Small room and bathroom but clean and with aircon. Staff were friendly, and really helpful with several enquiries Position is excellent - 5 minutes walk to the lake, and 10 minutes to the old town. No breakfast offered in the hotel, but Coop supermarket opposite had a wide range of pastries, fruit and drinks for a reasonable price. Food is expensive in Geneva - takeaway pizza booth at the top of the cinema complex was excellent, and COOP has an excellent cafe on the top floor with lots of reasonable options for both breakfast and lunch. Lovely parks, cathedral and art museum to explore. Our favourite was the Museum of Illusions - expensive but good family fun
