We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Edelweiss. This hotel is centrally located and a quick walk from the train station. Due to a airline snafu our reservation was complex and potential covered 3 different rooms. The hotel staff was very accommodating and provided an upgrade so we could remain in the same room. We were traveling with an infant and the Hotel was able to provide a crib.
Verey pleasant place to stay. A little pricey, but then again Geneva is the most expensive city in the world.
Staff was ok. Location was ok. Hotel looked way better in picture, rather then in person. The restaurant show was one of a kind, but I liked it.
Well located, exceptionally clean and comfortable, but a little on the cute side with excessive Swiss decor
The hotel is perfectly located, within walking distance of most tourist attractions, restaurants, and shops! It is well priced considering everything in Geneva is so expensive. The staff is very friendly and helpful! The rooms are clean!
Very convenient and has a fun, kitchy swiss theme. We got in too late to try the restaurant but it did mean the whole hotel smelled like cheese (which I suppose added to the ambiance). Also the elevator was so small we could barely fit two people in it and thought we might die the entire time we were using it. But as far as overpriced geneva hotels went this one was fine.
The room was clean, location is good, entertainment at the restaurant is very good... The overall Swiss prices are very high though, but I had a pretty good time!
Nice staff, very close to the lake, beside the jet d'eau, good free wireless internet service.
Hotel was in a good location. Close to buses and a short distance from the Geneva train station. Enjoyed old town and the hristmas decorations. Good location for taking day trips to the towns on Lake Geneva. Chillion Castle on the lake is worth the trip.
I was in Geneva for a conference. Though the hotel is aimed more at tourist travelers, it was ideal for my needs. The front desk staff was very friendly and gave much useful information about the area. Since it was a slow week, they upgraded my room even though I had a great rate already.
The feel of a bed and breakfast in the city! Fun decor, like you've been transported to an Alpine lodge. Breakfast has typical European options which were tasty. Ask if it's included; don't assume it is. Beds were good (pretty firm). Soap, shampoo and body wash are provided; bring your own hair conditioner and body lotion. Hair dryer seems standard in all the hotels. Short walk to the water and Le Jete D'eau (sp?), the tall fountain in Lake Leman. Also near the old city with lots of great architecture. Nearby are many restaurant options (didn't eat dinner at the Edelweiss), and 2 grocery stores across the street. Save money and buy snacks, sandwiches, fruit and store them in the in-room refrigerator (stocked with drinks, wine and liquor). Ate at the Bollywood Indian restaurant next door and loved the food and atmosphere. Large screen with Bollywood entertainment plays continuously! The Edelweiss has seven floors; ask for a top floor room, facing the water. You can see the fountain and some mountains (but other buildings block most of the view). Don't expect any messages to be given to other hotel residents; staff communication was poor and screwed up 2 of our daily plans. (Get cell phones). Easy to get around the city with buses and trams; can walk almost anywhere. Buy a rail pass at the airport station if you plan to visit other cities. The Edelweiss gives each client a free tram pass for Geneva. A great value and a nice stay!
