Hotels near Geneva International Airport - GVA, Geneva

I wasn't expecting much so my hopes weren't high. But truth is it could be way better, with a little investment they could renew this place and make much better. When we arrived to do the check in the staff seemed a bit lost since they were doing a few things at the same time. After we managed to have the keys we went to the room and it is an average room, nothing special. They say the room has a mountain view.....they wish.....please see photos. As a couple we would like to have a king size bed, instead we got two separate single beds. Ask for a king size anyway if you can. The breakfast is expensive, only worth it because of the view, we didn't had breakfast after we were told the price, but don't worry if you leave the hotel and turn right you will find a small bakery with a really nice lady and a cheaper and tasty breakfast. From the hotel to the train station takes you around 5 minutes walking and the hotel will provide you with a transportation card so you don't pay for the train to visit geneve.

It a sham that public transport does not cover the place. However, the shuttle service is great and compensate for the shortfalls. the hotel is neighboring a supper market which is a great for shopping.

Very nice location, very quiet. Fresh air. But after 20:00 almost everything is closed(stores, food stores, etc). If you do not have a car, you have nothing to do. Only stay in the hotel. Also, bus O is not frequent, and the last one is at 22:05.

A trip to Geneva wouldn't be complete without stopping by one of the chocolate shops! I would STRONGLY recommend visiting La Chocolaterie de Geneve. The guy was so friendly and helpful he let us try free samples of chocolate and he gave some great recommendations on which was the best chocolate bars to buy. All very reasonably priced too. A restaurant i would say you should definitely go to is Au Petit Chalet. It offers a wide variety of dishes from Swiss to Italian food. The service was excellent and they speak very good English. If you're looking for a spot to go swimming in the lake then i would definitely recommend going to the Bains des Paquis. It's family-friendly, It only costs a couple of Euros per person to enter and there is no limit to how long you can stay for. There are two large platforms you can swim out to to chill on or dive off. There is free entry in the evening and its a great place to go to at night to see the skyline and the water fountain. Tap water in Geneva is clean and drinkable they have water fountains all over the city that you can top up your water bottles for free. Overall Geneva is a beautiful, safe and modern city full of culture and history with fantastic food and drink!

Looks much better inside than on the outside thankfully. Loved our room-darkening shade! Breakfast was worth $10 each. Shuttle was NOT available either day we were there and that costs us a lot extra. I booked it solely because they claim they have an airport shuttle. I inquired about it 3 weeks before our visit and was told to check back at the beginning of the month. I did check back then and was told it was not available. Hotel is in France, so if you fly into Geneva you have to pay extra for the driver to cross the border, which is literally no more than going through a checkpoint where they don't even have to stop. Could have used the extra money to just stay in Switzerland instead.

-Clean but small room -no cheese in breakfast or any salty items only sweet food - no buses from the station on sundays -taxis are really expensive -no buses from ferne voltaire station to the property after 10:45pm No resturants in the hotel or around the hotel but very near to Geneva airport
