The hotel needs renovation.
There’s only 1 pillow per person. No body lotion. The front desk are not “that friendly”, no one bothered to inform us that the luggage cart won’t fit in the narrow elevator.
The location is “perfect”

clean room; good staff; GREAT manager who helped me when the others couldn't; great location
Across the street from train station. Very convenient!
Windows are soundproof! Black out curtains. Very comfortable beds and pillows, room size great. Near great restaurants.All walkable. A lot of our trip was by train, so very convenient!
We needed a close hotel to the train station and Expedia suggested this one. Lots of restaurants nearby. Pleasant staff at the front desk. Nice spacious room. Perfect for our needs, though the bathtub was deep to get in and out of (bad knees). The breakfast on the 8th floor was good and the view outstanding. Definitely will stay here again.
Hotel Cornavin is in a great location across from Geneva's main train station. It is also convenient to several bus and tram lines making it easy to explore the city.The bathroom and decor are a little dated but the rooms are clean and comfortable.
Next to Geneva Station. The hotel is aged but clean, tidy and staffs are helpful. Highly recommended.

The hotel room is a bit small for 3 people ( triple room).
We were given the first floor and was quite noisy as we could hear the trams passing by most of the time till midnight .
There is no air conditioning except a fan.
However , the location is excellent , just a few minutes walk to the Train station, tram and bus stops.
