The 3-star Best Western Astoria Hotel is housed in a fairly plain, 7-storey, terraced building, which dates from the 1950s. Though appointed in a simple style, the lobby is bright and furnished with comfortable sofas. The 63 guestrooms feature warm-toned décor and have been sound proofed for a peaceful and quiet stay. All are clean and well maintained, as are the en suite bathrooms. The hotel’s Britannia Pub is the first English-style pub in Geneva. Open from 11.00 am to 11.00 pm, it serves drinks and light meals in a relaxed atmosphere, enhanced by attentive staff and jazz or soul music. The hotel also offers a full Continental buffet breakfast every morning.
