An Unforgettable Swiss Getaway with Exceptional Comfort and Convenience ​My wife and I spent a wonderful week at HOTEL illuster - Urban & Local from September 23 to 29, 2026, and it proved to be the ideal base for exploring Switzerland. ​From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by how comfortable, impeccably clean, and well-maintained the hotel was. The entire team was exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and attentive to our needs. ​The hotel’s location is fantastic—its close proximity to the train station made our daily travels incredibly smooth and practical. Thanks to the efficient Swiss rail network, we had seamless connections to the airport, downtown Zurich, and various breathtaking destinations across the country, allowing us to deeply experience Switzerland's extraordinary nature and charming cities. ​We are thoroughly satisfied with our stay, our room, and the excellent service. We would gladly return and highly recommend HOTEL illuster to anyone visiting the region.

the staff were very helpful. I found the room to be too hot even with the windows open. The mattress was very comfortable.

Better to stay when not so hot out!

Make sure you check in before 9 pm. Hard to get into hotel without a key. Unfortunately we were there during a somewhat of a heat wave and didn’t realize there would be no air conditioning and very slow fan. However breakfast was great, staff was friendly and a convenient location.

Hotel with a nice Garden

The breakfast is poorer and could be improved a little bit. I see it the same since 9 years already. Otherwise the Hotel is great, after the renovation. Spacious rooms, a lot of light due the big window. Really nice garden on the top of the shops, a place where you can relax a bit after a long day. The Mall is right below of you, with many shopping possibilities.

Location is fine in Uster. Hotel close early and no option for food/drink at the hotel. No gym. But if you need to stay in Uster its ok level.

We had a lovely stay at Hotel Illuster. It was a last minute booking as we had arrived in Switzerland and did not like our original accommodation we booked (another hotel) so got online and found this one instead. The receptionists were welcoming and helpful. The hotel is on top of a shopping mall and we parked underneath the mall. We had to pay a small charge at the hotel to park there. The hotel is in a nice area with quite a few shops and restaurants. Not far from the hotel is the countryside and mountains and we had a great time exploring the surrounding area. Our room had a balcony and the view was pretty good. The hotel was clean and quiet.
