We chose Alexander to be our hotel in Zurich because it's a great combination of lovely small hotel, personal service, for reasonable pricing for Zurich and great location of 5 min to Zurich main station. In addition even the single rooms are specious (well, not to golf but... More

“Centrally located, convenient”

Reviewed 14 March 2013

I spent four nights for business. Very easy access from Zurich HauptBahnhof (main station). Just five-minutes walk! Located on narrow and clouded street, very convenient for shopping, eating or sightseeing. Staffs were polite but not so friendly. You can enjoy free Wi-Fi.Breakfast was traditional swiss style and tasty enough. I recommend this budget-friendly hotel.

A friend and I stayed at Hotel Alexander for 2 nights from 2-4 January 2013 and had a wonderful, comfortable stay in the twin room. The rooms are functional and well insulated against the street noise and the cold. The staff were very friendly and helpful!! If I ever visit Zurich again, I will definitely stay here again.

“Perfect location for all the must see's in Zurich”

Reviewed 10 January 2013

Small hotel in perfect location for Christmas markets, and all other things to see in Zurich. Perfect location for a quick stay over in Zurich and close to main train station. We booked 2 rooms, and had one with shower and one with bath (bit better for size). Good value for money and reception staff were always happy to help.

“Excellent location, small rooms”

Reviewed 28 December 2012

The location was perfect, as the hotel was close to station and city shopping. You could find lots of restaurants, bars and shops nearby. The room was a bit small, and the bathroom was even smaller than an average bathroom. Furthermore, there were no toiletries (apart from liquid soap). However the room was clean, and despite the low temperatures, warm.... More
