Institut Le Rosey is one of the world’s most prestigious and exclusive boarding schools, founded in 1880 and located on the shores of Lake Geneva at Rolle, with a winter campus in Gstaad in the Bernese Alps. Swiss Limousine Service has been the trusted chauffeur partner of Le Rosey families since 2008, providing discreet, reliable, and luxurious airport transfers for students, parents, and guardians arriving at Geneva Airport (GVA) from across the globe.
Two campuses, two seasons
Le Rosey is unique among Swiss boarding schools for operating two seasonal campuses. The main Rolle campus sits on the Lake Geneva shoreline, open all year, surrounded by landscaped gardens and forests. The Gstaad winter campus, in the Bernese Alps, hosts students from December through April with skiing, snowboarding, alpine hiking, and outdoor activities at the highest level. Twice a year, the entire school transitions between campuses — a logistical moment when reliable transport matters most.

Safety of young passengers — our priority
The safety of children is at the core of our operating model. We provide child seats and booster seats certified ECE R44/04 on request at booking — for infants, toddlers, or pre-teens. Our chauffeurs hold the Swiss professional transport license (catégorie B-121), undergo annual criminal record checks, and receive defensive driving training. Every driver who transports a Le Rosey student signs a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) with the family or family office.
For parents and guardians based abroad, we offer a dedicated recurring-driver service — the same chauffeur is assigned to your child’s transfers throughout the school year. A familiar face every term arrival, every holiday departure, every weekend exeat. Continuity, security, trust.
