Hotel is very close to the main train station with easy access to all the main tourist attractions in Zurich. There is a Starbucks next to the hotel if you like American style coffee drinks. I would recommend the hotel if you are looking for a reasonably priced hotel for a short stay in Zurich.

Nostalgic visit

This is one of the cleanest hotels that we have ever stayed in. Staff very friendly, breakfast was very nice with plenty of choice. We just had to ask for extra pillows as we only had one each.

This hotel is excellent. It’s very centrally located so you can easily walk to District 1 and the Old City. When we stayed here, I didn’t need to call a car or take public transport at all—very walkable. Rooms are spacious and clean with comfy beds and heavy down duvets. Bathrooms have heated towel racks. Staff is friendly.

The staff were so friendly and helpful, the breakfast buffet was fantastic, and we couldn’t have had a better location to access the train station, Christmas market, and Landesmuseum. The tran station was steps away as well. Beds were comfortable and blankets were so warm and cozy. Great stay!

Liked: Cleanliness

Decent value but would not stay again

The people at the reception were cold and borderline rude (typical German/swiss). The room did not look anything like the online pictures when we made our reservation. The bathrooms are tiny, and if you have a 3rd person in your room, they are better off getting their own room as our room had a pull out sofa which was hard and uncomfortable.
