The most charming boutique hotel ♥️
This charming boutique hotel is located in the heart of Old Town with very access to the tram and walking distance to the must see sites including museums. I loved my king room that had the feel of home with under lighting and bay windows overlooking the cobble stone court yard. Equipped with an upscale Nespresso machine with complimentary sodas and juice, including chilled glasses. The attention to detail was phenomenal which also included every size electrical adapter in the desk. Zurich id now my new Paris primarily because of this charming hotel that I plan to return yearly.

We LOVED our stay! If I could give the staff more than five stars I would - they were all absolutely wonderful, helpful, friendly, and accommodating. The hotel itself is very cool, and we made a lot of use of our balcony. I would stay again if I am in Zurich.

Beautiful 3 day stay in Zurich
Wonderful room and it was perfect for 2 people. Quick check in & the mini bar was a nice touch.. This hotel is right in the middle of all the restaurants and shops. It’s about a 10 minute easy walk from the train. We will stay here again!!!!

Such a lovely little hotel with delightful and helpful staff. Our room was quite spacious and immaculately clean with comfortable beds. It is close to all public transportation and very walkable. It also has an elevator for those that might not be able to navigate the steps.

I agree with the commens i saw before booking this hotel. The place is ok the staff helpful but the noise around the property is terribly. Unless you don't mind the noise or you're super tired ....getting some rest here can be a challenge.
