Hotel Astoria - A Central Geneva Hotel with English Pub and Business Amenities

Located opposite Cornavin railway station, this 3-star Geneva hotel houses 63 air-conditioned rooms with views of Basilica Notre Dame or Square Chantepoulet. The accommodations feature flat-screen satellite TVs, minibars, laptop-friendly workspaces, and private bathrooms with free toiletries. The Britannia Pub, one of Geneva's first English-style pubs, connects directly to Hotel Astoria's lobby and serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner with live sports and musical events. Guests access complimentary Wi-Fi throughout the property and a computer terminal in the lobby. The 24-hour front desk provides concierge services, while laundry and dry cleaning are available upon request. A varied buffet breakfast is served from 07:00 to 10:30. The property sits 6 minutes by train from Geneva Cointrin International Airport, with the lake and old town within a 5-7 minute walk.

Pros

Direct access to public transport lines and main railway station

Walking distance to over 40 museums and art galleries

Historical English pub with live entertainment and sports screening

Easy access to UN offices, WTO, WHO, and international organizations

Cons

Some rooms face busy Square Chantepoulet

Tea/coffee facilities available only upon request

“In my opinion, this hotel's prime advantage is its location directly across from the main train station, making it incredibly convenient for exploring Geneva and nearby attractions. The inclusion of in-room amenities such as a mini-fridge and kettle, along with the on-site Britannia Pub, enhance its appeal, especially considering its affordability. While the building shows some age, the overall cleanliness, helpful staff, and excellent breakfast make it a solid choice.”
