Lovely old hotel right in the city centre with tram and bus stops right outside the front and a short walk to the train station. We had a beautiful view of the river from our room where we could also see the snow-topped mountains. The staff were very polite and helpful, storing our luggage for us on our last day. Geneva is a very expensive city to visit, so this hotel was a great bargain.

The hotel is excellently located. One step out of the door turn left and left again and wonderful photo opp if the Lake Geneva Fountain. Great restaurants within walking distance in all directions. Lots of international cuisine on offer. Physically, the hotel is a bit tired but clean and the staff were very welcoming.

Great location with veranda at the headwaters of the Rhône. Room in a classic style, easy walkability to the lake, the museums and the Old City. Staff was pleasant and helpful. Dining and drinking options plentiful, particularly on the left bank. Bathroom a little small, but who spends time in the bathroom when marvelous Geneva awaits? We shall be back.

Basic hotel with great location

Basic hotel for a great price. Our room had a great view of the river. There is a bit of road noise, no A/C, no breakfast and the bathroom is very small. They do email you Geneva transport cards so airport transfers are easy and free.

The staff are terrific and very responsive. They are very easy to reach and accommodating. We were each provided with a pass for public transportation for free, which was a very nice touch. We chose this hotel 100% on the location and the fact that we were only spending one night in Geneva and did not care in spending a lot of money, especially since we are a family of six. We had no intention of spending too much time in the hotel. For that purpose, this hotel met that expectation completely. I would warn, though, if you plan to stay here, that should be YOUR intention as well. The rooms are very small and starkly dressed. Our room had one chair and a very tiny, iPad size TV. The room was clean as were the sheets. You do have your own bathroom. But it simply is not made for families with small children because there is not enough room. Our children are much older and so they were able to get their own rooms. Location is outstanding and an easy walk to the waterfront and sites of Geneva and it is safe.
