Pros

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.”
