Geneva has been found to be the world's most expensive city after a comparison of the price of club sandwiches sold at hotels around the world.

According to Hotels.com's "Club Sandwich Index", the average cost of the classic chicken, egg and bacon sandwich was a whopping 30.45 dollars in Geneva, News.com.au reported.

The index compares prices paid by travellers at hotel restaurants in each city, and aims to give holidaymakers a sense of how expensive their destination is.

It also shows the effects of currency changes since last year.

Sydney made the top ten, coming in at number nine - down one spot from last year and just ten cents below London - with an average price of 20.53 dollars.

Last year's most expensive city, Paris - the world capital of fine dining - slipped to number two with an average sandwich going for 27.45 dollars.
