Served the purpose. Was close to everything and convenient.  The walls are quite thin so you will hear people in the hallways and next door.  Bathroom had an odd smell. Small but it works- no frills. Clean. Odd things with the structure and layout: The walls have a stone-like popcorn ceiling material. Gaps in workmanship and the gaps in the ceiling where the air comes in are odd and a bit unsettling. Key for room-with a weighted keychain- not a card. Safe in room. Tea bag and one instant coffee and a decaf instant coffee. One pillow. It's great if you're staying in the city and need to be close to everything. I'd stay again but nothing exceptional. Meets the need.

Conveniently located right outside the central train station. Many restaurants close by. Rooms are basic but very clean. Bathroom also clean with shower only, good hot water. Front desk staff friendly and helpful. Convience store close by at the train station, small mini bar in hallway of each floor if you don't feel like walking. I have found hotels in Geneva can be quite expensive so this was a good value. My meetings were out by the airport but with free transport pass and one stop to the airport it was convenient and nice to be in the city center in the evening.

The room was very small and the bathroom was not very private. It was right as you came into the room with just colored glass separating the toilet and shower area.

Hotel is near the Cornavin train station yet in a quiet location and close to restaurants in all directions. Hotel staff were helpful and rooms were clean. We were able safely leave some of our stuff for storage while we took extended side trips.

This place was great. You are sooooooo close to the train station. Access to the tram ssytem is Geneva was easy due to the hotel providing a transportation voucher. The staff here are quiet and keep out of the way, but if you ask them for help they are exciting to share their ideas and opinions on Geneva! I would come back to this specific hotel, for sure! Geneva was beautiful!

Basic but clean and tidy, everything you’d need for a short break, nice and quiet at night, Wi-Fi ok, tea and coffee in room. Reception staff very helpful. Great location to see the city, five mins from railway station to get back and too to the airport, lots of restaurants close by to choose from. Would stay again for a short break.
