I had a pleasant two-night stay at Hotel Admiral. The staff, especially Alen at reception, were incredibly friendly and provided useful tips for exploring Geneva. The hotel’s central location made it easy to walk to various attractions, though some areas nearby had a peculiar reputation. Overall, I found it to be a solid choice for the price, but the breakfast could use a bit more variety.
