Too hot to handle

Great position 5.minutes walk from tge train station. Nicely appointed and decorated room. Good Wi-Fi and TV, good bathroom. Major issue was that there was no air conditioning and as we were there in a heatwave this made the room unbearable at night. Room faced onto the street which was very noisy if you opened a window. Good fan provided but all it could do was circulate the hot and increasingly humid. Cut our losses after two of the three nights and.moved to a hotel with air con.

The property is a little dated but clean and tidy. The room was fiarly large for a twin room. Very well located, close to the main train station and only 5 mins walk to the lake. Lots of eating options nearby too.

Great proximity to the train station and very walkable to Old Town, the lake and other parts of Geneva. There are several good restaurants nearby along with stores, pharmacy, etc. My room was clean and tidy and although small (by American standards) still had a small mini bar, tea pot, and fan. The staff was friendly and helpful and I would certainly stay again if my travels take my back to Geneva.

Great property for the location (2 minutes from the front of the main station) and in a safe area. Supermarkets and restaurants close by as well as a range of other mainstream shops. Friendly staff and good facilities. However, I had to rate it down on facilities because there is no air conditioning. Although they advertise fans are available, these are not ceiling fans but pedestal fans. It was so hot that I could not sleep. We are in the middle of an unexpected heatwave in Europe and normal infrastructure is just not coping well

Great location and spotless - but no aircon

Because there was no air-conditioning in the room (which is not that unusual for Switzerland) the room was very hot for my stay in late May - I was on the first floor and when I went to open the window, all I could hear was noisy street sounds. It all meant that it was not possible to get a good nights sleep. The staff were very friendly and the room was a good size and the hotel was spotlessly clean and in a great location but the lack of Aircon was a big limitation for the stay. Maybe the hotel had better rooms available mine.

Its literally next door to the Geneva Train Station. Super convenient if you want to move around using the Swiss trains. Property was clean, front desk ladies were very helpful and the breakfast was quite good actually with the right amount of options for a hearty meal in the morning. It was a leisurely 5min walk to the Geneva lake and the dining options nearby ranged from budget friendly to upscale. Will stay again if we are in Geneva.

Great location.

This was the last hotel in a longer trip. The hotel is very near the bus terminal and just across the road to the train station so really convenient. The room was ok, clean and comfortable. We’d to ask for tea because there was only 1 teabag there. But staff were pleasant and everything as expected. I’d stay again.
