I need to visit Geneva occasionally for business and it's quite difficult to find a hotel that doesn't cost a fortune in the city center. I was hesitant about staying at the Hotel Admiral because of some of the other reviews, but was pleasantly surprised. I chose the hotel because of the decent room rates as well as to its... More

Decent budget hotel. Clean, relatively updated furniture. Fantastic breakfast buffet. Nice staff. Neighborhood looks fine but there are unsavory characters around. not a problem if you don't go looking for trouble. central location compensates. More

I have stayed in this hotel a few times now. It is small but has most things you need for a short visit. The rooms are as well appointed as most bigger chains and the breakfast is fine. It is very good value by local stanards, presumably due to its location on the edge of the red-light district. It is... More

We found this strictly non smoking hotel through the internet and decided to book, after reading the reviews of others, and , boy, were we deighted with our decision! We had contacted the hotel to request a high floor rear facing quiet room, and on arrival, at about 12:00,after completing express check in online,we were informed check-in was at 15:00,... More

This hotel was hard to find and in a seedy neighborhood. Street looked like a dark dirty ally. I did not stay, asked for a refund. They would not refund my money. Would not recommend this hotel ever. More

Dear Guest (even if you didn’t stay at our hotel) Your review should have been written this way “I booked a room, I changed my mind, I didn’t respect the policy that I previously accepted, so I decided to pretend a non professionalism because they didn’t refund me” As you know: 1- You booked your room on the 20th of...

The hotel is very basic, but very central. Breakfast is excellent, and vastly better than the usual Swiss 3 star offering. Decor needs refreshing, but an OK choice in overpriced Geneva. In the heart of the red light district. Prudes - go elsewhere. More

Enjoyed staying at this Hotel. The staff were friendly, the room was very clean and the breakfast was good. The only problem I had was that I was woken up by other guests - could hear everything they said and did. More

Hotel Admiral is a very well kept smaller property in Geneva, and well priced. Rooms are spotless, the breakfast is terrific (and included.) Bathrooms are small but modern and spotless. It is on the edge of the red-light district (prostitution is legal in Switzerland) but extremely safe. We stay here three to four times a year and have never had... More

6 persons from my office stayed here for 10 nights. To my surprise we had to pay a penalty for changing the dates too late. When we checked in we wanted to reduce our stay from 12 to 10 days but the hotel manager apparently have not heard the phrase "customer first". Although they sold us 60 nights in total,... More

Dear Valued guest, I highly appreciated your frankness because you did not hide the main reason of your review: you refused to apply the cancellation policy that you have previously, solemnly accepted! It is always good to remember the following facts (not to you for you know very well the story, but to the other users,) 1- you booked 5... More
