Super convenient location, just a five-minute walk to both the train station and the lake – though Geneva isn't a huge city to begin with! 😂 The front desk service was excellent, and the room was spacious and very comfortable. I extended my stay for several nights and would definitely consider this hotel again if I'm back in town! Next time, I'll try the breakfast option.

The room was quite comfortable, clean, and tidy. The breakfast was also delicious. The hotel doesn't provide slippers or toiletries, so you'll need to bring your own. The hotel is close to the train station, offering a great location and convenient transportation.

The hotel is about a 10-minute walk from the train station. The room was very clean. We originally booked for three people, with one double bed and a sofa. When we got in, we saw the double bed was quite large, and they also helped set up a sofa bed. Later, we even asked the hotel for a public transport card.

The parking situation here is absolutely dreadful; you either need to be a professional driver or have a tiny car. It's the most cramped parking garage I've ever encountered in my life.

Good location near Geneva Lake and from the airport. Train station and public transport very accessible. Room size adequate though bathroom configuration is a little strange. If you are driving, be aware the basement garage access is extremely tight and if you have a big car, good luck not getting it damage, like I did. Breakfast is good too. Overall, it was a pleasant stay, though it was on the high $ side. But all of Switzerland is $$ side.
Response from Property: Dear Christopher, Thank you for taking the time to share your review.We are delighted that you appreciated the convenient location of our hotel, the adequacy of our room sizes, and our breakfast offerings. It is always our aim to provide a comfortable and enjoyable experience for our guests, and we're glad these aspects contributed positively to your stay.However, we regret to hear about the difficulties you encountered with our parking facilities. Our parking is designed to accommodate vehicles up to 1.7m high, and while we ensure the security and accessibility with an elevator connecting the parking to the lobby, we understand that navigating the space can be challenging for larger vehicles. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. Regarding the overall value, we acknowledge that Switzerland can be on the higher side in terms of expenses, and we strive to keep our prices competitive while offering a range of amenities and services to enhance our guests' experience.Nonetheless, we are pleased that you found the accessibility to public transport and proximity to the airport beneficial during your stay. With our prime location in the heart of Geneva and near Lake Léman, we hope that our guests can enjoy the best of the city's offerings, including restaurants, bars, and shops, as well as the convenience of being close to major transport hubs.We hope we will have the opportunity to see you again in the future.

The hotel's location is fantastic; it's just a 5-minute walk to Lake Geneva, with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. You can easily walk to all parts of Geneva city center. Breakfast starts at 6:00 AM, which was very convenient for us catching an early flight.
