What a gorgeous hotel. This is definitely my favorite hotel in Geneva and it's one of the last of…read morethe privately owned (not big chain) five star grand hotels in the city center. The lobby is small and intimate but fabulous and all done in woods, Italian marble, lots of plush green walls with marble busts, statues and artwork. There's also the famous "Leopard Bar" in the hotel. I booked via AMEX FHR (the hotel is also a member of Leading Hotels of the World) and got a wonderful deal with breakfast and a room upgrade. Try to get a room in the front of the hotel facing the lake because you'll have the most beautiful view of the jet d'eau and the quai. Reception was so kind and actually showed me a couple of rooms. I ended up taking a room that was on the side because I loved the color and the artwork, but I could still see the lake when I looked out the window. All the rooms are different colors and shades and have different themes. Mine had a turquoise hue with a Parisian "can can" theme, original artwork and a chandelier. I also saw a room in the center with a direct view of the fountain that had a nautical royal blue theme. The thing this hotel is really famous for is the high tea at the Windows restaurant. Make a reservation in advance because it's very popular. It's something you can't miss. Try to nab a window seat with a view of the lake. The tiered tea tray is incredible and they make fabulous scones. I actually consumed an entire tier by myself! They also have a wonderful breakfast in Windows restaurant and I highly recommend the fresh crêpes with maple syrup (sirop d'érable). After breakfast, take a walk in front of the hotel to the quai where there is a modern statue for the Empress of Austria, Sisi, who was tragically assassinated nearby in the 19th century. She was staying at the Beau Rivage hotel next door. All in all this is my favorite hotel in the area. You won't be disappointed if you love the classic, grand hotel style. As it's privately owned and a part of the Red Carnation hotel group, it's not completely modernized and sparkling high tech new like some of the other hotels which have lost their character. That's its charm. And it's beautifully run and well managed. After a day the staff all knew me by name, Even the staff that I had not met! I don't know how they do that , but it's very nice
***This review is for their Afternoon Tea service only.***…read more Amazing tea service with a friendly service. I have never been to an afternoon tea were the portions were so big. They're not even "finger" sandwiches but rather regular sandwiches. They have a variety of tea to choose from and everything was so good, we didn't have dinner that night.

I went for a long walk around the lake at night and in the morning it was a quick walk to coffee if you want to get out of the hotel/ Really nothing to complain about as far as the hotel itself. Chocolate in the room upon arrival. Decent bed. Most importantly, air conditioning that worked on a very hot summer day. I would stay the Ritz Carlton I walked by nearby next time but it was okay enough. They weren't super nice at check in when I told them that no, I was paying for the room and it should have been in my name. Pretty sure he rolled his eyes at me, even if not intentional. They also could not give change at the desk for USD/CHF, which is pretty standard at hotels in Europe. Aside from that and being less than impressed with how small the room was, even for EU, it was good enough but not anymore than 3 stars for me.

Check in was seamless and easy and our double and twin (upgraded) room was ready when we arrived around 1 pm which was a nice touch. Dark wood decor throughout with a balcony. Safe was available as well a Mini Bar. Robes and slippers were provided. There is a restaurant and breakfast/Brunch was available. Although we didn't eat here, the restaurant was full during meal times. Two person elevator that is from another era but still worked and got the job done. The Fitness room/Spa area had Modern decor and is the part of the hotel that has been updated. A rare, both Steam and Dry Sauna rooms (2-3 people max capability) are included with an inviting relax area that was always kept clean and organized. An Amazing Wine Bar (La Tenuta)) and coffee shop (Christie's) just steps away and 15 minutes walk from the City Center. Yasside and the team took good care of us and gave us some great recommendations and tips. Extra star for their service minded and engaged approach. We will be back!

Wonderful views of lake Geneva and the famous fountain and the location couldn't be better. I mentioned the service.. the concierges were always available and both accommodating and understanding. The bartenders and bell men remembered my name and my drink; in fact I believe everyone remembered my name and there is almost nothing quite as impressive as adherence to a team concept of serving your customers. The Ritz had it down. No they don't have a spa; but they accommodated us with in room massages that were excellent. If you're lucky enough to be there during the "dans la noir" dinner, it's well worth the time and was quite a dining adventure. (And another chance for the team at this hotel to flex their service abilities) During a night out in Geneva, when we couldn't find ice cream, yes we called our friends at the concierge desk who were happy to direct us: there wasn't a thing that the staff at his hotel wasn't available for!

Super clean rooms and rooms that were exceptionally well-designed. They are small compared to most lodging, but brilliantly thought out--not a square inch or cm of space is wasted. Huge window and good-sized tv all abutting a comfy bet helped. Great water pressure from the shower, too. And best of all, a very fair price for central Geneva. I could not imagine anything better for the money in Geneva. As a Gen Xer in my 50s I was a little older than the Millennial-oriented and themed property but had no difficulties. I was skeptical of the "touchless/self" check-in and in-room ipod controls. However I leaned in and downloaded the app. There were always in-person staffers in the lobby/commons/"living room" who were happy to help with no tech or age shaming (an experience I wish could say for many Apple stores). They provided maps, answered touristy questions and were key to the place's positive vibe. Adjacent bar/restaurant were also comfortable for hanging out. The in-room controls via app were intuitive to use and clever jn design. Lighting, temp, tv, local info were all there--all app-based interfaces should be so simple and smart. The ONLY hiccup I had was when wanting to know when breakfast was served it required several less-intuitive clicks through the app. Having that info printed on something in the room or a front desk to call isn't part of the CitizenM model. Still, I could have asked any ofthe cheerful staff and gotten my answer. Great stay, great property, great people, price, and location. I loo forward to my next visit. Thank you CitizenM Geneva!
