For more than £50,000 per night, you can lounge on a 1,700 square-metre terrace with views of the mountain-lined Lake Geneva, play a Steinway grand piano, wash in your pick of 12 marble bathrooms and sleep soundly behind bulletproof glass.

The glass-balconies (there are four) and floor-to-ceiling windows mean uninterrupted, 360-degree views.
