good option close to GVA airport
Quiet, clean, comfortable place to stay close to Geneva airport. Only downside is that, though it is walkable from the airport, it is a bit difficult to find the entrance. Recommended.

Hotel padrão íbis. Não ajudaram muito na chegada e nem foram tão hospitaleiros. Mas depois de conversar foram legais. Só não informaram que ir andando até o aeroporto era bem longe, falaram que era perto. Tirando isso, foi ok e perto do aeroporto.

Super Lage, Ausstattung das nötigste, Personal leider nicht wirklich kompetent und lange Wartezeit an der Rezeption (kann aber such nur Zufall gewesen sein), Insgesamt aber sauber und für eine Nacht zum überbrücken sehr praktisch und nicht teuer
A good place to stay, close to the airport, but it is a bit further than other airport hotels I have stayed at, bit of a walk if you have large bags!

Padrão Íbis, um pouco melhorado.
Padrão Íbis com a vantagem de ter um chuveiro decente e não estilo "banheiro de navio" como os outros. A localização é excelente por ser anexo ao aeroporto, com um ponto estratégico de ônibus logo a frente e de fácil acesso a ONU/OIT/OMS. É bastante afastado, no entanto, do centro da cidade. Único problema é não ter local para dispor a mala nem frigobar.
