Fairmont Grand Hotel Geneva to Auction Entire Contents Ahead of Major Renovation

A Historic Auction for an Iconic Hotel

The Fairmont Grand Hotel Geneva, a legendary property with a legacy dating back to 1885, is preparing for one of the largest hotel contents auctions in European history. As the hotel embarks on a major transformation in Q2 2025, its entire contents—from luxury suites to fine dining establishments—will be made available to bidders in a four-day auction running from February 17-20, 2025.

The hotel, famed for its spectacular location on the shores of Lake Geneva, offers stunning views of the Jet d’Eau, Mont Blanc, and the French Alps. With 412 elegantly designed rooms and suites, multiple world-class restaurants, a luxury spa, a renowned 1,400-seat theatre, and the Java nightclub, the Fairmont has been a symbol of European luxury hospitality for over a century.

As part of its extensive reimagination into a modern, sustainable luxury destination, the hotel is clearing out its existing interiors—presenting a unique opportunity for collectors, hospitality professionals, and design enthusiasts to acquire high-end furniture, artwork, and commercial assets.

What’s Going Under the Hammer?

Over four days, bidders will have access to thousands of items spanning every part of the hotel—from guest rooms to back-of-house areas. Notable auction categories include:

• Luxury guestroom furniture – Beds, nightstands, seating, and décor from the hotel’s elegant suites.

• Lobby and common area furnishings – Iconic statement pieces that have welcomed high-profile guests for decades.

• Conference and banqueting equipment – Tables, chairs, AV systems, and specialty décor from large-scale event spaces.

• Commercial kitchen assets – Professional-grade appliances, including ovens, refrigeration units, and catering equipment.

• Theatre and entertainment equipment – Assets from the Théâtre du Léman, the hotel’s 1,328-seat performance venue.

• Spa and fitness center assets – High-end gym equipment, treatment room furnishings, and wellness accessories.

• Outdoor and terrace furniture – Patio seating, parasols, and decorative elements from the hotel’s lakeside terraces.

• Office and back-of-house equipment – IT systems, desks, and operational materials from behind the scenes.

This auction is an unprecedented opportunity for hotels, designers, restaurateurs, and private collectors to acquire high-quality furnishings and equipment at competitive prices.

A Commitment to Sustainability

Beyond its sheer scale, this auction represents a progressive approach to sustainability in the hospitality industry. Rather than discarding furnishings and equipment, the Fairmont Grand Hotel Geneva is promoting a circular economy by enabling items to be reused and repurposed.

The move aligns with broader industry trends as luxury hotels embrace environmentally responsible refurbishment strategies. By allowing items to find new homes, whether in boutique hotels, restaurants, or private residences, the Fairmont ensures that its past remains part of the future.

How to Participate in the Auction
