The hotel is very beautiful!
All service are okay except the cafe did not allow you to have half boiled egg. They only serve whatever on the counter and the old lady server did not accept when i requested for half boiled egg. The young lady server is very good.
Despite full marks on overall service and experience, i wont coming back because of the unhappy breakfast days. The old lady server ruined my morning mood.
Management please check this review and travellers please watch out!!!
A nice clean hotel with great restaurant which made me feel like home. Closed to the airport though location is a bit difficult for me to walk to the airport, but they have nice shuttle service to take guests from/to the airport. In my mind, I praised it was the best airport hotel I was staying ever, and they deserved a great review. (that was what I felt at the beginning).
With the reasons above I had extended to stay one more night to check out on 12 May 2025 when I could easily move to the hotel in front of it for the extra day (Nash Suites airport hotel) with cheaper price. I chose to stay.
I Got Really Upset And Disappointed when a box of Chocolate in my room got lost. I have pictures attached here in the review!!! Chocolates in Switzerland are very unique, and I intentionally went to Sweetzerland (a chocolate boutique) on Saturday to purchase two boxes for my friends in the Netherlands because Sweetzerland closes on Sunday. One box cost me CHF 22. On Sunday May 11, I went out till the evening around 6pm. As soon as I got back to the room, I realized one box of my chocolates was gone but left me the white gift wrap. I immediately went down to report to the receptionist. The one I first talked to was nice. She seemed willing to help solve the problems. She referred me to talk to another receptionist, her colleague but the lady she referred wasn’t available at that time. She asked me to go talk later again.
When I did, the second receptionist said all the managers, and house keeping they needed to talk to left because it was after 6pm. I asked her to call them. She said that was impossible. So, verfication wasn’t successful. Instead, she asked me to leave my contact number in Europe and email address because I was gonna check out the next morning 4 am. She claimed by the next morning 4:30 am after they talked, they would come up with a solution and would contact me. I waited for two full days, and no call or email received. This IGNORANCE shouldn’t be done. This considers BAD SERVICE!!! This shows that you don’t care about short stay travellers. How unsafe the guests would feel??? Now, it has come to the point that I was complaining about losing one chocolate box to complaining about bad manner of the receptionist! There were 3 receptionists that evening, she was the second lady who sat down in the middle with longer face shape. It happened on May 11 evening, and my room number was 311.
Management Please check and take this action seriously!!! Don’t let the act and services of those ladies ruined your hotel’s reputation. It was supposed to be a great 5 stars hotel but it ended up as one star. It is a shame to let the reputation go down this way. Our family also ran a hotel in our home county, so I deeply take sympathy on you and want you to know!!! PLEASE Definitely Check and Verify!!! Don’t make your guests feel like you don’t care especially for those overseas guests who go and do a short stay.
It is not the value of a box of chocolate matters, it is about housekeeping lady’s behavior and the ignorance of the receptionist!!! What if I left my other stuffs unlocked in the luggage on that evening?!? She probably would take something important on that luggage too.
Please You Should Check with the housekeeper and the receptionist on that day!!!!!!
Hôtel impeccable, nous avons été très bien accueilli ce fut top !
Le personnel est très avenant et répond à nos questions.
Il est également très bien situé n, des arrêts de bus proche (face à l'hôtel) et le tram à quelques minutes à pieds.
Le fait que les transports soient gratuits ajoute un plus à l'hôtel !

ผผู้เข้าพักHotel very comfy, in front the train station, we loved stay here, we got a room in front of the river with a amazing view! Staff very friendly
BBenny Hon ChungThe hotel is in a central location which is only a few minutes walk from the railway station and the old town where the cathedral and all the big luxury brands can be found. There are a lot of restaurants in its vicinity. The hotel is a bit old but very clean and comfortable. The room is spacious and sound proofing is excellent. The staff are extremely polite, welcoming, and accomodating. It's worth mentioning that the hotel's check in time is 1500 but we were given a room when we arrived at 1210. The gentleman and lady at the reception counter even gave us a city map and took several minutes telling us where to go. The two reception girls in the afternoon also showed us their welcoming smiles every time they saw us. When we called to request to have a kettle the hotel gave us not just a kettle but a whole lot of instant coffee and tea bags. Wow what a surprise to receive such excellent service in a small 4 star hotel! I highly recommend it to all travellers who want to receive exceptional service.
ผผู้เข้าพักStayed at the Royal Manotel for one night while visiting Geneva to see a friend. Very friendly staff and the receptionist gave us some great recommendations of the city which we followed and enjoyed a lot.
Super close to the main station, and a tram stop right at the front which was very convenient.
The reserved room was on the smaller side and a little bit dated (there was damage to one of the walls, likely due to the door handle hitting the wall too many times). However besides that, the stay was very pleasant and I would come back. Thank you for having us!
