This hotel is located very well, only 500 metres from the railwaystation Cornavin in the centre of Geneva. The railwaystation is only 7 minutes by train from the airport. In the airport you get a free ticket to go by train to the centre. In the hotel you get a passport for free use of public transport in Geneva. Breakfast... More

Very convenient to the trains, Lake, and old Geneva. Wifi is ok, but not great. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. More

The Hotel Lido is close to the main railway station and is cheap for Geneva (but cheap in Geneva means expensive anywhere else!) The room was well sized, there were plenty of towels, and the beds were OK. The double glazing does a good job of blocking out the very loud traffic noise. Ummm, that's about it for the "positives".... More

Hotel Lido is located at the center of Geneva, very close to the Gare Cornavin and to many restaurants, pubs and souvenir shops. This is the only real good thing about the hotel. I stayed at room 56 during a weekend (February 26 and 27) and wasn't happy with it because: 1) wi-fi internet connection in room 56 (which is... More

I liked the hotel. Given the price of alternatives, it seemed to be quite a bargain. It is right near the train station, amongst several buildings that also host what qualifies as budget hotels in Geneva. Some might find the street below too busy and noisy, but I slept well. The room was relatively nicely appointed in contemporary business traveler... More

Very clean, basic hotel in very central location a few hundred yards from rail station, and very convenient for lakeside area. Staff friendly and helpful. Rooms are not airconditioned and hotel is on busy city centre street, so traffic noise can be an issue if you have to have windows open More

Nice hotel located in the city center near the train station, affordable rates for geneva, we had a nice, big and renovated room. Everything perfect once in the rooms, just the hotel entrance is dark and not really convenient. Nice and very helpful staff. More

The hotel itself complies with the basic features but nothing else. I stayed there for 3 nights and I was not able to sleep well as the mattress and pillows were uncomfortable. The breakfast was not included and not internet at all (not even paid). I find extremely absurd than in a city like Geneva with lots of business and... More

We were booked on a return flight from Geneva to London Heathrow, but due to snow our flight was cancelled and we were put in the hotel Lido for one night. The reception room was fairly clean but a bit dark, and hadn't been decorated in about 40 years or so. The Room was very basic, and felt very unclean.The... More

Note: I am not a backpacker and have never been one to skimp on accomodations. My husband and I decided to take an impromptu detour to Geneva while on our Honeymoon in France. We stumbled upon this "hotel" when looking for last min. accomodations. I figured that for the price of $140 Swiss Francs this would at least be the... More
