Residence Du Grand Saconnex

Le Grand-Saconnex

Very good location for exhibition, not big expectations. Room with small kitchen with simple items, very small bathroom with simple items . From exhibition hall no 1-2 go out turn left and follow the motorway around  300 meters . Located on right corner where road connecting to main road . Very helpful staff ,  simple breakfast but its ok croissant cheese jam egg tea coffee with juice. Simple but enough. Staff very smiling face with full of helpful information and cooperation. Thanks a lot to them. Hotel gives a free transportation card in city , bus station just in front . Bus no 5 brings you from airport to here in 5 minutes, station name is same as hotel Gd Saconnex (no confusion).just few stops to UN. Same bus brings you to city center as well in 15 minutes . Bus available from very early morning to midnight with good frequencies. Very good just for sleeping not for time spending. Room is big enough for family with 1 children for low budget. On this price level no need for complain . Complaining must go to Intercontinental Hotel few station away for 3 times higher budget. 😂

Geneva Exhibition stay 

conveniently located 3 stops from the airport, near some of the UN and international organizations (10 min walking distance from ILO, IOM, WHO...).  The place is simple, clean and the owner very helpful. Internet wireless does not always work very well, but informing the owner is an effective way of fixing that issue. 
I will stay there again.

Simple and clean

The hotel is in a convenient location, third bus stop (bus 5) from the airport.  Also, the room had a large kitchen area and cooking facilities.  However, the kitchen in my room smelt of spoiled milk and the overall design decor was shabby with peeling paint and rock bottom quality of furnishings.  One night was enough!

Shabby

To get the rooms we had to take cash from a nearby cash register, old dirty rooms, and very noisy roads just in front of us, all the furniture is old and bad, no reception, it was a very bad hotel.

No way, look somewhere else.

I really enjoyed this establishment with very nice people, the restaurant very nice but small and especially the room very large. Very well located on the bus level, not far from Geneva airport

large room

From the positive: Good transportation access to Geneva airport, UN mission, Fernie Voltaire (France). Serbian restaurant/hotel employees, therefore understand Russian and their language, are also quite understandable! The availability of a kitchen, refrigerator, kitchen utensils set. The work of public transport is strictly on schedule. From the negative: Pre-booked amount of 119 CHF. Some difficulties in obtaining the original invoice - after payment was made was given only a fact.

The tide of the traveler

Would not recommend staying here, stains on the carpets, tiny bathrooms, felt like shower cubicle coming off the wall and size only suitable for a child to use.  Bed was uncomfortable and literally a mattress on the floor.  No provision for breakfast.

Awful!

The hotel is located 0.7 km to be traveled by bus #5 (finding bus stop + wait + driving in virtually standing still traffic ~ 25-35  min). 
1. IT DOES NOT HAVE ITS OWN PARKING. 
2. THE PUBLIC PARKING ACROSS THE STREET IS SMALL AND SO FULL THAT ONE CANNOT ACCESS IT BY ITS SINGLE INGRESS/EXIT POINT
These facts were not evident, to me at least, from the description of the hotel.In all fairness, this is mentioned in the hotel description but with such “fine print” that it escaped me!
If one has a car, other than parking it under one’s pillow, there is no place to put it on a radius of ~3 km (Explored and tested over 45 minutes. I ultimately returned the car to the airport!).
	The room (#19, see pictures attached):
very sparse furniture; the advertised “kitchenette is a stack of plates and a few utensils; there is a fridge; the bathroom is a afterthought plastic enclosure added to the room without any electrical outlets and a unhinged toilet seat; all power outlets are unaccessible unless you have a specific Swiss adaptor - unlike any of the other hotels with international clients services; 

	THE WIFI IS NONFUNCTIONAL. THE PHONE NUMBER MAY OR MAY NOT BE ACCESSED DIRECTLY; DURING THE NIGHT THERE IS NO ATTENDANT AND THE RECEPTIONIST IS OFF SITE, THE ON SITE SERVICE  BEING  OFFERED BY A SINGLE (BUSY) BARTENDER.

	The offsite receptionist (Sophia, under the supervision of manager “Mr. Isa)) refused to refund my reservation when I told her that I cannot stay having a car that cannot be parked. I believe they were correct in the contractual sense, but you should hope no better from the management if you choose to stay there, as I did.
The only acceptable part of this stay was that the bartender(s) with whome I dealt directly were reasonable and accommodating. 
The total price for this one night package was 192.10 SF (just about 200 US$)

You be the judge…..

Abysmal !          Staying there is a mistake.

I chose this solution because of the proximity to the Palaexpo. The structure is definitely minimal. First of all, it is NOT a hotel. It is run as a residence. It is a micro-kitchen in a room with two-person dishes. It is quite cold rooms and a cold bathroom. There is practically no soundproofing. But I have to say it was clean.

The minimum necessary

Quality report price correct for a hotel in Geneva. No luxury, no superfluity, but it's clean, bathroom (cabin) in the room. The bed is good (I slept very well). We hear some airplanes, but with Quiès balls it's quite ok. The best part is that it's next to a bus stop of several buses, one of which goes straight to the airport.
