We absolutely loved our 6 nights in this apartment. Very comfortable and stylish. Public transport is very close and convenient but also an easy walk into old town and the lake. The closest coop is less than 10 minutes walk and a very good option for anything you need.

The flat was in a great location, easy transportation to bus and tram. It was clean and quiet. Lots of sunlight in the flat, with windows on two sides. Great balcony. We stayed for 6 nights and it would have been good to have a few extra towels. The clothes washing machine is in the cave of the apartment block and requres tokens for the electricity. Drying is on a clothes line. Communication with the host was excellent. My wife and I would use again upon availability.

The location was great. Close to a grocery store and very walkable to the city center and the lake. We appreciated the kitchen and we were able to cook several meals there. We would stay here again if we come back to Geneva.

Super cute studio near a main street and one of the major Geneva train stations, but set back so it’s very quiet. The host is super nice and responded to all questions promptly. The apartment was clean and secure. We loved it here!

In Geneva to meet our first grandchild

The Orion was very comfortable, clean, quiet and well appointed. It is also very well located in regard to bus and train stops, allowing for us to get to our daughter’s apartment (and many other places) quickly and conveniently. We enjoyed having it as a place to retreat to at the end of the day and have a leisurely morning routine. Mage bakery and Coop grocery store gave us great options for eating “at home!”

Loved the location

This accommodation was everything we wanted and needed. The location was perfect for us. Bus transportation was just steps away. With windows on two sides we enjoyed Geneva’s fresh air both day and night. The location is incredibly quiet. There is no problem sleeping with windows open. We may very well return to Geneva in the future and would likely stay here again if Helena will have us.

Lovely apartment in great location

We were visiting Geneva to help our daughter and son-in-law with their newborn. (Their apartment was a 5 minute walk so the location was ideal.) Location also ideal because it close to Eaux-Vives shopping and restaurants and the local public transportation. The apartment is very spacious and bright and has everything you could need. Several nights during our stay we prepared dinner for 4 adults and we had plenty of room. Neighborhood very quiet. Helena is a great host.

Helena Was Very Helpful

We arrived from the USA early in the morning. Our check-in time was 1600 but since there was no one staying in the apartment before us Helena allowed my wife & I to check-in earlier. We appreciated this very much.

A haven of calm in a beautiful city

The apartment is a 15 min walk or 5 min bus ride to the lake, bus stops virtually outside the apartment. Number 25 The apartment is very clean and beautifully decorated. It’s extremely comfortable with a balcony to sit on for meals or drinks which overlooks glorious trees. Helena our host could not have been more helpful. Very responsive to communication. There is a shop opposite which seems to be open 24 hours and a fantastic restaurant called Coco - expensive compared to the UK but the food was top notch. We loved Geneva, we loved the apartment.

Spacious studio in Champel

In terms of size and general comfort, this is an impressive studio apartment. The apartment is generally well equipped and with a compact but functional kitchen; is set well back from Route De Malagnou and therefore quiet; and has a lovely balcony. The public transport links are excellent and the apartment is within easy walking distance from major supermarkets. The apartment did get a bit warm during the recent spell of hot weather in Geneva, so a fan would have been a nice (and cheap) inclusion. That said, the only significant demerit of the apartment is that the washing machine listed in the inclusions is not in fact in the apartment. Rather, there is a laundry room in the building and to use the washing machine you need to get in touch with the (very nice) concierge every time you want to use it. Notably, there is, what for us, was a totally redundant bidet in the bathroom. Were this to be replaced with a washing machine, I would then consider the apartment to be outstanding.

No fan of this host

Geneva hit 90 degrees each of the five early September days we visited. The afternoon my husband and I arrived, the apartment was unbearably hot. Of course, there was no air-conditioning, but we expected at least a fan, so we wrote immediately about the need for one. The host's responses to our repeated requests were ridiculous: it was cool last week; just open the windows; maybe the concierge can find you an old one and bring it to you (he never did); buy your own fan; fans don't help anyway. Blinds down and windows open, we suffered through three hot sweaty nights filled with the noise of traffic, ambulances, dogs, etc. Host finally brought a fan by on day 4 after she returned from her holiday abroad. With it, the last two nights were comfortable enough to sleep. It would have been so easy to make our entire stay more enjoyable. We requested recompense, but did not get it. Her excuse was that there was no way she could have known it was going to be hot. This is unacceptable since Geneva had already had record summer heat, and, in previous reviews, guests had suggested the need for the fan we had to beg for.

Couldn't have a better or more pleasant location: it's on several bus routes and the new Léman Express train stops at nearby Eaux Vives or Champel. There are two pretty parks nearby and you are only a ten minute walk from the wonderful Ol Town. But nowhere there is far away. The apartment is bright and comfortable and Helena is an attentive hostess; highly recommended.

Helena's apartment was a great choice for our visit to Geneva - convenient to places we cared about, quiet, clean and functional. The communications between us prior to the visit were excellent so there were no surprises; this also led to an efficient check-in after a long day of travel. We are walkers so we did not mind the walk "down the hill" and the number 25 bus worked well for us in the rain. There are two small grocery stores within two blocks of the apartment - the selection there is liminted but the hours are great (closet store is open until 0200). Larger food stores and farmers markets are also within walking distance. We enjoyed our visit and Helena's apartment.

Beloved home on Rte de Malagnou

This was my second stay at this central, serene home in Geneva. The home is between two of the best neighborhoods in Geneva — Champel and Eaux-Vives. The window light is stunning, the chance to have coffee on the balcony is unbelievably peaceful, and access to any part of central Geneva is easy by foot or by bus. I dearly love this place and am sad to say goodbye, but I would love to stay again soon and would highly encourage anyone coming to Geneva to stay here.
