Excellent location, right in Old Town, not far from train station. Very comfortable bed, nice shower. Very good breakfast buffet. A little bit of street noise, but mostly quiet.
No tea kettle, but there was a tea service in the lobby. The breads at breakfast were a bit stale.

good location, near lots of restaurants and shops. not too far away from the train station either. Just stayed a night on our way to Arosa but would stay here again if we needed a place in Zurich.

All the staff were very friendly and helpful. The room itself was quite comfortable but the size was a bit of a shock. It shouldn’t have been as its Zurich, but lucky I didn’t have a cat.. could not swing it. Sound proofing was pretty good too.

Traveling as a single woman, I felt safe. The location was perfect for what I was looking to do while in Switzerland.
The breakfast buffet was very good, the staff was always friendly.
Pretty much nothing.

Excellent clean hotel right on the old town centre. Book early for a great price as Zurich is not cheap. Breakfast was really good for this level of accomodation.
All good

The location was amazing—right in the heart of downtown Zurich and within walking distance of everything. The room was clean, comfortable, and had a cozy vibe. I also really appreciated the included breakfast, which was much better than expected.
Nothing major! The room was on the smaller side, but it was perfect for a short stay.

Location
I found ear plugs in the room and thought “why are this for?”
Well they were for what usually ear plugs are for - there’s party all night under the windows, good luck falling asleep, and don’t be surprised waking up from loud female laughs in the middle of the night since at the other corner of this building there is a “shady bar” looking thing with young women appearing standing at the entrance occasionally!!!

Loved the location; right smack on where tourists are supposed to be; loved their breakfast; room and bathroom good and comfortable enough compared to other European inns.
Room is quite small but can live with it

Centrally located in the old town area. Lots of places to eat nearby. Fridge in room. Breakfast spread was good with some variety.
Single room a bit small but comfortable enough. Old looking hotel as to be expected for the area. No kettle in room though tea/coffee available from foyer. Expect noise from nightlife.

On the lake, but this is on the main road which makes opening our lake view balcony windows not possible due to noise.
Old and beautiful.
Interesting navigation to get to room.

This is an older hotel, but very practical and in a fantastic location. The breakfast was excellent, and the customer service was warm and attentive.
The room was quite small, with a slanted ceiling that made it feel a bit tight, and the shower and sink didn’t drain properly, which was inconvenient.

Comfy bed, clean room, quiet at night, lovely breakfast to start the day and friendly staff. All in a great location within walking distance to most everything you want to do in Zurich. Really a great experience and I highly recommend it!

Great location near the train station and on a great street. Solid breakfast- we prefer smaller local hotels and it Met our needs. Staff was very helpful. Not fancy but what we expected.

Everything was fine (except NO air conditioning when they stated they had air conditioning), the staff was fine, the room was fine, the location was good.
One of the reasons we chose this hotel was because it had air conditioning. Except although it was early September, and it was very hot weather, apparently they intentionally turn off all of the Air Conditioning at the end of August!! So, with the windows open we were kept awake by lots of voices until 1 AM (it's a busy area) and woken up at 5 AM by delivery trucks (restaurants and a grocery store). We didn't sleep much during the 2 nights we were there. The staff didn't care as they simply blamed the management.

Central location in the pedestrian old town, very clean room and bathroom, comfortable bed, nice bedlinen. I had a quiet room on the courtyard side. Friendly and helpful staff. I was compensated for the air conditioning not working. Big buffet breakfast included in the room price. I could leave my luggage after check-out.
It was a hot day and my room was one of a few left with no air conditioning. Tiny room.

Great location in the heart of old town Zürich. Very convenient for walking to restaurants and sights around Zurich. Despite being in a loud area, the hotel was well soundproofed and very quiet. Beds were comfortable. Breakfast was made fresh and had lots of options to choose from. Front desk staff was very helpful.
Very simple room for the price paid, but that seems to be standard in an expensive place like Switzerland. Lobby smelled like cigarettes from people smoking outside.

Staff were friendly, welcoming and extremely helpful! The hotel is just a 5-10 minute walk from the train station and perfectly situated in Old Town. Walkable to everything.
Nothing to complain about. Clean, no frills hotel.

The old town location was perfect. There are so many great places to eat rith there (1-2 minute walk), like Chop Stixs and Resturant La Pasta! The hotel staff was friendly, the hotel was clean with nice size rooms, comfortable beds and a great shower. A great breakfast buffet selection was included. 5-6 minute walk from the train station and the Swiss museum.. which is a must do! Your 1 block off the river.

The location was great. Easy to walk around the Altstadt from there. Staff was very helpful. Breakfast was OK.
Hotel looks run down. Our room was small and faced the front so it was a little noisy.

The staff were wonderfully helpful and spoke English well. The location was outstanding. Old Town Zurich was exceptional and we were swamped for choice of eateries, cafes and bars. Breakfast was included and it was fresh and sufficient to start our day. Super close to transport links. Such a vibrant part of Zurich.
Loved everything.

It’s a bit loud during weekend nights, but nothing too too crazy. They provided ear plugs which was great.
