Booked the"junior suite" and were delighted with our choice. Room was large and very comfortable with a small balcony. All areas were exceptionally clean. We knew that there was no air conditioning which did not prove problematic for us, but it may have, had the weather been warmer. Breakfast was more than sufficient to start our day;bircher muesli delicious. Added... More

Walking distance from train station and Central tram stop. Not far from ETH and UZH main sites. The hotel is divided over two buildings. Rooms are large and clean with free internet access. Excellent breakfast buffet. No frills but excellent deal for the room rate. Reception desk personnel changes frequently but is usually well prepared and efficient.

We love Zurich and we love this hotel. Have tried different hotels in the same area in Zurich (5 min walk from the main train station), and this one is the best. Clean, quiet, roomy, very friendly and helpful staff, free breakfast, and free (fast) wifi. 5 min walk to the Univ. of Zurich, and 10 min walk to the... More

I wanted somewhere central, safe and clean. This is exactly what I got. The service was friendly, the breakfast was above average and the central station took me 6 minutes to walk. The inside of the room was fresh and new and the bed comfortable. Tea & coffee facilities are provided are are TV and in room safe. Sure, there... More

I have just come back from a one night stay at this hotel and it was very good. I reviewed the poor comments which related mainly to the lack of air conditioning which we didn't need as it was March. loved the hotel, the interior, the location, the service and the rooms. Had a quiet room at the back which... More

Wanted a Hotel within walking distance of Train Station. This was it---about 15 minutes, although a bit uphill at the end. Room was very clean, decent sized, staff very helpful and most important---free Wifi in the room. We slept with windows open to cool it down a bit, and it was only April---doesn't appear to have AC, as they had... More

I can't recommend this little hotel enough! It is an easy walk of less than 10 minutes from the main train station. The two buildings that comprise the hotel are impeccably neat and well-kept and the staff that I encountered were all very polite and attentive. The room that I had (#832) was small yet very charming & clean. They... More

A great hotel - room is spotless, spacious (for a big city), 10 minutes walk from the railway station, across the road from lanes chockfull of restaurants, bars and coffee shops (on account of Zurich Universitat being next door). A lovely bargain in an expensive city. the only drawback is the longer distance from the Banhofstrasse, which is the main... More
