Hello All-
We will be landing in Geneva Monday Morning and renting a car.
We are planning to drive downtown to the area of the university/St. Pierre Cathedral and spend a few hours in the area.
I understand the parking can be quite complicated and would like to find one spot and not have to move the car around.What do you recommend?
Also what is the parking situation by the Musee Ariana?
Thank you

Hello, and welcome to Geneva! Geneva is a small city and the airport is close to the center. The reasonable thing to do, really, is to use public transport and get your car once you are done with your business in Geneva.
But in any event : go to « Parking de Plainpalais » near the Old Town. For the Ariana, chances are not bad that you find a street parkimg place nearby along avenue de la Paix.
Hi Poncedelon,
I agree with Snowman. The main station is a 10 minute train ride from the airport. You can store your luggage there, walk into the city, and hire the car afterwards. You don’t need it until then.
