The room looks absolutely nothing like the property, the room was hot without AC, dark, old. Impossible to sleep without open windows, and there was train disruption and jackhammers literally all night. We arrrive early, the receptionist through key at us and told us to find the luggage storage.

Nice, Convenient Hotel

When we checked in, the lady decided on her on that we should have a more convenient room than the one assigned to us, so she changed it! You can't beat that!! Everything about the hotel was wonderful. Location was great. The breakfast was super. Our two days in Geneva was memorable and relaxing. I am sure that having the Hotel Rousseau as our home base had a lot to do with that.

Rooms are tiny and cramped, over stuffed with furniture so it is difficult to navigate the space. You get exactly one towel per person, and one blanket. If you ask for another, you may be questioned as to why you need this blanket or towel. If he deems your request valid (in his opinion) you may get one. This was ok and sort of humorous for one night to sleep but no need to go back.
