It was in the center of old town good place to stay and food also was good
Khongorzul, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Great location. You had to enter the restaurant to check in and to enter after that, we had to go through a back alley. Breakfast was included, it was fine. Beds were not comfortable. But location made it worth it.
Heather, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Unusual in that you check-in with restaurant staff. Had to duck to enter the shower. Otherwise no complaints. Staff kindly loaned me a plug adapter (Switzerland is different from Germany which I didn't realize).

Virginia, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

what a truly strange hotel. It sits on top of what looks to ne an excellent steak house yet you enter through an ummarked door in the back alley. There is no lobby, you sit at an empty table in the restaurant and fill out your registration then are hurried back into the dingy service area to an unmarked elevator and your room. The room itself isnt bad, though negotiating large suitcases requires some finesse. Our room was on the front corner so had lovely views of the small piazza outside. the bathroom was quite small bit clean- toiletries had to ne put on a window ledge on the bedroom. We were there for more than one night it may have annoyed me more; as it was I chalk it up to yet another quirky stay
Cornelius, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Basic but Reasonable for the price located right in the heart of the old town
Paul, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Property is very conveniently located in the old town.. Staff is very nice and accommodating. Breakfast was included and it was very delicious. Expect a room in an old building, very simple but clean at a reasonable price. Suitable for short stays in my opinion. There are people walking around at night, making noise, but we were not bothered by it
Gheza, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Affordable and clean

It was a bit of a walk from the train station, but not too bad as long as it's not raining. Room was clean and decent. The breakfast was continental. Buy an electrical adapter as soon as possible. What we brought from the U.S. was not compatible. Buy your Swiss travel pass at the train station upon arrival or online.
Kelly, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved our stay in Zurich, the hotel is in a perfect spot and it is nice and clean and had AC. As well as a very nice and intimate breakfast. I accidentally left an ipad in the room and the staff was so accommodating, helping me get it mailed home. I appreciate it very much.
Joel, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice place to stay in old town. Quite walkable from the trains. The place was clean and people were friendly. Cons: it’s really not a hotel, it’s Airbnb affiliated by the restaurant downstairs. There is no service desk

Zurich

Absolutely great location. No doubt. Walkable distance anywhere, city transportation around the corner. Noisy street. Windows seal the sound outside very well, but then there is no fresh air. Breakfasts could be richer and they did not vary during the stay. Staff refused to service any drinks without ordering a steak.... Next time it will be different place.
Pavel, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff was good. The hotel is in middle of Zurich old town which we already knew but what we didn’t know was we will have to smell weed whole night from the shops in the street. We couldn’t close the windows and switch on the ac because of small room and AC right above our heads. Breakfast was okay with not many options. It’s walkable to most places though
Harleen, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Just ok, worked for one night.

This was our final hotel after 8 days in Switzerland. When looking for the hotel you’re looking for a restaurant as the hotel doesn’t have a traditional lobby. It has an elevator up to the 4th floor and the room had AC. To say the bathroom is small is an understatement, check out the picture. The breakfast was just ok, and didn’t start until 7:30. The hotel is in a good location, and less than a 10 minute walk to the main train station.
Deana, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful place to stay

Wonderful little gem of a place. Had everything we needed in our comfortable and clean room. It’s in the heart of old town but the insulated windows and a/c kept the late night noise out. Fabulous location for walking to everything. Breakfast was a great layout of hot and cold treats…just what we needed to start the day exploring.
Susan, 2-night trip

Enjoyed the stay there
Deepa, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very friendly staff greeted me upon arrival and checked me in to my clean and comfortable room. Located in the heart of Old Town above a restaurant and down a cobblestone walk, this is a great option for a walkable stay (close to Kunsthaus and theatres). Breakfast was good, and the room was perfect for me as a solo traveler. Thank you!
