Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a mix of old-fashioned charm and comfort, with rooms in need of renovation but still cozy. The staff is attentive and welcoming, making up for some shortcomings in facilities and dining options. A central location with easy access to key attractions is a major bonus.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel! The Deluxe room I stayed in was spacious and very comfortable, although facing a busy street, which could get a bit loud at times. The room was well-equipped and prepared, offering a more generous size compared to typical European hotel rooms.
The hotel offers clean, bright, and spacious rooms facing the inner courtyard. The service is exceptional, making it one of my best hotel experiences. The location is perfect, just a 6-minute walk to the train station and close to all attractions. The dining experience is amazing with very helpful staff. The facilities are top-notch and convenient.
The hotel is a gem close to the serene Lake Leman, offering clean and comfortable rooms with friendly and accommodating staff. However, the dining area could use some improvements. A great value for the location.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, though a bit small. The staff was incredibly efficient and provided me with all the information I needed. The location is excellent, very close to the lake and convenient for exploring central Geneva. The dining experience was good, albeit a bit over the top. Overall, a great value for money option in central Geneva.
My stay at the hotel was lovely! The rooms were super quiet and spacious, facing the inner courtyard, though they could use a modern update. I found them very comfortable and clean, with the Molton Brown amenities being a nice touch. The service was phenomenal, and the staff were great and thoughtful, although there was a lack of a personal touch onsite. The location was perfect, being close to the lake and offering easy access to public transportation; however, there were some ongoing renovations in the lobby area. The dining experience was varied with good quality options, but some areas felt cold and not very pleasant. Overall, a comfortable and pleasant stay.
The hotel offers spacious rooms, though they smelt a little musty, and not the most budget-friendly option. The service was a mix of hospitalization and friendliness towards kids, with a slight issue of attitude when requesting quiet. The location is superb for easy access to public transport but lacking in inviting spaces to linger. The dining was overpriced for an ordinary buffet, yet there are local products available.
I had a comfortable stay at this hotel with nice, clean, and spacious rooms. The air conditioning was very effective, making it a cozy experience. The staff provided incredibly efficient and friendly service, although the price for dining was a bit on the higher side. The location was wonderfully central, perfect for exploring the area, despite an initial challenge with luggage access from the airport. An extra basic dining experience was compensated by the proximity to everything I wanted to see and do.
The hotel is located in a convenient spot near Lake Geneva, one stop from the Station and close to the main shopping and restaurant area. The rooms, while facing the street, could use a refresh as they felt a bit dated and cramped for space but were recently renewed. The service was fantastic, offering amenities like room service, car hire, and housekeeping, although there were some technical challenges with the pay TV. The dining experience was considered overpriced for what it offered, with the food being cold and not very pleasant. Overall, the location is superb for both walking and using public transportation, perfect for boat trips around the lake.
