Categories

Cleanliness
7.5
Many guests explicitly noted the hotel was clean and rooms tidy, but several comments call out old/soiled carpeting and bathrooms that feel dated or need maintenance.
Service
9.3
Service is consistently praised — staff are described as very friendly and helpful in multiple reviews; a few isolated issues (an unhelpful receptionist and slow kettle delivery) are noted but overall service is a strong positive.
Location
9.3
Location repeatedly highlighted as a major strength: close to tram, lake and convenient for exploring Geneva; many reviews cite excellent transport access.
Room Quality
6.8
Mixed room quality: comfortable beds and some roomy units reported, but frequent negatives — noisy rooms, very hot rooms with no air conditioning, small towels and some awkward/high bathtubs — reduce the score.
Amenities
7.1
Basic amenities present (kettle on request, kitchenette in some rooms, wifi), but lack of air conditioning, parking issues and occasional missing breakfast alternatives or small towels are recurring complaints.
Value for Money
8.4
Guests generally feel the hotel offers reasonable value for its category (adequate for a night, good location and clean rooms), despite some dated fixtures and amenity gaps.
Food and Beverage
7.9
Breakfast is often described as good and appealing, but there are repeated notes of cold items (eggs/hash browns) and limited options for dietary intolerances which temper the score.
Overall Experience
8.5
Overall impressions are positive due to friendly staff, convenient location and generally comfortable rooms; a number of practical issues (noise, heat/no AC, some outdated bathrooms) prevent a higher overall rating.

An OK hotel with good breakfasts, conveniently located to trams & a reasonable walk to trains.
Pros:

The room was OK. The breakfast and dining room were good. The location was OK for us to travel to places around and outside of Geneva.

Cons:

We were disappointed with the receptionist when we arrived. She wrote on a piece of paper our room number & that it was on the first floor, but after looking for some time we couldn't find it. We had to go back to her & then she corrected it to the ground floor, where we eventually found the room.
Then, when we wanted an electric kettle we had to contact her again. She said she'd have one sent to our room asap but hours later when no kettle had arrived we had to contact her yet again & remind her.
Not a good enough introduction to the hotel in our first few hours there! First impressions matter!
The males in reception that we spoke with on subsequent days were very good.

Pros:

Das Frühstück war ansprechend. Allerdings fehlen Alternativen bei Unverträglichkeiten. Z.b. hatte es keine Margarine oder laktosefreie Butter, auch nicht auf Anfrage. Sonst aber gut für ein paar Tage. Lage und Ausstattung Tiptop.
