it was an incredibly expensive week in Geneva. some big conferences. Cristal was charging relatively more than the usual, like the other hotels, but remained one of the only sanely priced options. Location is great - just near the train station, room very clean, high-techy design look but generally just minimal. However, that did the job for a small room... More

We stayed in this hotel due to their design. The room is new, nice and modern (excluding the room key). The bed may be too soft but I like it. The cable TV has several channels. Location is great, very close to main station, close distance to the lake, convenience store, restaurants, shopping area. Staff is nice and friendly. Breakfast... More

Having been warned in advance about Geneva prices this hotel seemed too good to be true. Excellent central location, very friendly and accommodating staff, we spent two nights here over the Bank Holiday weekend for just £75 a night. The rooms are very modern but functional. My only one small gripe was the lack of English speaking channels on the... More

This hotel was booked by my Italian colleagues. We were looking for a less expensive hotel for Geneva but with a good location. In this case, the location was perfect. It is very close to the Cornavin train station, making transportation to/from the airport and convention center a breeze. Traffic is an issue in Geneva and the use of public... More

This is one of a new breed of hotels I like to stay in. It's budget but it's also a bit funky. Same idea as an Ibis but much, much better. The design of the room is really clever, no wasted space, useful shelves and hanging space, a good bathroom and a very comfy bed/linens. Big selling point for me,... More

If you're looking for a slick, modern, euro hotel that's cozy and perfectly situated, this is the place. Super convenient and has all the amenities you'll need. However, the interior design is wild and unsurpassed. My room face the rear courtyard and was quiet (recommended). It was also small but that's Europe and you won't be in the room much... More

Room is all in sky blue, looks kinda interesting. Hotel is equipped with Hair dryer, packaged soap and hair body shower. Toliet is clean, very refreshed. Like it, value for money, good location. Couldn't have ask for more. Only down side is the MacDonald downstairs seem to have quite a few rowdy people otherwise, if you are hungry, a perfect... More

I ended up at Hotel Cristal through a last minute Trip Advisor booking but would definitely make this my hotel of choice on future trips to Geneva. It's 2 minutes from the central station under a covered arcade and is ideally placed for all city centre amenities. The room was great and cleverly thought out, with strategic mirrors and full...

Loved the hotel. Very good and warm friendly service. Great funky décor in the hotel and the rooms as well. Very modern and clean and good facilities. The view from the breakfast room was wonderful overlooking the roof tops. A great location close to everything and close to the tram stops, shops and restaurants. Loved it and would recommend.

My partner and I spent three very happy and comfortable nights (on a room-only basis) in this gem of a city-centre hotel. Located just a few minutes walk from the main train station and the lake front, this hotel is perfect for reaching many of Geneva's main attractions. It's away from the red-light district, so you needn't feel intimidated when... More
