In the heart of the medieval village of Yvoire, listed among the most beautiful in France, La Riviera Victoria welcomes you to a place steeped in history, with breathtaking views over Lake Geneva.

It all began in 1895, when the building was home to the Café de la Navigation. In 1913 it became the Pension Dufour, where people came to sleep, eat... and dance! It was known at the time as the Guinguette d'Yvoire, and the dance floor stood exactly where the reception is today. The first terrace appeared in the 1930s, then in 1949 the establishment became Les Flots Bleus, an iconic address for lovers of the lake. In 2006, the hotel was entirely rebuilt, with 17 rooms facing the water and the mountains. An invitation to calm and contemplation.

Today it is us, Victoria and Richard Dufour, who have taken over this beautiful house. The funny thing is that the place already bore our family name... a coincidence that immediately made us want to bring it back to life! We imagined La Riviera Victoria as a warm, lively, unpretentious place where people gather around a good plate of food or a glass facing the lake, with friends, family or as a couple. Brasserie cooking, fresh produce, a friendly atmosphere, and always a little breeze of freedom in the air.

No pretension here: just good taste, good wine and good times. Welcome home, on the most beautiful Riviera of Lake Geneva!
