"Nothing"
"The location was perfect for me as a train traveler, the rooms are large and clean, and breakfast was very good."
"Aucun."
"Location is great, right next to the train station, which is useful if you are traveling with your luggage on the train or coming from the airport. The area is lively with many restaurants and cafes. From the hotel, it is an easy walk to the city center. Staff are friendly and helpful. The room is spacious and comfortable. Breakfast has a nice variety of breads and egg options."
"Nothing everything is great."
"What a terrific place to stay and the staff were extremely welcoming and let us into the room early given we had arrived quite early in the morning after a 22 hour flight. Super helpful about everything"
"It was a little expensive for the standard hotel it is, but I guess we’re in Geneva so whatever"
"The room was excellent and spacious overlooking the Notre Dame Basilica. Despite the main tramway station right outside the hotel door, you do not hear anything inside. Then, the main city train station is in the hotel 's space. Taking the glass elevator to your room gets you to see the trains arriving and leaving all day long. Breakfast room on the 8th floor has a nice panaromic city view and tables setup is very well done. Service at the reception was more than great by all staff members no matter what the time of the day was."
"There is nothing I can think of. No wonder professor Calculus (from Tintin) always stayed at this hotel :-)"
