Room was loud from street traffic. Further room certainly showed signs of wear and tear. Shower was strange because you have to stand on the drain of the tub to be under the water and not spray water everywhere. Fine for a night when transiting through Geneva, but certainly not for more than a few hours.

Liked: Cleanliness
I have stayed at the Royal many times over the last decade: This was another long stay and so when I arrived I checked out BBC 1 TV channel (there was some sport I wanted to catch). It was not working correctly (very pixelated) I asked reception staff if this was just a fault in my room or not available in any room. The response was less than helpful. i was told a check on other rooms would be made and I could move rooms if. one was available with functioning TV. The staff did not get back to me on this. When I phoned again 2 days later I was told the hotel did not subscribe to BBC so no rooms had the channel. Later the same day when I tried BBC 1 and 2 they both worked perfectly. For the rest of the stay the channels worked erratically (the rain seemed to affect the quality) so it appears I was misled about this by the staff: I was not impressed by this lack of attention to detail and lack of responsiveness to a customers wishes. I will not be staying at the Royal again.

The room was very comfortable, great beds. It was very quiet. The staff is very nice. Its 6 mins walk from the train station, or 1 bus stop away. If you have too use the gym, be prepared to travel back to the 70s. The gym is only a room with very old machines and some very weird dumbells.
