We liked the room. Lots of space and a little different
Only complaint was the bed! I’m 61 and daughter is 22 and both woke up with back and neck aches. Too hard a mattress and bad pillows.
9.0
Convenient to old town and waterfront. Windows actually opened but totally kept out sound from the outside when closed up. Overall noise level was very quiet, just a few footsteps from above.
Given the traffic and parking in Geneva, the hotel is not car friendly. Reasonable walk from train station. Only main lady was fluent in English but staff was friendly and tried to work things out. Very minor point really.

As soon as we walked in the staff was amazing from the beginning. We got there before check-in and were able to store our luggage. When we came back later in the evening to officially check-in and man who helped us was amazing and answered all of our questions! The location is great as well, and located very close to our tour pickup spots.

Staff was very nice and friendly. Breakfast was good. Location was great.
The bathroom smelled bad, especially if the door was left closed. It was a strong, sulfur-like smell. There was also a quiet mechanical noise from the room or hall that would go on and off all day/night

Jak w większości hoteli w tych stronach, źle położone odpływu w wyniku czego czuć nieprzyjemny zapach spod prysznica

Absolutely fantastic location
Nice shower
Nice big windows that you could open
TV was slow, small and not a smart tv
Coffee machine problems
Spa was closed
Rude staff on several occasions
Waiting in the cold and rain whilst the receptionist was on the phone, wasn’t the warmest welcome.
Charged an extortionate rate for the mini bar, was told (somewhat aggressively) that we shouldn’t have had the waters, beer and small Pringle can in there as it’s so expensive. We should have had one or the other. Was told that there was a price sheet regarding this on top of the fridge, this was not true. Response to this was “we are a 3 star hotel, what do you expect?”
Had to fill out a lengthy form when we arrived even though the receptionist had a sheet with our details printed on it already?

Breakfast was not included, it wasn't that great for the cost

Great location, near the train station. Good price for Geneva .
We were on the top floor where all the lighting in our room was located over and around the bed so we had to use our phone torches to see into our drawers , which were located on the opposite side of the room.
9.0
the location is perfect ! Close to old town and to the gare Cornavin ! The staff was super nice and they offer an amazing breakfast at the coffee house inside the hotel.
The shower space was very small , it was difficult to move inside it and Im a tiny person . And they have some mold spots in it .
