PAUL, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Friendly staff and very helpful. Full breakfast with a wide range of good food for all discerning travellers. Highly recommended. Easy walk down to old town and central station but if you have heavy luggage I advise to take a tram. If in the morning buy a Zürich day pass for transport and museums etc.

I liked that it is close to Zurich Station. The staff are friendly and kind. The room was clean and equipped with all toiletries such as shampoo, shower gel, and soap."
Dilnura, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Some practical details need to be fixed. No power switch next to the bed (or anywhere else in the room except the entrance) in room 108. Easy to install wireless power switches these days. Bathroom cleanliness must be improved, lots of talk.
Cedric, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

A decent hotel stay

The hotel was well placed just outside the centre of Zurich. The room was good but the bathroom was a little on the small side. The room had good facilities. The breakfast was nice and a decent selection. There was also a few nice touches like having coffee and water available all day.
Richrd, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property was located in the beautiful area with plenty of amenities. The only downside of my stay was the lack of conditioning ( which is common in Europe during summers)
Ernest, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Lack of staff

There was a lack of staff after 5pm, ie no staff at all, so when we arrived at 11:30pm we could not even gt in, let alone check in. Luckily someone let us in and we contacted the staff by a helpline.
Rachael, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Nice stay in Zurich

Great area of Zürich to walk into the city. Small, but clean rooms. Good breakfast spread. It was very warm in the room, even though they provided a mobile fan.
Abby, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

nice , compact and good location

The rooms are small, but the staff is helpful and willing to solve problems. The hotel's location is excellent—right next to a tram and bus line, and just a short walking distance from Zurich's main train station. The breakfast is simple. There is no air conditioning in the rooms, and the fan doesn't always help.

Kim, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

A pleasant stay

It’s a nice little boutique hotel in a good neighborhood. Easy transportation right outside makes it easy to access. The hotel itself is what you would expect from a 3-star accommodation. The room was nice and tidy, although the tv didn’t work or could not be started (there was no manual to be found). The breakfast was a little too cheap I think, beside yoghurt there wasn’t much to choose from. No bacon or sausages for the scrambled eggs, no ham or similar to the toast etc.
Robin, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

We got to the hotel during hot weather. As instructed online, I called the property the day before we checked in to ensure there would be portable AC in the room. However, we were told only fan is available in the 90+ degree weather. We could not sleep during the nights. Won’t stay here again.
Weiying, 2-night trip

Check in was a disaster

Check in was a disaster as no body there after 5pm tried to check in using there computer system wouldn’t recognise booking number had to call them online they told me the booking number from hotel.com was different to Expedia they gave me the Expedia number to check in it took over 15 minutes to complete check in then I find they charged my card for the stay which I had already paid in July had to contact them again to get reimbursed I am still out of pocket due to the transaction fees charged another traveler behind us wasn’t happy either with the check in procedure
