The hotel is placed quite conveniently, a short walk from the train station and very near the lake and the main bridge. The staff were friendly and helpful and breakfast was good and plentiful.The decor needs an updated or at least some 'freshening' of the many home made decorations. a bit dusty and faded. The bed was fine for a... More

I stayed there for business purposes. It is well located, close to a tram which will take you to the UN headquaters. It is not far from the train station - you can easily walk. The hotel has a lovely breakfast area. No internet is available in the room and there is only one computer to share in the small... More

This hotel was just a couple of minutes walk away from the main train station as well as the old town, so it is a great location! We stayed in room 104, and the room was a bit tight by American standards, but was perfectly adequate. The bed was acceptable, but not great. The pillows were awful. The bathroom was... More

We were staying for one night in Geneva before heading off to France. We thought it a good chance to visit a new city - until we started to look for hotels - the prices ranged from 250-450 Francs per night! We found Hotel de Geneve on the official tourist web site - it is 2* and provides clean and... More

This was a nice hotel for the price in Geneva, which is an extremely expensive city. It's close to the central train station and is walking distance from old town and the other main sites. Free breakfast, a fan in the room, a balcony were all plusses. I wouldn't say any hotel in Geneva is a good value, but this... More

Staff very friendly and helpful. Spotlessly clean. Room at back of hotel meant it was quiet. Standard expected of a 2*. Liked the complimentary tea/coffee in reception. Simple breakfast: fresh bread and jams, cereal, cheese, ham, fruit bowl, make your own toast, good coffee. As a lone, female traveller felt secure. Few minutes walk from station. Free internet access in... More
