Anyone from NYC will know what I mean when I say that this hotel is located in an area very similar to Hell's Kitchen. Numerous hotels with the sporadic strip club and cheap steakhouse. But what can I say? I wanted someplace close to Hauptbahnhof and walkable to city center at a reasonable price. Helvetia fit the bill handsomely. Great... More

Hotel is situated very close to the central station, close to the city center - Karlplatz is about 5 minutes walk, Marienplaz - 10 min. But the hotel's street isn't very attractive: there are a sport bar and a lap dance club on the infront of the hotel entrance (and of course windows), street is very busy and noisy during... More

A 3 star hotel close to the central station and to the center of the old town. Perfect for a short trip. The hotel is clean and staf friendly. The rooms are average but modern and clean. The breakfast is simple but sufficient and relative cheap. The neighborhood is a bit rough but no serious problems. The hotel has no... More

It was an average hotel, perfect if you just need a place to lay your head. It was decent for the price we paid. It was in a fairly good location in terms of proximity to railway. The staff was nice and it was fine for just a night. I wouldn't necessarily stay there with a family or young kids... More

We stayed here three nights during Oktoberfest 2011 so prices were pretty steep but we had a good experience! Our room was newly renovated and everything was very clean. The staff at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. The neighborhood is a bit skeezy but it is close to the train station and there are some great doner... More

Great location - 1 minute walk from one of the exits of the main train station. Escalator takes you up as well - that means if you've got roll on luggage, can pull on the escalator - which goes 2 ways. Loved the location as the trains were the local trains as well as the international train station. Easy to... More

I stayed 2 nights after a business trip and it went well. The neighborhood is a little scuzzy (casinos, strip clubs, train station) but there are also many things open late. I would definitely stay there again if the prices were at the same level as other nearby hotels. Front desk staff was very helpful.

The hotel rooms are nice, and it is renovated beautifully comparing to the price. But, there was no internet in our room. there was simply no signal, only in the hall. this was very important for us and we wanted to change the room. no other room was available. We then agreed with the person at the from desk that... More

You would not expect this to be such a stylish place from the look of the other seedy establishments near by but we were very pleased with the room and breakfast room. A stones throw from the train station, metro and trams makes it a great base to go out exploring the city from. The triple was a bit tight... More
