This hotel was centrally located, the lobby area and Steve were very accommodating, and the bar and restaurant areas great! As it’s typical of European hotels, once you get upstairs, the hallways were narrow and uninviting, and the rooms were very small. Most of our complaints centered around the bathroom. The hand soap and the shower soap were in squeezable containers, with zero instructions. So it took us a while to figure out that the containers were appliable plastic and you had to really squeeze them in order for the soap to come down. A simple note or a diagram would have been appreciated. There were no washcloths and the towels were limited. The shower was in the tub and there was a plexiglass panel covering half the tub, the tub was very high and you had limited space in order to sit on the edge and then swing your legs over. So if you’re a little older and not as agile as you used to be, this may create a problem. There were no outlets on either bedside table, one was provided on the desk and the other in the bathroom. USB would have been welcomed. We only joined in the casual restaurant and in the lounge area. The lounge was very busy each evening and there seem to be only one server so it took a while. The breakfast were good and depending on which day you were there, you were either welcomed cheerfully and helpfully or a bit surely. The big plus is how close they are to all transportation, especially the main train station. There were many shops and restaurants

The hotel is centrally located to old town and new town. It’s adjacent to the train station and the beautiful river! The hotel accommodations are renovated and very comfortable. The restaurant is delicious and also lively in the evening with music. We went for the Christmas markets and they were easy to get to and SO WORTH it!

Great spot to stay in Zurich. Very friendly and attentive staff. The included breakfast (if you arrange for it) is a great value. Delicious buffet and you also have menu options. Staff in restaurant are excellent. Safe and pleasant walking to lots of shops. The train station nearby has an excellent Christmas market if you are visiting during the season.

This hotel is located just across the river from the train station. The adjacent area is Zürich’s main dining district and is not seedy at all as areas tend to be around train stations. There is shopping nearby on both sides of the river. We were more than happy with our room. In terms of safety, cleanliness and convenience, this hotel is hard to beat.

Absolutely loved our stay here! We booked the suite with river view and was worried about the noise but had zero problems with it at all. The hotel is centrally located near the main train station (which you must check out for the shopping/dining underground), near a lot of restaurants and shops. The staff were accommodating, kind and welcoming. Rooms were cleaned daily and fridge was stocked often. The only complaint I have is the getting out of the bathtub in the suites. It’s quite a step down and I can see someone losing their balance and it being a safety concern. They could add a handle or add a step there. My mom is older and it was a lot getting her in and out of the tub. Other than that it was an incredible stay!
