About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Top location, a block from everything, no cleaning fee, Bistro Suite

If you want the best of Lake Geneva from the one of the hottest locations in the city this then you will love staying here! You are a block from great restaurants, bars, the Riviera docks, the Riviera beach, boat rentals, shopping, and more. You'll park your car in our free parking and not need it for the rest of your stay.

Relax in your private suite, or sit and enjoy the outdoor balcony with a beautiful view of the lake and downtown. When you’re ready to enjoy the town, simply step outside

If soaking up the sun and relaxing at the beach is your idea of a good time, you are 1 block away from the lake and enjoying your time relaxation in the sand.

Being setback 1 block from the main street allows you easy access to everything Lake Geneva has to offer and is surprisingly very quiet and relaxing.

Enjoy staying in an amazing location that is clean and well maintained without the exorbitated cleaning fees everyone else charges.

Ole Bistro Inn is located in the Historic District of beautiful downtown Lake Geneva. Unlike all the bland hotels you've stayed in, the Ole Bistro Inn is uniquely modeled after the charm, romance, and intimacy of an old Paris bistro. It is an atmosphere that will amaze you. The Bistro suite is great for couples, solo adventurers, and business travelers.

There are 3 suites at this location so be sure to check out all of them. If you have a larger gathering, rent multiple suites or the entire building!

Suite has access to both an outdoor balcony to enjoy the scenery and a downstairs patio if you prefer. You will love sitting on the balcony, relaxing, people watching, and enjoying the view.

Enjoy your rest on our new Verlo Plush double sided mattress, with new pillows, and new Simply Vera Wang sheets.

After each guest stay all sheets, pillow cases, and blankets are replaced with freshly washed linens, and all linens are machine washed with bleach.

I am available for any questions throughout your stay

Bistro suite was such a unique and cool atmosphere! We decided to book this because of all the fantastic reviews and thought “why not?” Everything was as expected. Great location, quiet, clean, roomy. Host Nicholas was responsive and gave us helpful recommendations with the check in info. We would recommend staying here.

Best location ever......
The Bistro was the perfect place. It was really so cozy and comfortable. Perfect location!!!! We never even moved our car once we arrived because we could walk everywhere. The balcony was great to sit and read, sip on a glass of wine, or drink your morning coffee. Nicholas was super responsive when needed. We would definitely go back. Don't pass this place by.

Unique accommodation. Fabulous location.
We really enjoyed our stay at The Old Bistro Inn. It was comfortable and spacious. The location was perfect. We really enjoyed walking the lake path and got to see fabulous homes and beautiful scenery. We also took in the Dancing Horses show nearby to our delight. An all around great stay.

Another nice weekend at Ole Bistro Inn
We usually stay at the Bistro Suite when in Lake Geneva. It is our preferred suite / place to stay. No issues with checkin or checkout or with the suite itself. We will be back in the spring.

Our go-to place to stay in Lake Geneva
We spend long weekends in Lake Geneva several times a year and we almost always stay at the Ole Bistro Inn. The downtown location is great and the price is very reasonable for the accommodations provided.

Weekend Getaway
We will definitely be coming back to stay here! Right on the edge of town, so we could walk everywhere, even the beach. The kitchen had all the basics we needed. Bed was clean and very comfy. The balcony is shared, but it’s so big that it didn’t matter. And a reserved parking spot in the back, so you don’t need to worry about finding one!
