The staff were courteous and the place was spotless and more recently upgraded than I expected. My room was very quiet and clean and of course the location of the hotel is bang in the middle of everything, so super convenient. I would definitely consider the Bernina again for a future visit to Geneva.

Bijou hotel, well located near the train station. Compact room with just enough space to move around, excellent blackout blind. Coffee machine and little fridge were both invaluable. Would stay there again.

An excellent stopover whilst travelling through Geneva on the way to the airport. Opposite the exit from the main station and 2 mins walk from the no. 18 tram - which we used to visit CERN. Return to the airport by train was very quick and like the earlier tram visit, free with the transport pass provided by the hotel at check-in. Staff were really helpful, room facilities were modern. The tea, coffee and treats provided were much appreciated. The only negative to mention is that the room we were in was on the small side, although fine for our requirements.
