Ruby Claire Hotel Geneva by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Feels like a new hotel. Our stay was perfect."

Hotel D Geneva

8/10 Good

"Hotel was lovely and functional, and staff was great. Location was highly convenient to train station - but, given that it was near the train station, was a bit of a strange area. Was with friends but might not have felt great about being there alone at night. Stayed in downtown Geneva at the beginning of my trip and enjoyed it much more. Chose this hotel for proximity to train station and it absolutely served that purpose, and property itself was flawless, but you do wind up with some interesting locales when you’re near train stations in general so it’s always a compromise!"

Hotel De Geneve

10/10 Excellent

"I loved my 3-day stay. The room was functional and efficient -- with an appropriate amount of Swiss charm. It wasn’t luxurious or high-end, which was fine because I hadn’t paid for that. It was a good value. The location is convenient to the train station. This does mean that it is on a main street with a lot of truck traffic that continues into the night, so my room was noisy. (This may not affect all rooms.) The staff was beyond helpful and always greeted me with a smile. I would stay here again."
