A Perfect Setting for your visit to Geneva
Pros:

Hotel Les Armures is perfectly located in Old Town Geneva within easy walking distance to all of the main points of interest as well as great restaurants and shopping. My room was well appointed and comfortable. The staff is excellent; very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. And the breakfast was a delicious way to start each day.

A travel through history, in full comfort.
Pros:

Staying at Les Armures is feeling and enjoying European history. The place is lovely without being flashy, it's "reserved luxury", with a keen focus on small wonderful details and preserving historical details (e.g. the ceiling of the breakfast room - it's stunning). Service is in line with the place: reserved yet attentive to every need. Highly recommended.

Pros:

Service Team is wonderful, the size of the room is too small. the location, into historical center, is perfect for those are interested on it.

Cons:

There is no heater in the room or bathroom just air conditioner, what about winter or cold days? It's almost impossible to reach the hotel by car.
