Good hotel. Needs to turn the AC on in-between seasons
Pros:

Good size room and decoration. Nice breakfast

Cons:

The real issue for me was the fact that from April to May they don’t turn the AC on as it is in-between seasons. The room was warm and I had to sleep with the window open, which resulted in noise in the AM. Location has some abandoned buildings nearby

Classy boutique hotel in center city, an easy walk to many sites in Geneva.
Pros:

A charming, small boutique hotel 5 min to Cornavin train station (and therefore free buses and train to/from airport), many nearby restaurants,10 min to Lac Leman, on a quiet street in central Geneva.

Cons:

Reasonable rates in winter/early Spring. Go then.

Good but disappointing
Pros:

The hotel is close to the station and the rooms are a comfortable size.

Cons:

The bathroom. There was mould in the corner, the toilet flush button was on the edge of breaking and the shower is not comfortable to use. It's a bath/shower and the shower head is barely long enough to fit in the wall holder. My poor brother had to crouch to shower. Not ideal.
