Business class passengers travelling with Swiss, as well as business class passengers of all Star Alliance partner airlines such as Lufthansa and Air Canada, have free access before their flight, but no guests are allowed.
Star Alliance Gold members also have access to the lounge, with one guest when traveling with Star Alliance on the same day. They can also use the Swiss Senator lounges (generally of better quality).
In the main terminal, when you arrive in the area after passing through security, you need to go up one floor to the mezzanine level to access most of the lounges at Geneva airport in Switzerland, including the SWISS Business Lounge. All the lounges in the main terminal are within easy reach of each other.
Follow the “Lounges” signs to the Swiss First lounge on your right.
You’ll arrive at the entrance to the Air France / KLM lounge, straight ahead, and the Swiss Business lounge will be just to your right.
The SWISS Busines Lounge is open daily from 6 am to 8:30 pm. Its surface area is just over4,500 square feet, with seating for 134. Curiously, there is no bathroom inside the lounge. You have to go outside to use a bathroom shared with the other lounges on the floor. In my opinion, this is the only drawback.
The SWISS Business lounge in Geneva consists of one large room: one side is designed for relaxing, the other for dining. Large windows let in natural light, but there’s no view of the tarmac.
This lounge is the little brother of the SWISS Business lounge at Zurich Airport. The food offer is a little less diversified, but satisfactory. I would have liked to find typical Swiss soft drinks, such as Rivella or Sinalco, but I had to fall back on the universal Coca-Cola products.
When I visited on a Wednesday morning in April, the lounge was only about 50% occupied.
Arriving in the morning at around 10am, I had breakfast in the lounge. The croissants and breads were tasty. Here’s everything that was on offer:
Soft drinks come in large bottles and you can pour yourself a glass.
Around 11:30, lunch is served. The pasta and chicken Stroganoff were excellent. For dessert, the vanilla and chocolate mousses were a nice surprise.
Generally speaking, traveling to a small airport like Geneva is much less stressful than to larger, busier European airports. It’s a similar story with the SWISS Business Lounge: despite its modest size, it’s easy to feel comfortable there.
