Old Switzerland in the city
Pros:

Extremely cute hotel with a great restaurant attached. Location in the “old town” of Geneva makes it feel more private, but still very close to the shopping district and lake. Dinner at the restaurant hits all of the traditional Swiss cuisine. The only thing the hotel is missing is a cozy, fireside bar.

perfect location
Pros:

the breakfast although small selection, i could tell they were of high quality. the staff is very helpful and the rooms were always cleaned everyday. getting to the center was very easy by just going down the stairs in front of the hotel and that's it.. there is also an old famous restaurant just downstairs that's called Restaurant Les Armures you can book a table with the hotel. - also highly recommend the restaurant! they have delicious fondue and raclette!

Cons:

the sizes of the rooms were a bit smaller than i expected

Peaceful Exceptional Oasis in Old Town
Pros:

Wonderful boutique hotel well located atop a hill in Geneva's Old Town. Just a few minutes walk to wonderful restaurants, shops and attractions, yet in a very quiet, peaceful location. Rooms are well appointed, immaculate, and the staff are friendly and most helpful. If you're traveling by car, there is nearby parking or the hotel will valet for you.
