    free transport pass
    early reception closure

    The hotel provided a transport pass for free travel across Geneva, making it very convenient for getting around, including a nice ride from the airport.

    The reception area closes early in the evening, which can be inconvenient for late arrivals. I felt a bit lost without staff assistance when I first arrived.

    great location
    clean rooms
    fast internet
    tiny bathroom
    inferior bedding

    Stayed for two nights in a Double Room. The location stands out, right by the river and close to the train station. Easy to walk into the downtown area. The river view from my small window was refreshing, a nice touch when I opened it to let in some air. The room was generally clean, with a fast internet connection that made planning my days easier. A kettle for tea and coffee was provided, which I really appreciated. Check-in was a breeze with the codes given. However, the bathroom was very tiny, making it tricky to take a proper shower without holding the head. The bedding also left a lot to be desired. the coverlet felt inferior and didn’t match the quality of the rest of the room. Another downside was the absence of breakfast at the hotel, but there are plenty of options nearby. All in all, a decent experience, but some minor tweaks could enhance comfort greatly.

    convenient location
    helpful staff
    transport passes
    cramped bathroom
    limited toiletries

    I had a delightful stay at Hotel Des Tourelles. The location is absolutely perfect for exploring Geneva's old town and the lake, just a short stroll away. The staff were exceptionally helpful, quickly arranging transport passes for my travels around the city.

    Bathroom was a bit cramped.

    tiny bathroom

    Great views over the river | Spacious rooms

    The bathroom is way too tiny to be comfortable. it’s almost claustrophobic. Limited power points make charging devices a hassle, especially with just two outlets available. The noise from the street and thin walls disrupt sleep, as you'll hear everything from loud neighbors to slamming doors.

    ideal location
    free transport pass
    amazing balcony view
    limited family amenities

    We loved the hotel's ideal location near the river, making it easy for our family to stroll to areas like the old town. The free transport pass was a nice touch—perfect for our explorations in cold weather. The room's balcony and view were amazing!

    My children wished for more amenities for families.

    breathtaking view
    accommodating staff
    tiny bathroom
    limited toiletries
    no breakfast options

    The stunning views from the window were a highlight, especially with the river just outside. Check-in was efficient, and the accommodating staff even changed my room at my request. However, the bathroom was surprisingly cramped, which made showering challenging, and there were limited toiletries provided, with no breakfast options available on-site. Despite these minor inconveniences, the experience was overall quite pleasant.

    stunning views
    limited milk supply

    I had an amazing stay! The church bells outside were such a unique touch, and my corner room offered stunning views. Just wish there was more milk for my tea.

    cozy amenities

    It was just a proper fit for a short-term stay in Geneva with fantastic value for money. I appreciated the small fridge and kettle in my room, which made for easy tea breaks. Bring your own toiletries if you're picky about what you use.

    would like to stay there on the next trip

    The room had a fridge, electric kettle, and safe, making it super convenient. It also included cable channels, a hairdryer, and wireless internet. The bathroom was private, with body soap and shampoo provided, along with towels. The upper floors were accessible by elevator, which was great. Spacious room with nice amenities for a cozy stay.
