Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Detailed Reviews
The hotel very comfortable. Nice location its literately across Geneva cornavin Train station and surrounding by so many stores, restaurants and take aways and groceries. So everything you need will be close by. Checking in really smooth And the staff is AMAZING. I got room with balcony with direct view of GVAtrain station, and even tho its pretty busy area , the room seems sound proof so its sound from outside not loud and we not even hear or notice it if we dont open the balcony door. We order with breakfast but my bf cant do breakfast in restaurants due to the NEW SWITZERLAND covid 2G regulation. So the staff bring thebreakfast to our room. They are very accommodating asking which breakfast we wanted and the breakfast itself is really good. O - I wish there will be more coffee capsule at the room since we just have 2.

We stayed here for one night before we left Geneva travelling. It’s located very close to the train station - directly opposite, which made it an ideal location for what we needed. There was no noise from the railway, and the area itself, close to the main railway station, is safe, unlike in many cities. There was no noise from anywhere inside the hotel either in our 5th floor room overlooking the train station out front. It is a 10 minute walk to the shores of Lake Geneva. The room was small, but clean, modern, with a nespresso machine and a very large flat screen TV. There were a lot more international TV channels than you normally get. Breakfast was not free, it was 18 CHF pp so we took breakfast at a nearby bakery.
All things considered, it was what we needed at a good price, so no complaints.

Room Tip: As the road outside can be quite busy, I’d suggest the higher the floor the better.

A lot to digest? Read an AI-generated summary of recent traveller reviews.
This hotel has been recently renewed and has been owned by 4 generations of the same family. The rooms were functional but cosy, quite clean but somehow dusty at the floor level (corners)
Breakfast was correct but lacking variation. The windows were good and if closed one doesn’t here the traffic, nevertheless the air condition isnt good enough. Bathrooms and bedroom small
But nice, one feels at home there, really.
The best is the staff , receptionists, cleaners, kitchen and breakfast, all kind and polite 👏👏👏

We stayed there for 4 days and the location was perfect for the activities we had planned. It is opposite the main train station which has a mini mall with stores catering to your every need. There is a store named Migros which is basically a supermarket including a food section. That was the best thing. Unfortunately, we didn't discover it until our 3rd day because you can get a very good breakfast there at a decent price instead of paying CHF 15 each day for breakfast at the hotel. The hotel's breakfast was very basic.
The room was described as having a mini bar/fridge but we found a cupboard type item that was definitely not a fridge. The TV was placed at an odd angle over one of the beds and you had to maneuver around it to avoid colliding with it.
The other thing of note is that if you stay in the summer time be prepared to deal with the heat. The staff provided guidance on how to adjust the room temperature but I don't think the room has a/c at all. It was very uncomfortable to sleep and on the last night of our stay we eventually resorted to opening the windows but that did not provide any relief. Perhaps if we had opened the patio door that may have helped.

Good location and clean rooms. The air conditioning did not work in either of our two rooms (and when raised with concierge, we were told that they would "raise it with management" and nothing else happened after that) so we had to leave our windows open which was extremely extremely loud given the location. No iron in the room and no hooks for hanging towels in the bathroom. No doorbells so difficult to hear when someone is knocking. Very hard beds and very soft pillows - we woke up with aches and pains in the morning. Half of the English TV channels did not work. We booked rooms with balconies and were not given rooms with balconies.

We stayed at Hotel Bernina in July (after arriving late due to flight delays) and the staff were very helpful. The room is good with a small fridge, air conditioning/heating controls and a nice (opening) window. The breakfast room on the 1st floor provides a variety of food (including health-conscious options) The location is exceptional - Geneva station is across the road, the old city is a 10 minute walk, the tour bus stop is a 4 minute walk and the lake is a 5 minute walk. There are many shops and different types of restaurants nearby. I sincerely recommend the Hotel Bernina to travellers.

The hotel's location is very convenient to travel to/from the airport. Upon the arrival, the staff tried to accommodate any inquiry and were very professional. The hotel provided a tram pass and did not charge for printing documents. The room was small but renovated and clean. Especially the wooden floor felt crisp to walk on bare feet. It was a comfortable stay, and I would stay again when I visit Geneva next time.

We stayed in Hotel Bernina for one night, the room was nice and quiet - and all the hotel amenities were impeccable. The team at the reception was very welcoming and genuinely friendly. The hotel location is strategic and within a few minutes of walking along the lake you are within reach of historic landmarks of the city and all the shops and boutiques. We will be back!

Very strange situation at checkout. 2 persons (1 adult and 1 baby 2 years old) had once breakfast and the price was mentioned 16 CHF, even if baby has to pay also 16 CHF, it’s 32, but we had to pay 50 CHF. Staff at reception is supportive, but the provided room was in the corner and it was very difficult to enter with a stroller. Impossible to open the window and due to that - very stuffy in the room

I stayed at this hotel in 2018 and it was already good but after the renovation it is simply the best option I I can see. The location is simply perfect in front of the main train station Cornavin. Walking distance from restaurants, supermarket, shops and tourist attractions. The Staff is incredibly nice with special remark for Lucqas at the front desk, who is really an asset for the professional treatment to every individual guest. The rooms are nice and neat. All expectable amenities from a 5 star hotel were included in the room despite it was the lowest fare for the hotel. I simply cannot think of a better option to stay in Geneva for business or pleasure.
