Loved the central location and very close to main train station.
Shower glass doors are not big enough.
Very nice hotel for the price. Excellent location. They recently remodeled this Hotel but they could have done a better job with the shower glass door. This is a minor issue.

It is very posh; stylistically and aesthetically pleasing.
Cold and sterile, nothing happening at the bar or restaurants.
There are two halves to the hotel, and what they call "3rd party' reservations get treated as second class. I was expecting a 4 star hotel. We wanted a non smoking room with one king size bed. They told us the only one available was on the 1st floor with 2 twins, directly across from the conferences, even though the hotel was virtually empty but for airline employees. They said we could have a room with a king, but that would cost an additional $45 euros per night. They also informed us that if we wanted breakfast there was an additional cost and we would have to purchase it for the entire week. Because of the noise of the conference, they allowed us to change rooms the 2nd night, which was nice of them and the bed was a queen, so we were happier. It's close to the airport if that matters to you, but you need to take a bus into the heart of Geneva. We were fine with that since the hotel provides free vouchers for it. If money is no object, you may like this place. We found all the hidden costs prohibitive, and couldn't wait to get back to the Paris Marriott. But Geneva is nice, as are the people this place just seems geared for the corporate expense account folks who are not paying with their own money. You will not be disappointed if you are flying in and have your company's money to spend. Otherwise, find a nice hotel in town. read more

Nice public areas. Nice location to airport.
Staff wasn't that friendly. Asked for a fork and plate and the wanted to charge $10 for using it.
The lobby is upscale but the rooms on the older side are lacking.

It is very close to the airport. Perfect if you have a early morning flight out.
The business center computer cost used an hour and did not let you open more then one window at a time.
Hotel exceeded my expectations. Most websites gave it a 3 star. This "3 star" was nicer then most 4 stars. Most 4 starts in Geneva cost over used a night while this hotel offers a night including breakfast if you book 14 days in advance. I used for this room and it worked out fine since I was just staying in Geneva for one night prior to catching a early flight out. But I only saved and did not get breakfast so this was the first time that I felt that I did not get a savings by using. The hotel is outside the city proper so is not idea for tourists, but is ideal if you want to be near the airport or convention center. read more

Checking out of this hotel pleased me to no end.
It was an overall horrible hotel experience.
Unfriendly front end staff at a hotel too far away from anything. I would give this hotel a one star rating and I am being generous. Thanks!

Convenient location for Airport, short walk to bus stop to get downtown.
Beds were too soft and counterpane was stained and dirty.
Close to the Airport, the Crown Plaza provides a good location for the business traveler. Overall, the rooms were clean, except the counterpanes which were grubby. The hotel is a short walk from a bus stop for those wishing to go downtown. It also provides complementary bus service to the Airport.

Everything I needed for a night stay was in the room.
No shops in the hotel.
Clean, almost a cold and sterile environment. A shuttle driver from the airport seemed not so professional, i.e., not very courteous. The room was very comfortable with a bath robe, TV and water boiler for coffee or tea.

Nothing.
$30 euro cab one way to the downtown. hotel smells musty. we had a view of a wall. hallways are long and inconvenient. restaurant was closed.
I do not recommend this place. It cost us an extra $100 per day in cabs to get to and from the downtown area. Restaurant was being redone. This is no 4**** choice. It would be a reasonable value at $40 per day including all taxes etc.
