draws inspiration from the owners’ design and international collection.

Each room is decorated differently with collectors’ and design pieces to make our guests feel welcome in our unique manor.

The property includes a small separate, charming loft apartment, nestled between the courtyard and the large old barn.

A cosy nest at the foot of the Jura, housing colors and scents throughout the four seasons. Tall linden trees shelter some 50 different varieties of camellias. Over 60 plants of roses interact with slim and tall cypresses, with summer pear trees and with a climbing grapevine.

While a bright purple wisteria hugs the manor surrounded by osmanthus and birch trees. We promote biodiversity to provide a safe haven to birds, insects and other fauna from the region.

Each guest is welcomed at the manor as our own personal guest. We are fond of gentle living and do our best to keep the property as a relaxing heaven free of stress. We promote and practice respect for our guests, our employees and our neighbors.

The property dates from 1622 and is a great example of French architecture from the region.  We are committed to preserving the historical features of the manor and investing in restoration and renovation.  We therefore will be grateful if our guests join our spirit and efforts by treating the property with caution and respect.

We provide a range of services, such as transportation, special chefs, personal trainers, yoga instructors, mountain guides.

The area offers a wide range of opportunities, and we will be very happy to help our guest organize their free time.

Arts and history: we’re only a few kilometers away from Château Voltaire, from Fort l’Ecluse, and from the city of Geneva with its enchanting old town, its museums , art galleries and very rich cultural life.

Sports: we’re at the foot of the Jura mountain chain, a heaven for hiking, for mountain biking, for snowshoeing. Two golf courses are in the immediate vicinity as well as many opportunities for horseback riding. We can provide a personal trainer, a yoga teacher, a mountain guide for personalized programs.

Last but not least, we like visual and culinary arts in its broadest definition and periodically organize our own events at the manor.
