This is a lovely family run hotel on the edge of Switzerland - yet the hotel could be nothing else but French. It is small, homely, friendly and comfortable. Not luxurious - our room was small and furnished with old style wardrobe and dressing table... a comfortable double bed and a pristine shower room. We had a window over the... More

If you want to stay close to Geneva airport in a hotel which gives you a taste of France rather than a taste of airport this is the hotel for you. We arrived late in the evening before an early morning flight and wanted something not overly expensive but not too boxy. My husband told me to check for a... More

Attractive historic building right in the heart of the village. Stayed in good-sized doulbe room on top floor (99 euro) - necessitating 3 flights of steep stairs (which are no big deal). Shower could do with upgrading, but adequate. Tea/coffee making facilities in room. Breakfast is extra (9 euro) and OK; you can even boil your own egg! Overlooks village... More

Its quiet location and accessibility to Geneva by bus and car make this hotel a great asset. But do not expect much help at the front desk. Staff is overwhelmed and devote more time and attention to the hotel's restaurant bussiness than to hotel patrons. Charging extra for breakfast is unfair. Be aware: there are no airconditioner or heating facilities... More

Close to Geneva, in Ferney Voltaire, there is a house , from 18 th century, which had been built by voltaire himself for his "ideal City", and which is now a great hotel and an excellent restaurant. The rooms have kept the charm of the ancient time, with beams and chimneys, whereas the food is very " modern cuisine", served... More

This place sums up France for me, good and bad. Good in that everything was of a good quality, including the room (given the price I paid relative to other accom near Geneva airport during a major conference) and the splendid breakfast. Located on a quiet street in the middle of what looked like a very nice little town, I... More

First of all, if you look for the cheapest 2 stars hotel around Geneva, you may not have great expectations. This is how I crossed L'Hotel de France, but what I really found is an historical building, in the past owned by the private secretary of Voltaire, to which the town of Ferney-Voltaire is entitled. The building has been partially... More

Could be better & has to be better regarding the number of accommodations proposed around. Looks pretty & nice but facilities/amenities/services/technologies (all)/rooms are just mediocre and unpleasant. Need some basic improvements to pretend to be 2** hotel. Restaurant expensive nevertheless very nice

Basic and good value for money, easy access from the airport (just take bus "Y" to end stop "Ferney-Voltaire", and hotel will be short walking distance from there). Just note that bus is not too frequent The rooms are charming, but bathrooms already are too old, and although clean enough, dont seem so due to age. Towels, linen are all... More

L'hotel de France is a charming and comfortable hotel in the centre of Ferney Voltaire. Due to it's location, it can be a bit noisy but the rooms are large, light and airy. The stairs could be a challenge for large and heavy luggage.
