Stayed at this hotel before and got ViP access with my platinum status but this time around I got zero benefits. Was even put in a small and inferior room in front of noisy service elevator. Tried messaging the hotel and Expedia about this but just didn’t have the time to chase as I was here busy with work. Quite disappointed with this 2nd visit compared to my first.

Hotel was nice but very disorganized. We were very much looking forward to staying at this property to round out our trip, but from the moment we got there it was very disappointing. Parking lot was small and full even though we had reserved parking. Check in took over 30 minutes even though we were the only ones at the desk. One person had to continuously ask the next person something while we were left waiting. Due to my Expedia status, I was upgraded to a suite, but if you didn’t tell me it was a suite I would have assumed it was the normal room - nothing special about it besides a little more room and a coffee table in it.

It was the best with EVERYTHING from the Royal Hotel. We appreciated it, and that we will stay here again for the next Geneva visit (in 2 years).
