Guest Reviews
Situated conveniently for travelers, hotelF1 Genève Saint Julien en Genevois is noted for its strategic location near Geneva Airport and the Switzerland border. Positioned between Annecy, France and Geneva, Switzerland, it serves as a perfect base for exploring the region or as a stopover when heading to Italy. Guests appreciate the easy access and proximity to their destinations, such as workplaces and family residences.
The hotel is a short drive from the highway, making it an ideal choice for those on road trips. It is also close to Viry and its shops and just a brief 7-kilometer distance from Geneva. Despite being located in a quieter area, which some found somewhat gloomy and not within walking distance to lively town centers, it offers a peaceful and calm environment for rest.
However, there are a few considerations to keep in mind: the hotel might be harder to navigate at night due to the reception being closed and some found the address label inaccurate. Additionally, the lack of in-room air conditioning and shared facilities may not be ideal for everyone. Overall, the value for money and convenience of its location make it a worthwhile choice for many travelers.

However, several guests found the breakfast options to be lacking. Some noted disappointment due to limited food variety, such as the absence of bread when the bakery supply failed, limiting choices to items like brioche. Issues with machine coffee and the dry quality of some items were also mentioned. Additionally, there were comments about the breakfast being more expensive than indicated, leading to some frustration over cost and clarity. Limited seating space was another concern, impacting the overall breakfast experience for some visitors.
In summary, while the breakfast at hotelF1 Genève Saint Julien en Genevois generally satisfies for its price, a few issues like food variety, cost discrepancies and seating limitations may affect the experience for some guests.
If you're considering a budget stay near Geneva, 'hotelF1 Genève Saint Julien en Genevois' presents a mixed bag of experiences, particularly when it comes to the rooms. Positively, the hotel offers a decent price-point given its proximity to Geneva and rooms are generally clean upon arrival with bed linens ready. The property’s location is also favorable, making it convenient for traversing the nearby areas.
Guests have remarked that although the rooms, even the bathrooms, are typically very small, they serve their purpose for short stays. Some rooms have private bathrooms that, despite their size, offer the convenience and always have hot water. Additionally, there is TV in the rooms and some thoughtful touches like bath towels and recently renovated spaces.
However, it’s important to set your expectations accordingly. Many have found the rooms to be extremely narrow and often in less-than-ideal conditions with issues such as mold, bad odors (frequently of tobacco or mustiness), dirt and even insects reported. Cleanliness has been a hit or miss with some rooms not being properly prepared or cleaned. The facilities appear somewhat neglected with old, damaged equipment and basic, uninspiring decor.
On hot days, you might find the rooms uncomfortably warm due to poor ventilation. Soundproofing is minimal, so light sleepers might struggle. While some guests appreciated the functionality and acknowledged the offering as fair for the price, others were less forgiving. Indeed, the small size and the condition of the rooms might not appeal to everyone.
In essence, if you're after a budget-friendly and conveniently located stay near Geneva and can manage modest expectations regarding room comfort and cleanliness, 'hotelF1 Genève Saint Julien en Genevois' might be worth considering for a short visit.

Many visitors appreciated arriving to find their beds already made, a convenience that is often highlighted in guest feedback. Bedding comfort is frequently noted with several guests describing it as comfortable and of good quality, contributing to a restful night's sleep.
However, not all reviews were positive. Some guests found the mattresses exceptionally hard with a few mentioning that it caused back pain. Additionally, there are mentions of unmade beds upon arrival and instances of dirty sheets, which detracted from an otherwise decent experience.

During my recent visit to the hotelF1 Genève Saint Julien en Genevois, I had a mixed experience primarily shaped by the varying levels of cleanliness. There were moments of satisfaction as I encountered clean rooms with fresh bed sheets, well-maintained facilities and pleasant decor. The cleanliness of some rooms and equipment provided a glimpse of the effort put into maintaining certain aspects of the hotel.
However, this positive experience was heavily offset by numerous issues. The state of shared bathrooms and toilets left much to be desired with noticeable dirt, dust and an unpleasant smell lingering in various areas. Guests frequently reported mold on the walls, dirty sinks and even dog kibble in corners. These issues created an impression of neglect, further emphasized by the bad odor and lack of basic cleaning.
Rooms with hairs on beds, unclean sinks and even an absence of pillowcases were also mentioned, reflecting a concerning lack of attention to detail. The problem extended beyond the rooms, as shared showers and hallways exhibited a similar level of poor upkeep.
Despite the spotless rooms experienced by some, the general state of cleanliness across the hotel requires significant improvement. The need for a thorough health inspection and enhanced daily cleaning routines is evident to ensure a consistently clean and welcoming environment for all guests.
