The Hotel is located right on the Rhone river and next to a bridge, making it easy to get to the old town across the river. There is a lack of adequate free parking. We ended up parking in the grage for the Mandarin Hotel, next door for 30 CHF per night. Street parking is free until 8AM each morning.... more

What you see is what you get with this hotel. It's an excellent value with a very friendly staff. The rooms are certainly not luxurious but very clean and housekeeping keeps them that way. The location is excellent and within walking distance of pretty much everything you need to see in Geneva. more

Yes it is true that this hotel is not much to look at but the experience i gained from the hotel was absolutely amazing. The hotel staff are very friendly and they are even willing to let you use their kitchen to prepare simple meals from the grocery store. This is a plus for those who are trying to keep... more

Had my Reservation and checked in. The place is absolutely terrible. The foyer smelled bad. The rroms were stuffy. You can open the window but then you cannot sleep. Lots of noise; many people stumbling in early in the morning. There is absolutely no reason to stay at this hotel. more

Hotel des Tourelles is a convenient, comfortable French style hotel very near the main Geneva train station. We had asked a friend who resides in Geneva where to find a cozy, economical B & B and this was his recommendation. We stayed one night and were pleased to find a cube refrigerator, 20-plus channel cable television/radio, teapot (with only camomile... more

Stayed here just for the night in Sept 2005. We got more than we expected. We had a fantastic room with its own little enclave with table and chairs looking over the river. The bed and bathroom were fine. This is not the Hilton but it is a good budget hotel. The floor is quite creaky and it could do... more

We found the staff unwelcoming and unhelpful. breakfast was served grudgingly so we took to going out to a local cafe instead. Would not stay there again. more

Des Tourelles is a basic, functional hotel without frills. Its appearance is somewhat old fashioned, and I suspect it is a while since it was last decorated. However it is certainly clean. Bedding is made up daily, and fresh towels are also provided daily. The rooms are small, but the ones at the front of the hotel are slightly larger... more

For the money, I suspect this hotel deserves a 4, though one should be aware there's a good chance that it's going to cost you more than you first thought when looking at the advertised deals. The greatest strength of the Des Tourelles is its location and the large size and airiness of the corner rooms. It is right on... more
