“Comfortable for city tourism”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Stayed 2 nights for city tourism. Great location! Very affordable for Geneva prices. Rooms are not very big, but comfortable for city tourism. WC renovated, with bathtub. LCD TV with several international channels. Nice breakfast. They give a free pass card for public transport. Dislike: no power outlets for charging phone/laptop; to had to use the one in the bathroom. Overall rating: Above average.

“Convenient for public transport”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 January 2012

Stayed 4 nights and was bit disappointed with facilities - had to ask for tea&coffee and got old plastic kettle, couple of normal teabags & some vile herbal ones. No coffee & no milk. Minibar in room so could use as minifridge. Room overlooked square on 5th floor so not noisy. Breakfast fine. Corridors dingy. Good value considering prices everywhere else. Staff lent us adaptorplug when ours wouldn't work. Beware UK visitors - not same plug as in France etc!

Stayed January 2012, travelled with friends

“Not as bad as it may sound”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 November 2011

Depends what the purpose of your travel is. Certainly not a hotel for a family holiday but if you have a few days in Geneva and are traveling alone, this place is decent enough. A small, centrally located overnight hotel is what Astoria is - as others in the same block. Not a place you want to spend more than a couple of nights in, unless you're really only looking for a bed after a long day's work (even then though you may long for some more breakfast variety). What you should not expect: Large rooms and being paid too much attention. Request a room with a window into the block (as opposite to Cornavin square)!

Room Tip: You don't want a room facing the Cornavin square

“ask for renovated room”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 November 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We just returned from Geneva, where we stayed 3 nights at this hotel. We checked in and were given the key to a room which faced the noisy street, so we went to the front desk again asking for a room facing the back. We received a key to a tiny room with one smallish double bed, maybe big enough for 1 person but certainly for 2 people. So trip down again to frongt desk, all of a sudden the clerk remembered he had a double room renovated on the 6th floor. This was actually a perfectly nice room, big and renovated. It faced the front, but was fine, not noisy, bathroom quite big. So I guess you have to ask for 6th floor one of a renovated room. Renovation is under way right now, so maybe the whole place will improve.

Room Tip: get room 605

“good location and average standard”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 November 2011

the location is close to the railway station and walking distance o the centre. For Genevan hotel the price was ok. The staff was not very friendly and a bit cool.
