Very helpful and friendly staff, convenient location to walk by the lake, to the train station, and on to the airport in only minutes. Nice coffee machine, great soundproofing for a good night's sleep, powerful aircon during the heat wave, attractive décor, and all at a relatively good price. Frankly, I consider it an excellent base for a stay in Geneva and would not hesitate to return again.

We had a wonderful stay at the Royal and would return back when visiting Geneva. Customer service was top notch from anyone we encountered. Tony went above and beyond during our stay, and his colleague Penelope was wonderful and very courteous too. The room was clean, spacious with all needed amenities for a family with young kids. Perfectly located for our trip. Thank you all!

This hotel has the perfect location. And the public transportation arrives at the front door. You have a grocery store right across the lobby and the common areas are perfect to drink a cocktail 🍹 there are plenty of restaurants found within walking distance. The Air conditioning in the room did not work too well but everything else was perfect! The staff was friendly and very helpful. We will definitely stay here again.
