I had a wonderful stay at the hotel with clean and spacious rooms offering a priceless view directly to the lake. The balcony with a fantastic view across the lake and mountains was a highlight, even though the lack of air conditioning was a downside. The location, right beside the Metro and near the Lake and Olympic Museum, was super convenient for exploring the city.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The small room with a large balcony was not ideal for staying during peak summer due to the lack of air conditioning, making it uncomfortably hot. However, the presence of three full beds was a great advantage, ensuring no one had to settle for a rickety sofabed. The room felt cramped with limited free space.

My stay at the hotel was overall fantastic. The rooms were very clean and had everything I needed, which was a major plus. The staff were really friendly and great with my shy 3-year-old, making our stay even more enjoyable. The location was excellent, providing me with a stunning view of the lake, perfect for a business trip. The dining experience was super good, especially with the beautiful view of Lac Leman. However, the sudden increase in the CHF was a bit challenging to deal with. Despite this, the hotel is a great option with a lot to offer.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms, although small, were clean with a fantastic view over Ouchy and the lake; unfortunately, it was too hot in the room, and the hotel couldn't provide air conditioning due to its age. The service was a bit of a hit-and-miss with lovely gestures like free transport cards but a lack of politeness and flexibility in other areas. The location was superb with easy access to public transport and beautiful views of Lake Leman, yet the dining options were just average. The facilities were decent but nothing exceptional.

The hotel has undergone renovations, offering clean and updated rooms with the bonus of a telescope; however, the absence of air conditioning and damp smell from the bathroom carpet could be off-putting. The service, though unprofessional at times, includes a shoe shine service, and the location is perfect for easy access to the subway and beautiful lake views. The dining experience, marred by untidiness and high prices, delivers a mixed bag. Overall, a decent spot with room for improvement.
