Guest Reviews
- guenda1 (8/5): - La location è davvero spettacolare, dopo una giornata in fiera al Palexpo, questo ambiente rigenera ed è estremamente rilassante in mezzo alla natura alle porte della città. PACE ASSOLUTA . È stato ristrutturato da poco per cui ci sono ancora delle cose da ultimare, ma già siamo a livelli ottimi. Suggerisco di inserire qualche variante nei dolci per il resto la colazione è semplice ma con prodotti di ottima qualità. Pulizia super.
- Teresa (8/5): Charmant et apaisant - Le confort et le charme du lieu Peu de choix au petit déjeuner pour la préparation des œufs
- Beatrice (6/5): -

- Turini (10/5): Atypique et loin des inconvénients du centre ville. - J’ai adoré ce lieu atypique et authentique. L’emplacement de ces jardins et champs parsemés d’animaux, au milieu de cette immense unité d’habitation classée m’a transportée par son constructeur mis aussi son unité. Il y a une nature verdoyante aux côté de ces bâtis, avec mon fils nous avons eu le plaisir de nous balader dans la nature environnante, il y a même tout à côté des installations sportives, une vie citoyenne et sportive, ainsi qu’une passerelle qui surplombe le Rhône. Il faut voir ce lieu je le trouve incroyable, non loin du centre de Genève. Merci également pour les produits locaux délicieux et légumes de la propriété. 🙏🏻

- Wibbles (9/5): Terrific peaceful, comfortable VFM and great breakfast. - This small hotel in Lignon is peaceful and the manager Clare is fabulous. Friendly, super helpful and attentive. The room was everything I needed , comfortable, quiet, clean with a comfy bed and fresh air. Well priced and convenient for public transport and the Lignon shops. A bonus is the walk along the river Rhone. A very different side of Geneva - wonderful - forget the 4 Seasons this is the place for me!

- Pietro (7/5): Cette adresse a tout pour plaire ! Il manque juste l’envie d’accueillir. Dommage. - Le compromis ville campagne Le manque d’accueil
- Michel (8/5): -
- Simon (8/5): Unkompliziert, ruhig, aussergewönlich und sehr angenehm. - So nah an der Stadt einen so friedlichen und ruhigen Ort zum übernachten zu haben war super. Es war schade, dass es kein Selbstbedienungsladen auf dem Hof gibt.
Am Wochenende wird kein Frühstück angeboten.

- Marina (9/5): für ein paar Tage prima - Die Lage war super. Ganz leicht ist man mit dem sehr guten öffentlichen Verkehrsnetzwerk an der Unterkunft und in Genf. Das Zimmer und das Bad waren sehr sauber. Neu renoviertes Gebäude. Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal! Steckdosen waren nur für schmale Elektrogeräte ausgerichtet. Das Zimmer war ziemlich klein - dennoch ausreichend für ein paar Tage. Abends ist das Zimmer etwas hellhörig gewesen (Fernseher waren deutlich zu hören)
- Maureen (8/5): -
- Gaby (10/5): - Sehr schön inszeniertes Bauernhaus. Sehr gut geschlafen. - alles top
- Stefano (10/5): - Un lieu vrai, avec un engagement écologique sincère
La directrice a été d'une gentillesse magnifique Rien
- Antonio (10/5): -
- Andrew (9/5): - This is a wonderful place! Right on the river, great views to the mountains on the other side, you can get a bus into town in less than 20 minutes, or you can walk along the river down to the Lake or all the way to Chancy and France if you like. It can be tricky to find at night (google maps is not especially helpful) so get a taxi or arrive during the day. The staff were brilliant - thank you Claire!
- Oliver (9/5): Farm life close to the city -
- corentin (9/5): -

- Claudio (9/5): -
- Arnaud (2/5): - The mattress Small room
No windows only velux

- Léo Taillard (9/5): -
- Manuel (10/5): - Wonderful farm feeling and relaxing location. Large vegetable garden with bio produce.
Closeby hikings in the woods along the Rhone river are fantastic.
Easy bus transportation to city centre.
Interesting very large LeCorbusier housing building that gives a flabergasting contrast with the farm.
- Urs (10/5): -
- Luckin (10/5): -
- MARC (9/5): - Établissement situé en pleine nature alors qu'on est à deux pas de la ville. Un vrai dépaysement.
- David (8/5): - Cadre agréable, calme, avec promenades au bord du Rhône à proximité. Temperature élevée dans la chambre.
- Carine (9/5): -
- Sofia (10/5): A peaceful spot close to everything - I recently stayed at this property and had a very pleasant experience. Although I didn’t have the chance to meet the staff in person, communication was always clear and efficient — they provided all the information and instructions I needed to access the property and answered my questions promptly.
The rooms were clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated, making my stay very enjoyable. The location is excellent: quiet and peaceful, yet only a short drive from both Geneva city center and the airport.
Overall, a great choice for anyone looking for convenience, comfort, and a calm atmosphere near Geneva. For my personal taste, the bed was a bit too soft, but if you prefer softer mattresses, it’s actually ideal.
- Gaelle (8/5): La campagne à la ville - L’endroit.
petite ferme, au centre de Genève.
Un endroit magnifique complètement décalé par rapport au quartier et à l’animation de la ville Rien
- Natasha (10/5): - Trevlig personal,bra bemötande,rent o fint i rummet,sköna ,bekväma sängar,lätt att man tar sig med buss till centrum .
Kan varmt rekommendera .

- christine (9/5): -
- Florian (5/5): Viel zu teuer - Schönes Ambiente, sehr gepflegt, originell im Bauernhof Weit ab jeglicher Infrastruktur, kein Frühstück.
- Ferdinando Claudio (6/5): - Tranquillo e circondato da molto verde. La cortesia della receptionist. La pulizia. Negli orari previsti di apertura della reception è stato necessario chiamare e attendere l'addetta più volte. La colazione a 17€ un po' povera anche se i prodotti offerti erano molto buoni.

- Ladislav Šolc (8/5): -
- Emilie (7/5): - Au calme, et dans un coin de nature, à proximité de Genève Pas de petit déjeuner le week end
- Peter (7/5): Gute Übernachtungsmöglichkeit ohne besondere Ansprüche. - Es fehlte ein Haarföhn, aber wir haben dann nicht danach gefragt. Der unmittelbare Aussenbereich wenig gepflegt.
- xu (10/5): - Thank you so much,see you next time! Please knock the door first when someone want to come in during cleaning time
- M (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent home made milk products for breakfast and very kind staff regarding our late check-in.
- Toby (9/5): Lovely peaceful clean place to stay - Very clean and room has everything you would need in there. Location right near bus stop, river and green spaces. Could have had AC as the top floor was very warm
- Idrizi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Karen (9/5): Beautiful property, lovely, welcoming staff, great breakfast. - Beautiful, characterful property- an oasis of calm in the city. Gorgeous breakfast using local produce. Lovely room. The customer service is excellent. I had lots of recommendations on travel routes and places to visit. Highly recommend.
- Wei (10/5): Very clean room, excellent location on a real farm - The room is spacious, spotless, and very comfortable. Cleaning services are provided every day (although the bedsheets are changed once a week for ecological reasons). The kettle and coffee machine were also very useful. Highlight of the stay? Definitely how friendly and welcoming the host, Claire, is.
The hotel is located on a farm, I absolutely enjoyed seeing the pigs, donkeys, goats, rabbits and chickens ❤️❤️❤️ (The animals are kept at a distance from the hotel, so there is certainly no concern about noise or whatnot.)
It is also conveniently located a 2-minute walk from a shopping centre, where you can find a Co-op and two restaurants open until 22:30. There is also a McDonald’s across the road, right at the bus stop that takes you to city centre. Public transport is free: just remember to ask for the free Geneva transport card.
Upon the advice of the host, I went for a swim in the Rhône, a 10 minute walk from the farm - it was a pleasure to take a dip in the river that inspired Van Gogh’s famous painting “Starry Night Over The Rhone”.
All in all, a peaceful stay that offered breathtaking views of the mountains and showed me a different side of Geneva! None at all.
- Chiung (10/5): A very good choice for staying near the Geneva Airport - The B&B’s location is perfect for any travelers who wish for a tight sleep in tranquil area and enjoy the view of countryside while remaining close to the airport. The bed is very comfortable. The breakfast, although not with quite the variety, does have very good quality. Many items are as fresh as just being picked from their own farm.
And Claire was super thoughtful and helpful in assisting us with information about transportation from the airport and to the downtown area. I didn’t need it, but l noticed that there was no hairdryer in the room.
- Sweta (10/5): Exceptional -
- Hannah (10/5): Perfect for what we wanted. - It was clean and the staff were really friendly. It was near a bus stop so really easy to access the city centre, especially with the Geneva transport card. The surroundings are beautiful and so quiet.
- Randy (1/5): Miserable all night long , definitely would not recommend - Nothing Many European accommodations do not have air conditioning but do provide a portable a/c unit. They have neither. Owner brought up a misting fan but it did not help. Booking.com says breakfast available but they do not have breakfast on weekends which makes no sense. There are no places to eat. Exterior doors are open all night and this location is not safe.
- Taso (6/5): Pleasant -
- Guo (9/5): Superb -
- Brambaifa (1/5): Bad -
- Lena (9/5): Very nice, welcoming guest rooms in an old farm house - Thank you so much for the amazing stay. The Ferme du Lignon was very uncomplicated and comfortable. The host was very friendly and the perfectly clean rooms were beautiful and contained everything you might need. The guest rooms are situated in a newly renovated farmhouse and on an actual farm. The surroundings are very calm and green despite being only 15 minutes away from the city centre. (You can get a transport card for Geneva and use buses for free). The only negative thing was that the walls are not very sound proof and our neighbor watched TV until late at night. I would recommend to simply bring some ear plugs because otherwise it is an amazing place to stay at.
- Henning (9/5): Great personal and owners. - Great breakfast. Very gentle hosts and very informative. My room had very high placed windows without out view unless you stood on a chair! - I didn't know. But still a great stay.
- Gloria (9/5): A great hotel alternative let’s one see a part of Geneva one wouldn’t normally see - Interesting location No breakfast at the weekend but we know it’s good because we had it before!
- Olga (10/5): Exceptional - If you want peace and quiet after a hard day without the excessive noise of the city, but at the same time be mobile enough, this place is ideal. Courteous and friendly staff who will answer all questions, as well as a convenient transport interchange, nearby there are bus stops to the city center and airport, grocery stores and a small cafe to enjoy. A very comfortable, cozy and peaceful place in nature in the city
- Daniel (7/5): Good -
- Lokolile (8/5): Very good - A very interesting guest inside a farm, which provided free learning to guests
- Nats (8/5): Very good -
- Natalie (9/5): Superb - The location was perfect, not to far from the city center, and it was easy to get to everywhere by bus, the room was exceptional exceeding our expectations from a comfy bed, modern bathroom and a nice view of the farm.
- Nicolai (10/5): Exceptional -
- Thomas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Alessandro (9/5): Great location in a natural and green area of Geneva. - It is in a great location, immersed in a green area of Geneva near le Bois du Frere. With different bus options, you can reach the city centre in 25 minutes. The staff is very supportive and available to help with your needs. Rooms are very clean and well equipped with a coffee machine. The bed was very comfortable, and the place was silent.
- Ming (8/5): Simple and comfortable - Enough space to open my luggage. The quilt is very warm. The room should have another table so that the laptop can be placed and plugged in.
- Jean (10/5): An enjoyable short stay - Conveniently located - nearby shopping centre with restaurants, close to the city but with pleasant rural walks from the farm. Would definitely recommend.
- Аidan (10/5): Exceptional - The stuff was very friendly, contacted via WA immediately and gave clear instructions. The facilities were great, the place is unique, a farm inside a city. Would recommend it 100%.
- May (10/5): Really enjoyed my stay, I would visit again. -
- Russell (8/5): Very good -
- Wouter (9/5): Excellent service, very good breakfast - A beautiful historic farm house in the city
- Keri (10/5): A charming and unique urban farm stay – just 15 minutes from the airport. - We were looking for an alternative to the usual business hotel for a one-night stay near Geneva Airport and were fortunate to discover La Ferme du Lignon – a lovely bed and breakfast style stay located within an old working farm on the banks of the Rhône River. Rooms are beautifully and tastefully renovated, comfortable and spotlessly clean. The in-room Nespresso coffee machine/pods, kettle/tea bags, and wine glasses (buy a bottle from the onsite market shop) were a nice touch, although there are a few restaurants, a McDonald's, and a supermarket within a 10-minute walk.
The host, Stefan, was super helpful and friendly and easy to communicate with via WhatsApp – keep an eye out for head farm cat "Marius," a very handsome white and ginger boy. We didn't use the free public transport pass or have the buffet breakfast, but Stefan mentioned both were options for guests. Yes, La Ferme du Lignon is framed in part by views of the world-famous Le Lignon housing development (essentially a town within a town designed by architect Georges Addor), but it does not detract from the peaceful nature, ambiance, or charm of the property. n/a
- Annalissa (10/5): Excellent experience! Beautiful stay in a quaint atmosphere - Beautiful stay in a quaint atmosphere. Lovely walks on the Rhône river and yogurts from the farm. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable and the staff went out of their way to accommodate. Easy distance from the airport and a grocery store is a 3 minute walk. Excellent experience!
- Lily (9/5): Superb - The bedroom was very comfortable. The shower facility was amazing. Located very close to a bus stop which can take you to the airport or the center in 10 - 20 mins. Staff were lovely and very helpful. The price for breakfast was too high for what you get.
- Nicolai (10/5): Exceptional -
- Thomas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nikita (10/5): Lovely place for short stay - Small farm in a big city. Convenient location near the airport. Friendly and attentive staff. Quiet place in general and beautiful views. None of our concerns were left unresponded. All good 😊
