The Novotel is an OK hotel. Good value for money in an expensive city, decent rooms, small but good layout bathrooms, free in room Internet and acceptable buffet breakfast included in the price. Then comes the issue of the location. Les Paquis is the red light district of Geneva and working girls are all around the hotel at night, more... More

Our family stayed in this hotel for 5 nights in January 2012. We had been stayed few Novotel hotels around Europe past few years, and this one somewhat below average of the rest the Novotel: 1. Our reception staff didn't voluntary to provide us the free Geneva-Card; which cost Novotel NOTHING, but any visitors staying in Geneva can use public... More

The Novotel was excellent as one would expect the area in which the hotel is located is threatening and seedy, red light district with a number of drug pushers on every concerner both day and night. I would not return More

We knew when booking that it was in a fairly central area and is handy to the train, which was good for us as we came in from Zurich. The area is a little dodgy though. Rooms are normal Novotel, spacious and modern but a room not a holiday suite. Nice enough though More

I've stayed in far more cramped and dim hotels in Geneva, so in comparison this was spacious, and free wi-fi is a good selling point. Don't bother adding the breakfast supplement - definitely not worth it. Beds are very unforgiving, and my shower door would not close all the way, meaning I had to mop up afterwards. It was also...

It's exactly what you'd expect from a Novotel, and for this price in Geneva it's exactly what you've paid for. On the comfortable side of basic, the room was spacious. Cleanliness left a little to be desired, the bath tub was very dusty and looked like it hadn't been cleaned in days. Quiet enough at nights, which was surprising considering... More

In a city where there are no bargains, this comes close. That doesn't mean it's a great value. While the public areas are nice and the rooms are reasoanlby appointed, there's still a spartan feel about the place. The bed itself, probably the single most important element of a hotel room, was a hard slab. The bathroom, a close second... More
