Room was a good size and bed was comfortable. Hotel is in a great location, across the road from Geneva main train station and an easy stroll to the lake.

Ruby Claire Hotel Geneva
Nice hotel in the centre, easy to find shops, restaurants etc. around. Lovely bells in the arcade BUT it is not so easy to find the hotel. I liked the "upside-down" concept of having the reception at the top level
