Great location and stay
Walking distance to the station Zurich HB. Hotel is clean and has lift to help load up our heavy luggage up to the 5th floor. Our room is a family room. It’s spacious. Converted a sofa bed into a queen size bed for our teen son. Has kitchenette and small dining area if you feel like eating at home. Hotel has a restaurant but we didn’t dine there. Offers 1 free breakfast for each room. Can request to store luggage if checking out early to roam the city and collect before 5pm. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend!

Lovely hotel, niche and cute. This is a boutique hotel, so no trappings of usual commercial establishment. Pros and cons to that. Cons: very small room. Pros: everything else.

Central location within walking distance of all the clean, safe Zurich sites. Some crazies shouting around the hotel when we arrived, but the staff were exceptional, the room spacious, the floors heated. Thick twice before you upgrade for the breakfast "buffet." There is no value other than to sit in the extremely cool restaurant. A great stay for a good price. For three nights, a bargain.

Highly recommend!!
Our stay here was wonderful! We requested an early check-in ahead of time and they were able to accommodate our request, which we greatly appreciated so that we could nap after our long flight in. The room, although a little smaller than we're used to being from the US, was clean and well set-up with a little balcony for us to enjoy. The staff was very responsive and helpful with all questions and requests. We also loved that the location was walking distance to Old Town, where we loved exploring the area for it's beautiful buildings and restaurants. It's also only a 10min walk to the main train station if you're planning to check out several cities while staying in Switzerland. Overall we enjoyed our stay, and would definitely stay here again :)
