Value for money, simple room with everything you’d need, place is 5 mins from the lake and only a 10-15 min walk to the old town.

The hotel was awesome, in a good location for walking. It does seem as though the residents of the red light district are encroaching on the area though.

Great budget stay. Very central
After reading some of the reviews I was reluctant to book this but glad I did. We had a lovely room with little kitchenette. Really clean and great for what we wanted. Staff at Novotel next door were friendly and sorted out a mix up we had upon check in. It’s very central for city and train station and only round the corner from the much more expensive Novotel. The rooms may be noisy if your neighbours are but luckily we were generally ok. Geneva transport card is great for the boats. Nice restaurants nearby plus facility to eat in.

Confusing check in. Novotel is next door - and a member of the staff told us to check in at the property. But the check in WAS ACTUALLY IN NOVOTEL! Lady at the reception was very nice and helpful. The property was clean and tidy although we didn't had any toiletries in the dispensers. The bed was extremely comfy. Perfect location of the hotel

Seful but noisey
The place itself is really useful if you dont want to eat out every day as there is a small kitchen. The major problem is it is in the midle of the red light area and can be very noisey all night.

The property is very close to the train station and it is very easy and quick to arrive with the train form the airport. City centre is walking distance too. Full of restaurant around, may become a bit noise on saturday night. The room was nice and fully furnished and clean. The hotel give us a card you can us for the stay to take any transports for free in Geneva area and train back to the airport. Reception is at Novotel around the corner. Only downside, breakfast is not buffet, but limited (tea, coffe, 2 small pastries, yogurt and a banana).

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The first night the room was awful..it was on the second floor and had a view of the roof. Also the TV in the room (number 21 I think) was not movable so that it was stuck on one side. One couldn't turn it in the direction of the bed. When I booked, it said with breakfast. So I went down to the breakfast room and I was told that it was express breakfast. This was not obvious at the time of the booking. The express breakfast is not good and is not worth the money.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Very basic. Hot room (even when 14 degree outside) . Window could not be left open because of street noise. Chosen because it has facilities. All that is included was a small refrigerator and microwave, plate, fork spoon and table knife. Completely inadequate. I am in Geneva every month for work and would make this only an essential stay if nothing else was available. I moved out and did not stay the last 2 nights - even though I could not cancel the room and take back my money.

Ok if not fussy
Let's face it, this place is cheap by Geneve standards so best to lower your expectations. In short if you need somewhere central to crash and won't be spending much time indoor then this place is good. It's in a seedy part of town with lots of 'interesting' activities going on. Adds to the holiday experience. If it's not your thing then stay away. Personally we didn't feel threatened but others may be more sensitive. Our room was on the 5th floor and lifts were being upgraded so lugging our baggage up and down wasn't fun. Should be fixed by now. The so called kitchen is completely useless and dirty, so if you're staying here because of it just don't. The bathroom was recently renovated and good. Bed was fine. All in all value for money but as I said earlier one needs to approach it with lowered expectations.
