"Most of the rooms at this old Right Bank inn have been spruced up, with a lick of paint to the walls and the floors stripped of carpeting to reveal parquet." Full review

"One of the simplest hotels we recommend in this guide, the St-Gervais is inside an old-fashioned, vaguely nondescript building in Geneva's medieval core, a 3-minute walk from Gare Cornavin." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"Inexpensive city-centre hotel within easy strolling distance of the lakeside and train station, 15 minutes from the airport."
Lonely Planet
"Travellers with jumbo-sized suitcases beware: scaling the seven floors in the pocket-handkerchief lift of this quaint choice near the train station is a squash and a squeeze." Full review
