Nice hotel in a great location. Wish the room had a/c or a fan because it got hot even with open windows.

The front staff, especially one in particular, Duygu(not sure of spelling) was exceptional. She answered every question, gave many suggestions and greeted us warmly each time she saw us. What an asset to that hotel.

This was a terrible hotel. The room was too small to even move around. There is no sound proofing and it was too noisy from outside even with the windows closed. The bed was very uncomfortable and small. It's just a waste of money to stay here.

Nous sommes restés quatre nuits au Franziskaner en avril 2026. La chambre est très propre, moderne, compact mais comprend tout le nécéssaire pour cuisiner. La salle de bain est grande, bien éclairée, très fonctionnelle. L’hôtel est bien situé dans le vieux quartier Niederdorf de Zürich, à proximité de la gare centrale, de musées et d'une très grande offre de restaurants et de boutiques. Le personnel est courtois et attentif. L’édifice est bien insonorisé et si on garde les fenêtres fermées, c’est bien tranquille. Il faut savoir que les fenêtres donnent sur une cour intérieure où se trouve les terrasses de quelques restaurants et donc il y a de la musique et du bruit jusqu’à environ minuit et aussi tôt le matin lorsque le secteur est nettoyé. À part ce bémol nous avons apprécié cet établissement et n’hésitons pas à le recommander.
