Hotel is near the Cornavin train station yet in a quiet location and close to restaurants in all directions. Hotel staff were helpful and rooms were clean. We were able safely leave some of our stuff for storage while we took extended side trips.

This place was great. You are sooooooo close to the train station. Access to the tram ssytem is Geneva was easy due to the hotel providing a transportation voucher. The staff here are quiet and keep out of the way, but if you ask them for help they are exciting to share their ideas and opinions on Geneva! I would come back to this specific hotel, for sure! Geneva was beautiful!

Basic but clean and tidy, everything you’d need for a short break, nice and quiet at night, Wi-Fi ok, tea and coffee in room. Reception staff very helpful. Great location to see the city, five mins from railway station to get back and too to the airport, lots of restaurants close by to choose from. Would stay again for a short break.

Super convenient to the train station. Also, just around the corner from a thoroughfare with restaurant, coffee shops, gelato. The walk to the lake and old town was also quick.

Very basic hotel room near the train station. Thing I liked most: actual hooks on the back of the door for hanging wet jackets. Things I liked least: the bathroom door that offered no privacy, and the thermostat that wouldn’t let me change the temperature or even the volume of airflow.

The air conditioning would not get the room less than 23.5 and we were hot. Staff tried everything, and delivered a fan which helped, But if you want a cool room I would check other hotels. Staff is great.

Only a few bus stops from the airport. Located just outside of Geneva Train Station. Centrally located with easy access to mass transit. Lots of restaurants and small markets around the area. Friendly staff. Cozy and clean room.
