An ordinary, fairly not too expensive middleware hotel next to the heart of the city.

Althought not as all Modern - this hotel is clean and spacious and has all you need, but it is nothing fancy. Nice and close to train station and restaurants and you can walk anywhere really. Friendly enough staff. Good breakfast.

The hotel is awesome! Rooms are big and very clean, breakfast is good, stuff was more then welcome, price is so low for Geneva. I will definitely stay at this hotel when i'm back! And the location is perfect, 1 minute from the train station and 10 minutes by walk from the old center.

Not very clean, but in a central position, near the station and tourist information office. Staff was very kind and we had free ticktes for public transport and boats. L'hotel n'était pas très propre, mais il se trouve au centre près de la gare et du bureau du tourisme. Le personnel est gentil et on a donné les billets gratuits pour les bateaux.

large rooms and great location - close to train station and therefore very centrally located. On the other hand, hotel is not precisely new and you can see that re-newing the place has certainly not been a priority of management (bed cover looked like a decade old and we had an armchair in the room that looked as if picked up from a trash container)... place is comfy enough, though far behind from what you'd expect from a 3*** stars accomodation for Geneve... Or maybe that's the reason why the price/quality seems expensive, with Geneve not being precisely heaven for anyone with a limited budget.

The location is very good, but the toilet was very small and the heating in the room was lacking: I had to turn on my hairdryer (that I brought by myself, the room was not provided of it) to warm up the room. In return the price and the location is very good.

I arrived early (at 11 am), and they allowed me to check-in at that time, which I appreciated. The room and bathroom were large by European standards, and they were clean. The room overlooked a side street cafe, which would of course be noisy at night, but it was not so bad as it was a Monday night. The location was good for me -- very close to the train station. They have a room where you can leave your bags if you check out early. I was able to leave my bags there until I was ready to leave at 2pm.

The only problem of this hotel is that it should change name: my room had an old-fashioned charme, with creepy wood, a lot of space, old bu clean and large bathroom. Mice breakfast

When we checked-in, we were sent to a filthy room that hadn't been cleaned. The carpet was covered in stains and the bed in the room was not the double we had booked. We were finally given a different room, but that room smelled, a light burned out as we entered the room, and if you left the bathroom light on longer than 2 minutes, it smelled like plastic was burning.

When I came, the first receptionist was not warm welcome, but when I came back after tour another receptionist was very good and helpful. in general, good location, so so hotel. the map is not so good (not clear road between train station and hotel)

Well, reaaly central location near the lake and the railway station so the price is advantageous for Geneva. But becaause the location is really central, plan some earplugs 'cos it might be noisy.

HOT, and not in a good way. Yes in was a hot day in Geneve, but this was 3am and it was still over 90 in the room and the open window had zero breeze coming through it. The curtain never moved. Of course opening the window let it very loud street noise. All night long horns honking, large delivery trucks, etc. The pillows were amazing. Usually you can flip over the pillow and it's cooler. These were actually hotter. Moderne, is the worst possible name for this place. I would not stay there again if it were free.

Not a bad Hotel for the price. It is unfortunate that the whole Hotel smells of sigaret smoke.

Good central location although directions could be better - walked too far! Staff were excellent - knew my key number after first night. Breakfast is tiny so you may have to wait for a seat but food was OK. Geneva is pricey so if you can get under 100 CHF it is a bargain.

Considering the name of the hotel is "Moderne" we found it very dated - 1950's. The breakfast room was far too small for the number of guests staying in the hotel. Sound-proofing was non-existent. Despite having our internal door closed, noise from the corridor and the adjacent room woke us up several times during the night.

No tea/ coffee facilities in room, Triple room was twin room with extra bed added, giving very little space to move in the room. Room smelled of smoke, needs redecorating and new bathroom.

The hotel was in an ideal location to explore Geneva and close to all the major attractions, as well as transport links. The quality of the rooms and breakfast was extremely good value for money and the staff did everything to make our stay as enjoyable as possible and provided banter as well. A great budget hotel.

Generally pleasant, helpful staff. Excellent location, but very noisy. We had to keep the windows closed--in the midst of a heat spell--and there is no air conditioning. The facilities are ageing, and it doesn't appear too much effort is going into upkeep. Reasonable quality for the price.

Nous avons été dérangé une bonne partie de la nuit par les occupants de la chambre voisine (555) qui étaient très bruyants (c'est peut-être un cas exeptionnel, nous n'avons passé qu'une nuit). Nous avons apprécié d'avoir une cabine de douche plutôt qu'une baignoire.

Are there different categories of rooms: one to let travel agencies take high quality pictures, and the others for the guests. Mine was poorly equipped: no bulbs (or broken ones) in the lamps, questionable cleanliness...

Good hotel, clean and friendly with good breakfast provided. No parking available and public car parks are very expensive. Rooms very hot in summer and lack fans and airconditioning.

Clean, comfortable, spacious... great breakfast... but hotel clerk came into room with 3 male, potential guests to "show them the room" ~ with only a brief knock... we were grateful we were dressed... very rude to invade privacy before we had checked out.

The Hotel Moderne is a poor hotel in every respect. The room was very noisy, dark and smelled extremely of tobacco. Not to be recommended.

Hotel was adequate. Location good. Rooms are in desperate need of refurbishing and new furniture.

Except the decoration of the room is as old as 70's year. I was satisfied staying at this hotel because the staff was very kind. And the breakfast was very good than I had expected.
