Stayed in this hotel for a work trip. Rooms are simple - comfortable bed, clean bathroom, shower is not very good as its hand held, small TV with very few channels, so not very good for those that intend to stay in their room. Breakfast is good - nice range of fruits, breads, croissants, cheese, meats and cereals. Staff were... More

The staff were friendly and very helpful when I needed converter plugs and advice on the local area. Breakfast was basic but the fresh pastries and assortment of jams,... More

I had to find a place in Geneva on the fly one night and ended up walking by Hotel des Alpes. It was extremely low priced at 150 Swiss francs. Nearby low budget hotels were going for 200 or so in comparison. (Yes, hotels in Geneva are ridiculously expensive by US standards!) I asked to see a room and the... More

This hotel is in very good location and few hundred meters from Geneva main station. There are lots of food restaurants in the vicinity of this hotel. Giant Geneva lake is... More
