This was a charming, historical hotel. Our room had a beautiful river view with a balcony and a marble fireplace. The bathroom was tiny but that didn't matter to us at all. The front desk receptionist was wonderful; welcoming, knowledgeable, and with great suggestions local activities.

Tourelles is a basic hotel right along the waterfront and within easy walk of public transportation. It’s in the downtown, so it’s loud. It’s an older hotel, so there’s no a/c , and opening the window to the balcony means letting the significant noise and light in. The bathroom is tiny but had everything we needed, including a hairdryer. The staff are friendly. It met our needs perfectly; we just had a hard time finding the promised nearby public parking. To be clear, there is NO parking at the premises though they do provide a discount ticket to offset the parking fees. Did I mention its in a great location?

Beautiful old building carved up into hotel rooms. Probably about as good as one could hope for. Good location close to 5 star amenities. Not sure the advertising matches the results. Still, reasonable value for reasonable price. A bit loud but maybe higher would have been quieter. Clean and safe.

Rustic romantic hotel. Great location.
Lovely location. It felt very french and authentic. It was quite old fashioned but that gave it a romantic feel. Bathroom very small. The balcony area was lovely for a morning cup of tea and looking over the river. Staff were lovely.

Nice room, minor drawbacks
Nice room, water view and lovely sitting area (I think because I had a double..?). no A/C or washer dryer. Bathroom very small. Limited front desk service. Homeless people out front, loud sirens all night. Slightly sketchy area

Disgusted in Geneva!
We decided the hotel was totally misrepresented. Our reservation was for 2 beds the 1 bed wasn't even a full size. The bathroom was not hygienic, the neighborhood was no where near old town. In addition, the staff was rude, argumentative and not willing at all to accommodate. We left and stayed at a different hotel loosing $380 because they would not honor our request.

Pay a little more for the best room offered.
If you are going to book this hotel, just be sure you see a photo of the bathroom in the room you are booking. The first room we booked had a bathroom that I would have paid more to avoid. However, the bed was broken in that specific room and they staff was absolutely accommodating in transferring our room the next day, and the bathroom in the new room was much more appealing.

Perfect long weekend retreat
Perfect little hotel with all amenities. Bathroom was a tad small. But view was spectacular especially with the sunshine. Close to all shops, cafes and bars. Staff super friendly. There is a small lift to help get back to room after a long day of exploring. Will definitely come back and stay here.

Good location and price
The hotel location is great, very close to touristic areas, good connections with public transportation. The room was exactly what I imagined from reading other reviews. It was comfortable and it had everything that I needed. The hotel staff was very helpful, they kindly asking a few questions I had about transportation and getting around. I would definitely recommend this hotel to other travelers.
