Planning a short/functional stay in GENEVA? Looking for a homely and nice italian restaurant in GENEVA?

Our two answers are here:

HOTEL JADE – MANOTEL (3 stars which upper rooms deserves a merited 4 stars)…
www.hoteljadegeneva.com
A small oasis of calmness, perhaps attributed to the Feng Shui principles adopted in its architecture…This small hotel nestles within a predominantly busy spot on the urban city centre, just 10 minutes across the train station (Gare de Geneva)…

RESTAURANT LE SESFLO
www.famillefrutiger.ch
There’s something very comforting about finding a place that just makes you feel “at home”.
From the warm welcome to the excellent and well-crafted menu, complimented by the amazing choice of wines, every experience at LE SESFLO is very well delivered.
If you like good Italian food, then this is arguably one of the best in Geneva.

RUNGSTED, Copenhagen: Once upon a time in the “Whisky Belt”…

www.kokkedalslotcopenhagen.dk/en/

The picturesque castle of KOKKEDAL is a great hotel surrounded by beautiful horse farms and situated literally on top of a golf resort…A short walk from the train station and close to Hellerup (21 km) and further south to Copenhagen (28 km in total). An interesting visit is the Karen Blixen House-Museum (she was the author of Out of Africa) & a must do thing is to rent a bike and have a ride to the Rungsted marina for a great meal, (we usually do that with good friends of ours whose beautiful office is really close, literally just a few steps away).

COSTA BRAVA: The Catalan Tuscany…

Worldscape 100

The Costa Brava between the french border and Girona in Catalunya is considered one of the 10 best places to visit (if not to live) once in a life time.

There is a secluded countryside area in Costa Brava at Baix Emporda, called The Catalan Tuscany, as it is refferred by its similar beauty: Medieval cobblestone villages and authentically catalan unspoiled rolling hills and lush green landscapes just 20 min drive from the best beaches.

Villages not to be missed: Monells, Madremanya, Púbol (visit its Gaudi & Gala castle-museum), and Sant Marti Vell, a perfect location to indulge in a gem of a peaceful place, a medieval catalan stone house known as “Masia” transformed into a boutique tiny hotel :
