Old hotel in the mountains outside Geneva.
Excellent value in a very nice little French mountain town. The lady that is the owner is limited in English but functional. The restaurant is open for dinner and the breakfast is excellent.

Old hotel with character
We stayed one night at Le Soleil. This small hotel is in a small village in the Jura region in the Alps. The hotel is what you can expect for a hotel from 1740. Small room but clean. The staff very welcoming and friendly. We would stay there again.
Very comfortable rustic hotel centrally located. Staff, although not fluent in English, were extremely accommodating and tried very hard to ensure our comfort. Would recommend to anyone.
We booked two rooms. The host was very nice. I was especially impressed by the little town - serene, cute with gorgeous views.
We had Fondue for dinner. It was delicious.
The breakfast looked beautiful but unfortunately we didn't have the time to enjoy it.
My daughter left the phone in her room and the host kept it for us. We went back and picked it up.
The hotel owner/manager was very friendly and helpful, she really made us feel at home. We will definitely stay again if we are visiting that area again.

Good base for the Haut Jura
Friendly basic hotel. Good base for the area. Good value for money
The tortuous road from Gex to Mijoux is well worth the trip because Hotel le Soleil was a great place to spend a quiet night, at least in mid-June. In ski season this village would be hopping with activity, but in mid-June it was quiet and delightful. The hotel staff were gracious and generous.

Quaint older hotel
This hotel is an older quaint place with a charming owner.
The room was comfortable and generally acceptable. Overall condition was what one should expect from a building that must be at least 100 years old.
Breakfast was very good.
The area is a ski location high in the mountains. Getting there is an experience as one winds up about 100 hair-pin turns, and probably 6 or 7,000 feet in altitude from the highway on the Swiss side of the mountain. Not hard to find with a GPS.
The biggest drawback is the lack of an elevator (lift). Two long flights of stairs with luggage is a challenge.
lovely hotel, but the website said 13 miles or 21 km from geneva, but it is really 44 km up steep mountain road with hairpin bends. The website on hotels .com is misleading and must be fixed. The hotel itself was very nice
Great stay and a nice hotel which was adequate for our needs.

Friendly staff
Summer time stay & we arrived late. But the welcome was helpful. When we got to the dining room the meal was excellent. Certainly plenty of it. They went out of their way to cater for the children who were tired.
We were traveling from Pamplona to switzerland and decided to stop here. The town was very quaint and the hotel was also. If you are looking for luxury, this is not it, but the location had a nice breakfast and worth the money.

Very far from geneva
Owners were hospitable. Only problem is that it is misleadingly stated to be 17kms away (in a straight line) when it is actually over 35km of winding road with a fair percentage with hairpin corners. 130 euros by taxi!
Had a fabulous stay. A little out of the way, but, great food in the restaurant and friendly staff. Their English is much better than my French, but, you are still reminded you are in France not Geneva.

Hôtel au pied des pistes et au centre ville
Bon séjour dans l'ensemble dommage que la direction ne nous est pas dit que pour Noël se serait menu unique à 45euros par personne même pour les enfants ,par téléphone on nous avait dit menu raclette .
Et vraiment dommage d'avoir une personne devant nous qui a du mal à aligner deux mots et qui sent fort l'alcool .

Expédia n'a pas transmit notre reservation
Merci expédia! Nous avons reserve sur le site et lorsque nous sommes arrivés à l'hôtel et malgre la confirmation envoyée, aucune reservation à notre nom! Très pratique avec un bébé de 8 mois. Nous ne passerons plus jamais par ce site.
Nous sommes restés 2 nuits, nous avons pris nos 2 diners dont la qualité était présente mais le service manquait de professionnalisme et la gérante n'était pas agréable, contrairement aux jeunes serveuses. L'hôtel est bien situé mais mériterait un bon rajeunissement (moquette ancienne grise avec des grosses taches dans la chambre et moquette rase grise dans les escaliers).
Si vous n'avez pas peur d’affronter l'humeur approximative de la patronne et si vous n’êtes pas allergique à la poussière vous passerez une très bonne nuit dans des chambres à la moquette dévastée et certainement pleine de ....
N'ayez pas peur des couvertures qui sentent la transpiration de vos prédécesseurs...
Pour ce qui est du petit déjeuner, vous le partagez avec la moisissure verte sur le pou-ding maison et les yaourts à température ambiante 25 °......
Struttura molto spartana (camere molto piccole e bagni antiquati) e difficile da raggiungere (+/- 15 km di strade di montagna).
Cio' malgrado il vero problema è l'accoglienza: assolutamente scortese al limite dell'offensivo. Servizio clienti nullo.
Da evitare, specialmente con bambini (mal tollerati)
juse un problème pour les repas du soir qui n'ont pu être satisfait selon l'habitude de l'hotel.... sans doute quelque problème interne ont joué sur l'offre de service;; dommage

Das Frühstück war in Auswahl und Quantität in Ordnung, da wir beim ersten Abendessen fast rohes und zähes Fleisch mit mäßigen angerichteten Beilagen angeboten bekamen hatten wir für den Rest des Uraubs auswärts gegessen, was auch nicht viel besser war. Da wir im Saarland und Elsass die Gastronomie sehr lieben, waren wir maßlos enttäuscht.
Het verblijf was prima. Het hotel is al wat ouder, maar is wel gezellig. De service komt niet professioneel over, maar dat wordt ruimschoots goedgemaakt door de klantvriendelijkheid.
