My stay at the Royal Manotel was a bit of a mixed bag. On one hand, the staff were super friendly and attentive, which made things easier. But on the other hand, the noise from a private reception kept me up past midnight, and my room wasn’t cleaned until late in the day, which was really frustrating. If you're just passing through Geneva, this place might work, but I'd consider other options for a more relaxed vibe.

Rooms

6.0

The room was adequate, clean, and spacious with comfy beds, though a bit generic and lacking charm. I woke up to a very dry scrambled eggs breakfast, which could have been better.

Service

6.0

The staff were quite helpful and attended to my needs, but they couldn’t handle issues effectively, which was a downer when my room wasn't cleaned on time.

Location

7.0

The hotel is located fine, near the train station and public transport, making it convenient for city exploration, but it's a bit far from the old town attractions.

Dining

5.0

Breakfast was decent but felt more average than amazing. I found it quite pricey, and my breakfast options left something to be desired, given the quality compared to other spots in Geneva.

Facilities

7.0

The amenities like free transit passes were nice, and the gym was good enough, though dumbbells would’ve been a nice addition to the fitness setup.

My stay at Royal Manotel in Geneva was a mix of positives and negatives. While the location was convenient and the staff were friendly, I faced several issues that left me disappointed, particularly with the room's amenities and breakfast options. Overall, I appreciated the cleanliness of the hotel, but it didn’t feel like a true four-star experience. 🌟😕

Rooms

5.0

The room I stayed in, although clean, felt more like a budget accommodation than a four-star hotel. There was no iron in the room, and I noticed stains on the walls. The bathrooms seemed outdated, and the lack of air conditioning made the room uncomfortably hot. I did appreciate the Nespresso machine, but it did not compensate for the overall condition of the room.

Service

6.0

While some staff members were friendly and helpful, especially those in the parking area, my interactions with the reception were not great. There was a clear lack of empowerment among the staff to address issues effectively, which affected my overall experience.

Location

8.0

The hotel's location is a significant advantage. It is close to the main train station, making it easy to explore Geneva and nearby attractions. I felt safe in the area, and the availability of public transport was a big plus.

Dining

5.0

Breakfast was a letdown for me. Despite the staff's friendliness, the buffet lacked variety and quality. I can't recommend it, and if I'd had to pay for it separately, I definitely wouldn't have returned for a second day.

Facilities

5.0

The hotel offered a few amenities, but the gym had several machines out of order during my visit, which was disappointing. It seems that many of the advertised facilities weren't well maintained, impacting my overall impression of the hotel.

My stay at Royal Manotel was quite mixed. The location was excellent, making it easy to explore Geneva, but the room I received didn't match what I was promised. While the staff were friendly and tried to help, the outdated decor and various issues detracted from the experience. The dining options also left a lot to be desired, failing to meet expectations for a hotel of this caliber.

Rooms

5.0

The room was much smaller than advertised and quite dated. I noticed issues like weak water pressure in the shower and rough bed sheets, which was disappointing given the hotel's reputation.

Service

7.0

While the staff were generally friendly and eager to assist, I did encounter some knowledge gaps with certain receptionists during my stay. They did try to address my concerns, including providing a mobile air conditioner when it got too hot.

Location

8.0

The location was one of the hotel's strong points. It was conveniently located near the train station and had a tram stop right outside, making it easy to navigate around the city.

Dining

5.0

Breakfast was quite limited and did not live up to expectations. The offerings were basic and did not include a good variety of options, which was disappointing for a hotel of this standard.

Facilities

5.0

The hotel offered standard facilities like room service and laundry, but the overall experience felt lacking compared to what one would expect from a four-star hotel. Maintenance issues like broken facilities added to this negative impression.

7.0/10

My stay at Royal Manotel had its ups and downs. The location was fantastic, right in front of the tram stop and just a five-minute walk from the train station. However, the room we booked didn't match the glamour shown in the pictures online, and I was quite disappointed with the outdated decor and issues like a broken shower head. While the staff were friendly and accommodating, the overall service left something to be desired, especially in terms of communication and organization.

Rooms

5.0

I was underwhelmed by the junior suite. It looked like it hadn't been updated since the 70s, with old furnishings and a less-than-pleasant view. The bed was uncomfortable, and there were noticeable maintenance issues that should have been addressed.

Service

5.0

While I appreciated the friendliness of the staff, the service felt disorganized. I faced multiple issues with the restaurant reservations and even with charging my electric car, which the staff initially said would be easy but turned out to be anything but that.

Location

5.0

The hotel is conveniently located near the tram station and close to areas of interest in Geneva, which made it easy for me to get around. Yet, I felt a bit uneasy walking around at night due to the area not feeling very safe.

Dining

5.0

The breakfast spread was okay, but lacking in variety compared to what I expect from a four-star hotel. I was surprised to find that I could order additional items only after seeing them on other guests' tables. Dining could definitely be improved.

Facilities

5.0

The hotel had a decent range of amenities, but some services like room service were poorly communicated. I was unaware of options available to me until I noticed them being used by other guests. It felt like there was a communication gap in detailing what was provided.
