My stay at the Intercontinental Geneva was a mixed bag. The service was quite really good, with staff making me feel valued and offering attentive care throughout my visit. However, I faced several issues with the room's amenities and some misleading information regarding transportation services which couldn't be overlooked.

7.4/10

I had a pleasant stay at the Intercontinental Geneva, and while the location was convenient with easy bus access, it wasn't right in the city center. My corner room offered stunning views of Lake Geneva and was spacious, though it did have some minor issues. Dining options were appealing, especially during lunch at the Woods restaurant, but I found the prices a bit steep. Overall, the service stood out positively, and I appreciated the attention to detail from the staff.

Dining

I truly enjoyed my meals at the hotel, especially lunch at Woods, where the steak was divine, but I thought the breakfast prices were quite high for what was offered.

Facilities

8.0

The gym and spa facilities were decent, though I didn't get to fully enjoy the Hammam due to a lack of staff upon my visit. The room service was automatic and efficient, enhancing my stay.

My stay at the Intercontinental Geneva was generally enjoyable, highlighted by the spacious, well-appointed room offering stunning views of Lake Leman and the mountains. However, I found the breakfast experience to be less pleasant during the weekdays due to large crowds. While the staff were mostly attentive and friendly, there were some lapses in service that detracted from the experience, especially around the pool area. Overall, it was a nice stay with some room for improvement. 🌅
