Geneva Hostels

The Green Marmot was the best interpretation of a great Japanese invention, the capsule hotel. As their popularity around the world grows leave it to the Swiss to nearly perfect the concept. The facility was brilliantly located only two blocks from the lake and at the Navigation beach. It was an easy walk to the port to take the lake ferries. Closer to the hotel, there are three major supermarkets to choose from. One minute away is the bus stop to the main train and bus station which is less than ten minutes. The same buses get you to connect anywhere in Geneve with ease. This is where a large city feels like a small town and every point of interest is just a few minutes away. The most important thing was the cleanliness of the hotel with its modern features which left one with a sense of wellbeing from having been there. The only drawbacks was there was only an electric tea kettle for hot water. A hot/induction plate would have been nice. However, the area was full of great restaurants of all prices ranges so you should never go hungry. I have stayed at capsule hotels all over the world and the Green Marmot is definitely one of my favorite places to visit.

The hotel rooms have bunk beds, and the entire space was clean, hygienic, and looked very new. We had a shared bathroom and toilet, but they were right across from our room and barely used. They were also new and very convenient. The hotel is super conveniently located, just a 5-minute walk from the city center.
