The location, if you are using the coach station for trips with Best of Switzerland or Grayline is excellent as it is just accross the road. Easy to walk to Zurich Old Town and the lake for boat trips, through the train staion and along Bahnhofstrasse. Clean hotel although a basic room it had everything I needed. Very comfortable.

Lovely modern room located steps from the train station and various museums and attractions and central to several tram lines. Concierge was very helpful at recommending places to eat and things to do. Great breakfast with breads, meats, cheeses, scrambled eggs, and hot and cold cereals, juice, coffees, etc..

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!
