The staff were so helpful. We were able to get an early check in which was wonderful after our long flight from Australia. They also stored one of our bags to make the train travel easier with less luggage. They certainly deserve five stars from us.

Good hotel in nice area, easy access to shops, transport and all amenities. Hotel unmanned after 5pm was unexpected.

8/10 Very good

The room was great and the free breakfast a real bonus with plenty of choice. The only downside was the levels of noise. I could hear the room next door using the bathroom and the person above me walking around. Thankfully the noise was during the evening and not at night, so I managed a good night's sleep in the comfortable bed. I would stay again but maybe take earplugs.

A fantastic stay! Perfectly located within easy walking distance of both the old and new town, with tram and bus stops right outside. The bed and linens were the best l've ever experienced, and the super-soft, fluffy towels were a real treat. There's also a gorgeous bakery just opposite. The staff were wonderfully friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was delicious, plenty of choice and available from 0700-1000. Highly recommended!
Lovely room with on suite, coffee machine, mini bar (you have to pay) and a safe
Amazing perfectly made beds, room very clean and cosy

Room modern and had everything we needed. Breakfast had a good selection of items, plus coffee very good! Location good, uphill but only a 20 minute walk from train station. Check in was complicated but once inside the hotel the staff on the phone (no one there in person) sorted it for us.

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.

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.

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)

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.

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.

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.
