“I appreciate that this hotel sits directly across from the main railway station, a boon for travelers arriving or departing by train. The inclusion of an in-house pub-Britannia Pub-is a distinctive touch, offering a convenient spot for a meal or drink. While the location is central, light sleepers might notice city sounds at night.”

Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Hotel Astoria enjoys a superb location near the train station, providing convenient access to transportation and within walking distance of the city center and the lake. Guests appreciate having amenities like free tea and coffee in their rooms, along with a mini fridge and kettle. Plus, the provision of a complimentary travel pass is a significant bonus for exploring Geneva's convenient public transport. Some guests have mentioned occasional noise due to thin walls, but overall, the hotel is considered a great value, especially given its central location with a Migros discount store right next to the train station.

The hotel is located across the street from the main train station, very convenient. A supermarket is also nearby, alongside many restaurants. I appreciated the inclusion of bottled water, a kettle, and a fridge in the room. Luggage storage was also available after check out, a pleasant bonus.
The air conditioning did not cool effectively. This made the room a bit warm, especially during the hot days.

A pub adjacent to the hotel offered breakfast buffets at reasonable prices. The proximity made it easy to grab a quick meal before starting the day. There was a decent variety of options available, including fresh fruit and pastries.
