Stayed two nights at the Montbrillant and was very pleased with my choice of hotel in Geneva. It's location is ideal as it is next to the railway station, (6 mins by train to the airport), but within a 5 minute walk you are by the wonderful lake and in the centre of this very nice city.
Hotel staff were very polite and friendly, especially the reception and breakfast waiter. Breakfast was a Continental style buffet with good choice of fresh fruits, cheeses, cold meats etc.
Room was small but adequate as I was travelling alone and very clean. Will certainly be stauing again at the Montbrillant...good value for money.

“Good service, but very small rooms and missing A/C”

Montbrillant was nicely located near bus and railway stations and walking distance away from centre. One block away from bus stop to the convention centre. Room was clean but extremely small (appr. 10 sq meters). Service was good and restaurant downstairs served great pizzas.

Major drawback was missing A/C. During my stay, extreme heat wave harassed Central Europe and ceiling fan did not provided any help.

Overall, it would have been quite neutral experience without heat wave. However, my opinion is, that Montbrillant is not four star Hotel as sometimes advertised. I would give 2.5 to 3 stars.

“small rooms and no air conditioning”

Whilst this hotel is conveniently located and has an attractive lobby and bar area I did not enjoy my 4 night stay. The single rooms are extremely small - claustrophobically so-and there is no air conditioning. The noise of the train station and the construction work combined with the heat makes it extremely difficult to sleep and is no way compensated by the location. This hotel is much too expensive for what is offered- there are no gym or other facilities that one might expect for the price.

“Good Location”

Hotel Residence Le Montbrillant

Aug 18, 2006
1/1 found this review helpful

As mentioned by the previous reviewer, this hotel is ideally located for those travellers with luggage, travelling to and from the station. With the ramps it did make manovering the suitcases and our childs pushchair easier.

We had a room on the fifth floor. The room itself was a fair size, but did feel a little cramp with an extra bed. We did not have any air-conditioning in our room, just as well as it was "cool", raining and windy when we were there. Our room had a small sky light window. Otherwise, was nice. The only other point is, when you book this hotel be prepared for a lot of train noise, due to location.

The hotel staff were vey friendly and helpful. As it was the finale for the Geneva festival (an hour long fireworks display on the lake), the hotel staff gave us lots of advice on where to go and stand to view this, and handed out umbrellas as it was raining.

Breakfast although average was a little disappointing. A larger selection of breads etc would have been nice.

Overall, for the price we paid for our stay this hotel was good.
