this hotel has an unbeatable view at the lake of Geneva, with view of the Alps. if you like that sort of thing, this can be a very nice place to stay. the hotel has much luxury to offer, but at a cost which is not in the right proportion. many hotels in e.g. the US offer at least the... More

I've regularly stayed in top end hotels but really felt compelled to write about the excellent service we had at the Grand Hotel Kempinski. Firstly the location of the hotel is brilliant. You can get a free ticket from the luggage hall of Geneva Airport to the Centre with the hotel being a 5-10 minute walk away. The hotel is... More

One of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. Luxurious in many ways but the location is perfect for a business trip or vacation in Geneva. Good selections of restaurants and casual dinning. Spa facilities - I didn't try as hadn't time but hopefully next time. Rooms are a good size even the singles but was spoiled a bit... More

If you are going to stay here at the Kempinski, just know that there is no shortage of luxury. The rooms are have modern clean lines and the rooms are noticeably quiet. You would never know there is a full service restaurant, spa, and lounge in the hotel. Spacious bathrooms with beautiful marble throughout. The reception is warm and inviting... More

Stayed for 1 night, the hotel has amazing amenties, inside pool, gym, spa and a restaurant with glass frontage over looking the lake. The hotel has eveything one can expect from a 5 star hotel. Yet as per the title the devil is in the detail. The room was spacious and had a view into the centre courtyard, yet it... More

One of the best if not THE best in Geneva. Very clean spacious room and glad to say this hotel has NOT turned the water down on the shower as seems to be the case with a lot of hotels these days. On that subject the baathroom was also a good size. Modern tv and sound system which will accept... More

The staff is really detailed oriented from the doorman at the entrance to the receptionist passing by the housekeeping and the concierge. The Grill... More

After spending 6 terrible nights at Les Suites Nevada, we made a very smart choice by heading down to Geneva and spent a night with Grand Hotel Kempinski.
