Get cooking in apartment-style hotel across from Jardin Anglais

Travelers wanting some extra space to stretch out as well as a kitchen will appreciate these apartment-style rooms. The eight-story hotel stands on busy Rue Versonnex across from Jardin Anglais and three minutes from Geneva icon Jet d'Eau. Breakfast service is available, but many guests opt to cook for themselves or explore restaurants and shops along Geneva's main shopping street around the corner. 

Highlights
  • Apartment-style accommodations ranging from studio to two-bedroom
  • Across from Jardin Anglais and Jet d'Eau
  • Near Geneva's main shopping street
Rooms

The 51 nicely sized rooms all include a full kitchen, living room, and high-speed Internet (fees apply, some have Wi-Fi). Studios range from 215 to 344 square feet and are equipped with Murphy beds. One- and two-bedroom apartments measure between 484 and 968 square feet and feature a white-and-gold color palette. All come with air conditioning, iron/ironing board, safe, cable/satellite television, telephone, and hairdryer. Some rooms on top floors of the eight-story tower enjoy partial views of Lake Geneva.

don't stay there

For Geneva, Switzerland, this hotel is a shame. Location is great, staff really nice; but the rest, the facility itself is a mess. I won't stay there again.

Expensive in all restaurants and bars. Look for smaller huts or tents or even burger vans to eat. Even these will set you back a bit. Alcohol also very expensive.

Very outdated Hotel

This hotel needs big improvement. Rooms are outdated so are the furniture’s. The price they charge for this room you can spend little extra and get better hotel. Avoid this hotel.

My husband and I were very satisfied with this hotel. It was very cheap comparing to other hotels in the city and location is great. Small kitchen in the room allows you to cook and it's fully equipped.

Place to feel at home in center of Geneva

With equipped kitchen, situated right next to the lake of Geneva, well connected by public transport it is a good place for compfortable long stay in heart of Geneva. * 24 hours laundry operational in basement (no extra charges) * Ironing included in room * Gas cooktop and microwave equipped kitchen is certainly suited for longer stays Lake of geneva, nightclubs, bus and tram stands all situated within walking distance of a block or two max

Very nicely located in heart of Geneva with comfortabel features

50 meters fron Jet-de-Eau (Fountain in Geneva lake) hotel is located in center of city. With kitchenette fully equipped, provision of ironing within the apartment and laundry with drier accesible round the clock (At no extra cost) - all basic amneties for a compfortable stay longer than week are well maintained. PERFECT value for money. Reception closing at 11 pm and room cleaning not regular daily it might not suit those looking for stat hotels and regular services for a day or two.
