Room type: Deluxe Room

Setting: The hotel is located in downtown Geneva and faces the river. It has been fully renovated in 2013. The location is very convenient (Geneva is compact, but the traffic is terrible), but you will not have a lake view. Public areas are nice, but I didn’t find them particularly memorable – sort of international luxury hotel style, could be anywhere.

Room: I had a Deluxe Room facing the river. Everything new, all the usual amenities present. Contemporary design. The patterned wallpaper was not to my liking – it clashed with pattern of the carpet, and gave the room a busy feel.

Food: Breakfast was fine – high-quality choices. At the same time, the breakfast room was not particularly impressive – relatively low ceilings, and the terrace at street level didn’t feel particularly luxurious.
We also had lunch at the Indian restaurant Rasoj by Vineet. This was a perfect experience from start to finish – highly recommended. Good balance between contemporary and more traditional Indian dishes, plush setting, very attentive service.

Service: Fine. My room was not ready on arrival although this was after official check-in time, but in this specific instance, it was not an issue for me.

Overall: Not sure I would return. There was nothing wrong with the hotel or the service. On the other hand, there was nothing impressive either, and given the vast choice of hotels in Geneva all located very close to each other, I would likely try another one (e.g., FS) first.
