Great
ZZuiyuchenThe front desk staff, especially the gentleman, was incredibly kind and helpful. He made storing our luggage very easy. He even came out to tell us we could wait inside for our Uber because it was cold outside at night. Plus, he spoke a little Mandarin, which was very friendly. The hotel service was excellent, the room was spacious, and the location was convenient, with a shuttle bus available. If I go back to Geneva, I would definitely book here again; it was a fantastic experience.

GGuest UserAverage Swiss fare, I could not really judge service as I only stayed one night. In that area and segment, hotels fall flat by offering sub-standard service. so OK for one-night stay for sure.

GGuest UserHotel was immaculately clean and smelt lovely, room was perfect, location was great, right in the heart of Geneva with easy access to train stations/bus stations and activity pick up points, nice chocolate shop underneath the hotel, with a McDonald’s and a wine and cheese restaurant.
Although the breakfast buffet was all cold food baring boiled eggs, however choice was great, staff very attentive.
Overall would recommend this hotel to anyone, cheap enough for Geneva and couldn’t fault it personally.

GGuest UserA great apartment hotel, located very close to the old town. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, with an elevator and a fully equipped kitchen. There are also two supermarkets nearby, making it very convenient to buy groceries and cook.

GGuest UserThe room was well-appointed and spotlessly clean, the overall environment was pleasant, and the service was excellent! The hotel reception is conveniently located above a COOP supermarket. Guests can take the elevator directly from the underground parking garage to the lobby on the 0th floor, which is extremely convenient. The only minor drawback was that the room felt a bit small. While two 28-inch suitcases on the floor would certainly obstruct movement, we found that placing them on the bay window freed up a lot of space and made the room much more comfortable.

GGuest UserIt was my first time in Geneva. I chose this hotel blindly (I originally wanted to choose a local castle hotel, but I missed it). It was really good. I will stay in this hotel again next time.

WWoaixizaoyeThe room is excellent, the location is convenient, and the facilities are comprehensive. The service attitude is exceptionally good, and having a small kitchen allows me to cook my own meals. It meets all my business travel needs. It has now become my go-to accommodation every year when I travel to Geneva for work.

GGuest UserI had a wonderful stay at the Green Marmot Hotel. The location is excellent,close to plenty of shops, restaurants, bars, pharmacies, and bakeries, so everything you need is nearby. The hotel itself is very clean throughout. Although the room is small, just as described, it suited me perfectly.
One downside is that sound travels easily, so you can hear even minor noise from neighbouring rooms, earplugs are definitely helpful. The motion-sensor lights in the corridor were also a bit disruptive, as I’m easily woken by light, so an eye mask is recommended. Additionally, some guests arrive late, so it can get a little noisy.
Overall, I would highly recommend staying here.
