HOTEL TOR * * *
Just steps away from the lake and train station, the hotel is ideally located in a lively area in the heart of the city, close to the Brunswick monument, the lake and the water fountain. The Tor Hotel offers 22 rooms, check the website as prices vary and may be overpriced depending on the time of year. The hotel occupies three floors of a building that can accommodate both business and leisure travelers. Good reception. Mostly a convenient hotel for its location near the train station, but the neighborhood is noisy and it's poorly soundproofed. As a stopover.

En dehors de cet emplacement, il est incroyable avec de nombreux restaurants et le lac Léman est à 5 minutes en voiture.

Rooms are clean and tidy! Hotel doesn't have a parking of its own hence 4 star..
Apart from that location is amazing with lot of dining options and lake geneva is like 5 mins drive.
C'est juste notre chance qu'il fasse plus de 90 degrés aujourd'hui, donc c'était étouffant dans notre chambre - j'avais l'impression d'être dans un four. Notre fenêtre a donc dû être ouverte pour tenter de la rafraîchir - par exemple le bruit de la route et de la rue. J'éviterais cet hôtel comme la plaque durant l'été !
De plus, il pourrait bénéficier d’un bon lavage sous pression – mais c’est ma faute si je n’ai pas lu les critiques de plus près, car d’autres l’ont mentionné, il devient un peu branlant.

As I write this review at 2am, the youth of Geneva are outside racing their expensive sports cars along the main drag right outside the hotel. It has been impossible to sleep at all.
Just our luck that it was over 90 degrees today, so it was stifling in our room - it felt like I was in an oven. So our window had to be open to attempt to cool it down - ergo the road and street noise. I would avoid this hotel like the plaque during the summer!
Plus it could benefit from a good power washing - but that’s my fault for not reading the reviews closer, as others have mentioned that it’s getting a bit rickety.

The location is superb, with just a 5-minute walk to the train station and the lake. The breakfast is conveniently served in-room, and the portions are generous. The service was outstanding. However, it's worth noting that there is no air conditioning; a fan is provided instead. The building itself is quite old, evident from the flooring and windows.

The bathroom is a bit small, and the hotel is a bit far away from the train station Gare Cornavin, but the staff are very nice, and the room is comfortable and big. The room service breakfast is extremely delicious and full.

This "hotel" was a complete disappointment, I booked this expecting at least a "3-star" hotel, as written on ghe description, but this property is not even a 1-star hotel and should not be under the "hotel" filter on booking. This is a hostel, at best. When I arrived, there was no one to assist with my bags, i had to drag it to the 3rd floor where the check in reception is. A 3-star hotel should at least have a bellman or staff to help with luggage, at this poing i felt like I was checking in at an AirBnB! The building had units that are not part of the hotel. When you enter the door with the hotel units - it absolutelt reaks! I don't can't explain who died with that smell. All the hallways are dark and sketchy. Floors are squeaking. And when you enter the room - it is NOT as shown on photos. The floor is very old and dirty and I dont even know if the sides are moldy but they are all black! Very dusty, bathroom was small (again, not as shown on photos) and I came in not even on a summer day, but the room was so isolated and lacked ventilation even if you open the window - no air was coming in - only dust. The bed was squeaking and just from sitting down, it was uncomfortable, i wouldnt be able to sleep there. Switzerland was supposed to be a vacation for me and this place almot ruined it if I stayed there. I could not even stomach spending a night there so I had to look someplace else. It's not even a "cheap" property, so you don't get the value for money.
