Hotel Central

“Budget hotel with very comfortable beds, hot showers, 6-8 minute walk from Old Town friendly and helpful staff.”

I enjoyed this hotel’s location 6-8 minutes walk to Old Town Geneva. The bed was very comfortable. The rooms are basic but they have everything you need. Elevators and showers are small.

I enjoyed this hotel’s location 6-8 minutes walk to Old Town Geneva. The bed was very comfortable. The rooms are basic but they have everything you need. Elevators and showers are small. Everything worked well most important. The water was very hot. I slept with my balcony windows open to feel the fresh breeze in September which was refreshing. The staff was very friendly and helpful with anything you need. The gentleman who checked me in told me about the Red Cross Museum very close to the United Nations. Initially, I didn’t plan to go to the museum but I’m glad that I did. I also visited Old Town at night and during the daytime. Thank you very much for everything!

“5 stars for location, 3 for comfort”

Hotel is in a great location, one street back from one of the main shopping streets. The hotel is on the 6th floor of an office building so you have to press and scroll on the door display to contact hotel reception to let you in. Our room was on the 5th floor.

Hotel is in a great location, one street back from one of the main shopping streets. The hotel is on the 6th floor of an office building so you have to press and scroll on the door display to contact hotel reception to let you in. Our room was on the 5th floor. We had a budget room with bunkbeds and a shared toilet which was £100 per night, but that’s Geneva prices for you! There was a tiny balcony. No kettle, fridge or safe. Room was very small – there was a half sized sink and a shower which quickly got blocked so you were standing in ankle water whilst showering. Toilet was down the hallway. Rather lumpy mattresses. Convenience to everything in Geneva was great though.

“A hotel in the historic part of town”

We had Apartment Nine for my husband and I and our adult son. The apartment was large with 2 bedrooms, a living area, a small kitchen and dining area, and one full bathroom. It was very clean and the beds were comfortable. They provided ear plugs in case it gets noisy, but I never needed to use the… more

We had Apartment Nine for my husband and I and our adult son. The apartment was large with 2 bedrooms, a living area, a small kitchen and dining area, and one full bathroom. It was very clean and the beds were comfortable. They provided ear plugs in case it gets noisy, but I never needed to use them. I am a light sleeper but did not find the location noisy at all. It was a nice location-15 min walk to the train station, but not in the mess and chaos of the train area. The office staff was very accommodating when I messed up my reservation and they helped me out. The only recommendation I would make is to have the hair dryer in the unit. They had one at the office I could use but on weekdays the office doesn't open until 10am and we were gone for the day by then.

“Great value for Geneva, but not worth it anywhere else.”

Pros * Staff are super friendly * Free transport card * Convenient location * Early luggage storage * Fast WiFi * 2 bathrooms * Quick replies Cons * Walls are not soundproof. You can hear the kids running outside the corridor and construction work outside. Can even hear other guests shower… more

Pros * Staff are super friendly * Free transport card * Convenient location * Early luggage storage * Fast WiFi * 2 bathrooms * Quick replies Cons * Walls are not soundproof. You can hear the kids running outside the corridor and construction work outside. Can even hear other guests showering and using the toilet. * Bunk beds are rickety and unstable. * Broken hairdryer. * Flat screen TV is tiny and is attached very high up to the wall. Only someone on the top bunk bed can watch it. * Very limited channels. * Air conditioning doesn’t work properly * No space in shower for any toiletries * Building is old and dated * Tiny elevator * No do not disturb sign * Flimsy chairs that disconnected when lifted * Luggage storage was a cluttered bedroom that anyone can just walk in Overall = Great value for Geneva but elsewhere, it would not be worth CHF 819 for 3 nights.
