This air-conditioned homestay has 1 bathroom with a bath and a hair dryer.

St. Pierre Cathedral is 2.7 km from the homestay, while United Nations Geneva is 5 km away. Geneva International Airport is 8 km from the property.

Quiet, clean, modern and well kept. Felt like having a home in Geneva as this was part of a residence, rather than a busy hotel. Tram stop just literally no more than 50 m away with very regular trams right into the centre. The residence is really quiet and is part of a gated community so it is safe and, not being in the midst of things, peaceful. You can smell the green as you're not in a trafficky part of town. Friendly host and very responsive to messages.

    Property is accessible by public transport and is in a nice quiet area which is soothing. Very spacious rooms, good wifi connectivity and a lovely host to help you. A lot of information is already provided as we check in which can be used to go around Geneva with ease. Would go back if the property is available on my future trips.

    Geneva Switzerland is not a cheap place. This hotel is centrally located, offers a very inexpensive nice continental breakfast, has nice rooms and all was ok. Just two doors away is a very nice café that had good beer and very cool scene of sophisticated french-speaking locals.
