Pros:

Location

Cons:

We have to take stairs to reach our room on 6th floor. With luggage it was an inconvenience. We have to lift the bathroom door to open. We stayed only for 2 nites so we did not bother complaining.

Sjenerende lyd fra ventilasjonsanlegget

Einfaches, gutes, zentral gelegenes Hotel mitten in Genf
Pros:

Nach der Renovation ist das Hotel Rouseau nun ein echter Geheimtipp mitten in Genf. Perfekte Lage, 5' zu Fuss vom Bahnhof. Die Zimmer sind nun einfach, aber schön ausgestattet, sehr gute Betten.

Cons:

Kein Nachteil, aber gut zu wissen: Das Hotel Rousseau liegt an einer grösseren Strasse, die auch nachts recht laut werden kann - kein Problem mit geschlossenen Fenstern - der Preis für die sehr zentrale Lage.
Ich kann die Grösse der Standardzimmer nicht beurteilen, wir waren sehr lucky und erhielten ein double superior-Zimmer: Sehr schön, ganz oben und innen gelegen :-)
