Geneva City
View from the south tower of Saint-Pierre Cathedral.
Geneva is a city in Switzerland that lies at the southern tip of expansive Lac Léman (Lake Geneva). Surrounded by the Alps and Jura mountains, the city has views of dramatic Mont Blanc. Headquarters of Europe’s United Nations and the Red Cross, it’s a global hub for diplomacy and banking. French influence is widespread, from the language to gastronomy and bohemian districts like Carouge.
Geneva is ideally situated to explore the surrounding lake and countryside areas. There are countless smaller towns and villages within easy reach of the city just waiting to be discovered by adventurous day trippers #LifeAtExpedia

Clean comfortable room. Quirky floor plan and basic included services (tea and soluble coffee in a galley per floor). Bar is great, but food options are a bit minimal. Breakfast is good but very expensive (as everything in Geneva?).
