GVA's Swiss lounge is pretty underwhelming, but that isn't surprising considering there are like 3 long-haul flights a day and everything else is intra-Europe. It's small (about 60 seats), and most egregiously, the bathrooms are outside, but the food is typically good and I've never been in there when it's been completely packed. GVA Airport as a whole is pretty underwhelming though, but it's really easy to transit with a short connection because of how few folks are clearing immigration there.
