    Hotel D Geneva is a nice boutique hotel that looks very nice in pictures as well as in real. You will be amazed how they manage to integrate all the fancy interior design elements and concepts in a renovated tiny building. This is something I sincerely admired. The use of fancy black marble rocks on walls, golden pattern separators and fancy rooms' signages and matts is spectacular. You'll immediately feel like you're in a 5-star hotel.
