i booked a suite for about ?300 a night. The room was amazing looking with comfortable bed and sofas. I paid for breakfast, but instead of breakfast i got a miserable selection of cold food (not even a toast!) i was on a business trip and there was no iron in the room. they demanded ?15 to iron a suit..... Not the greatest location if you need the centre of town. If tehy charged up to ?200 a night my rating would be higher, however, i don't think that i got good value for my ( comany's) money. i will not stay there again. bring a sandwich with you.....................

The hotel is located in the old quarter of Geneva, at the top of the Cathedral hill, very short walking distance to all the old quarter sites and the English Garden and lakefront. Very nicely done, though small. This is where the Clintons stayed in 1996, according to the "graffiti" in the elevator. Nice carpeted hall, lots of wood paneling in the room, reasonable amount of space with good closet and good-sized bath (tub/shower), coffered ceilings. Great view down the hill from our room. Very helpful staff gave directions and made reservations, taxi to airport, even brought us a special breakfast tray at 5:45am so we could make our flight! Hotel Restaurant was small, cozy, and great service. The fondue was yummy, as were the main courses and a good wine list. This seems to be a hot spot in Geneva as there were several diplomat cars parked nearby. Overall an elegant experience worth the splurge for location and service.

A lovely little hotel tucked away in the old town. I regularly travel to Geneva on business, and stay at Les Armures when possible. The style is individual, rooms beautifully designed without the bland corporate styles found in so many other hotels. Lovely bathrooms! Breakfast is substantial and value for money (for Geneva anyway!). Also a good restaurant - maybe not gourmet cooking, but good solid Swiss standards and always goes down well with visiting colleagues. Staff are really friendly, must have a top CRM system as they remember all my preferences. Only grumble - can't have an iron in my room because it's a health & safety issue - that'll be 9CHF please to iron my blouse. But if that's the only fault I can find... Would I go there if it wasn't on expenses? For a very special weekend, yes.

My husband and I had researched on the internet before we booked and had read that some rooms had been recently modernised and therefore requested one – we were more than impressed, the colours, the details, the bathroom and amazing shower – just gorgeous. Hotel staff were brilliant, they gave us advice on where to go and what to see. Geneva itself does not have a huge amount to do. It does have the lovely old town with its streets to wander around and then the main shopping street with larger department stores like Globus. The hotel is in a perfect location for all of these. So with advice from staff we took ourselves off on the trains. The best place to visit, especially this time of year (if the weather is good ie not raining) is Gstaad – absolutely gorgeous and our visit here really made our whole trip worthwhile. It is approx 2 hour train journey – the scenery on route is outstanding – but when there – the little town is just breathtaking – it had just received heavy snow fall a day or two before we arrived – and with blue skies – the mountains and village it was just beautiful. One negative comment in relation to the hotel was the restaurant. Although we had found some lovely restaurants in the surrounding area of the old town (Spaghetti Factory – Caf? Demi Lune and Salle a manger and also the tiny little restaurant that made gorgeous crepes). On the Sunday night, not many restaurants were open so we thought we would try the hotels own. It looked busy with a good atmosphere, but unfortunately as we are none smokers we were sent to the basement, it had no atmosphere at all. The service was poor and unfortunately the meals we both ordered were very poor indeed – infact very disappointing especially as it turned out to be quite expensive. However we still loved the hotel – and the breakfast in the small quaint breakfast room outshone the service and quality of the main restaurant.
