Ruby Claire Hotel Geneva

Hotel goes green that u hv many things not provided in the room. Walk to the common room for hot water but the corridor was very dark and creepy. No phone in the room that u can’t call anyone to help the power trip.

Ruby Claire Hotel in Geneva offers a unique experience, though it may not be for everyone. The hotel is in a central location, situated right in the heart of Geneva’s shopping district. Tram and bus access are incredibly convenient, with stops just at the doorstep. It’s also a 10-minute walk to the bus depot for trips into France. However, finding the hotel can be a challenge. It’s not a standalone building but rather occupies part of a mall/office complex, which might confuse first-time visitors. If you’re coming from the main train station, it’s two tram stops followed by a 5-7 minute walk. The reception is located on the 7th floor, and the check-in process is entirely self-service via an iPad. While efficient in theory, the process felt cumbersome, especially with the requirement to provide a home address. Traditional hotel check-ins are certainly more straightforward. The hotel’s design is modern and minimalist but the corridors and ceilings are in black, and are lit only with spotlights. Together with a maze-like corridor design, this aesthetic choice should raise concerns about navigating during emergencies even though there are exit signs. Rooms, on the other hand, are compact yet well-designed, offering a surprising amount of space by European standards. The rain shower and the addition of a Marshall Bluetooth speaker were standout features, adding a touch of luxury to the stay. Another pleasant surprise was the galley on each floor, offering free-flow coffee and tea—a thoughtful touch for guests. The hotel provides an eco-friendly incentive: opt out of room cleaning and receive a complimentary drink at the bar, which also serves as the reception area. Considering its central location and the thoughtful amenities, Ruby Claire offers excellent value for money in a city as expensive as Geneva. This is a hotel I would recommend to friends visiting Geneva.

I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude to the front desk reception Alan Gorfinkel for his exceptional assistance during our recent stay at your hotel. We were struggling to arrange transportation to the airport, and he went above and beyond to help us secure a car. Great staff !

Room is very small but clean and tiny, suitable for short stay.

Very good location. Have nearby parking with discounted price since we stay in the hotel

Nice hotel in a fantastic location, really enjoyed my stay.
