"Excellent hotel centrally located in old-town Geneva. It’s basic but does what it advertises extremely well. Single rooms are small, but that is why they are less expensive. Dyson fans in the rooms make up for lack of A/C. I can’t really think of anything lacking at this price point and location."

"Well located. Walking distance to the old town, the lake, the stores and other attractions. No parking but free pass for bus tram and train whom are easily accessible. 25 minutes bus ride from the airport. Some rooms are very small…"
