I had high expectations for my stay at The Ritz-Carlton Hotel De La Paix, Geneva, but it was quite a mixed experience. While the setting by Lake Geneva was picturesque and the staff's hospitality left a positive impression, the service shortcomings were disappointing. My room, although well-appointed, had some noise issues, and the dining experience didn't live up to the hotel's reputation.

Rooms

6.0

My corner suite was spacious and clean, offering a nice view of the lake, but sadly, it was somewhat noisy due to its location on the main road and had a joining room door that compromised privacy.

Service

5.0

While the initial welcome was warm and friendly, the overall service quality fell short. The long wait for drinks at the bar and later disturbances from neighboring guests were disheartening.

Location

The hotel boasts a beautiful location right by the lake, which is great for exploring the heart of Geneva. However, the noise from the main road affected my comfort during the stay.

Dining at the hotel was not as enjoyable as I expected. The cocktails were great, but I faced delays and the offerings felt limited, prompting me to seek dining elsewhere.

Facilities

5.0

While the hotel had many great features like concierge services and lovely common areas, the absence of a spa and the issues with room amenities were drawbacks during my stay.

I had mixed feelings about my stay at The Ritz-Carlton Hotel De La Paix in Geneva. While the luxurious ambiance and stunning views of Lake Geneva were definitely highlights, I faced some issues with service and amenities, particularly with housekeeping not fulfilling simple requests. Overall, there were amazing aspects, like the bar’s vibrant atmosphere and the lovely views, but a few shortcomings left me feeling it wasn’t quite the experience I hoped for.

Rooms

My Deluxe Lake View room was spacious and beautifully designed with a comfortable bed, though I struggled a bit with the room temperature as the air conditioning wasn't functioning perfectly (so I had to adjust to the warmth). The stunning lake view made up for some of these discomforts.

Service

While some staff members displayed really good hospitality, like the bar team, there were times when the service felt inadequate, particularly when I requested housekeeping assistance (they seemed overwhelmed or unresponsive).

Location

The hotel is centrally located, making it easy to explore Geneva on foot. I appreciated being close to dining options and attractions (it was convenient to step right out into the vibrant city).

Dining

The dining options were a mixed bag. I enjoyed delicious meals in the bar (the cocktails were a standout!), but I found the breakfast mediocre and overpriced (it could have offered a better selection of hot items).

Facilities

5.0

The hotel’s facilities were quite limited; I missed having a pool or spa on-site. The gym seemed outdated and there weren’t many amenities available overall, which felt disappointing.

The service was world-class and exceptionally attentive. From the friendly reception team to the staff in the Living Room restaurant, everyone made an effort to ensure I felt comfortable and valued.
