The best accommodations Switzerland

the hotel doesn't look like much, but offers relatively "cheap" rooms by Geneva standards. Above all, check the rates on the website, which vary according to season, room size, etc., and may be greatly overestimated. An emergency hotel for small budgets. Reception is located... on the fifth floor. Single or up to 5 people, budget version with bunk beds or apartment with kitchnette. Note that hotels near the station offer better value for money, just a 15-minute walk from the center.

Close to the train station, the lake (there are a few rooms with a view) and a few minutes from the Nations district. The Drake-Longchamp Hotel offers fairly spacious rooms with contemporary and elegant decor. Simple and efficient for the location. What is appreciable is the functionality of the room, with in all of them, a small kitchen for total autonomy, a bathroom with hairdryer, cable TV, a sitting area, mini-bar, safe and the indispensable wifi. An address that combines the 3 C's, convivial, comfortable, conveniences!

The Manotel group offers places to stay that are always elegant and refined. Le Royal is one of them that mixes tradition and modernity.

Excellent value for money for this unpretentious hotel, in front of the train station. Don't be fooled by its name, staying at the Hotel Suisse does not mean that you will be accommodated in a typically Swiss setting! Bright, comfortable, air-conditioned, soundproofed rooms, cable TV... The decoration is rather sober in the rooms where we privilege the practical aspect with a desk. A hotel with a sense of welcome and service. Not to be missed: the old stairwell transformed into a telephone booth. Reservation recommended.

Two turrets on the façade characterise this charming hotel, which is housed in a 19th century building on the banks of the Rhône, a 5-minute walk from the train station and the centre.

The rooms are spacious with an antique cachet: parquet flooring, mouldings on the ceiling, balcony or small lounge in the turrets. They are comfortable and well-equipped, overlooking the Rhône. Book a room upstairs rather than at street level, which can be noisy during the week.
