A very clean and comfortable stay with a helpful and friendly staff. Excellent location as it was close to the train station, restaurants and was situated for a nice walk next to the lake. A pass for public transportation was a bonus.

10/10 Exceptional

It was an amazing hotel, everything we needed was around us, we enjoyed our stay so much, the staff was very friendly and helpful, special thanks to Mr Faisal who helped us a lot and made our stay more comfortable and pleasant
amany, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is one of the many hotels surrounding the train station in Geneva. This one is modern and can be reached easily via an undergound passage to a pedestrian mall, something to consider if you have heavy bags. Very clean facility, comfortable but sparse rooms. Very good buffet breakfast. Efficient staff at the front desk. Walkable to the lake and area hotels and shops, even a walk across the bridge takes no more than 20 minutes. I would stay here again.
Robert, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.
