Ideal for station which is 5min walk,around a 15 min walk to lake Geneva so perfect for our stay.
Room like many across Europe, but had everything that was needed including a very comfy bed.
Breakfast had plenty of choice to set you up for the day.
Plenty of dining options in the surrounding streets.
