Zurich is probably one of the most expensive cities in Europe and this hotel offers and affordable, central location in the old town. A short walk from the main station and many of Zurich's historical sights, the Altstadt Hotel is currently completing refurbishments. When I arrived the scaffolding was a bit off-putting, but the hotel was comforable and quiet and... more

We were delighted to find this boutique hotel! We travel frequently and are used to all sorts of accommodations. This hotel had huge windows that opened to a quiet cobblestone street. It was clean, artful, and exceeded our expectations in every way. We were concerned about no air conditioning (I hate the heat!). Mgmt gave us a fan (it went... more

I was just there for a week on a business trip. The place is very clean, beds are comfortable and conveniently located. You can walk everywhere in the old town from there and there is a tram stop just a half block away. As in all downtown hotels in European cities, your sleep will be the victim of noisy drunks... more

We stayed here because a relative was getting married near by and because a lot of us stayed here our relative was able to negotiate a better price (CHF 190.00 for one of the better rooms). To be honest the hotel was funky and it had all the making of a pretty good three stars, were it not for the... more

The location of the hotel is definitely it's best asset. You just have to walk out of the door to experience the bustling, lively atmosphere of the pedestrian zone/old town center of Zurich with all its bars and restaurants. I stayed two nights in a "modern standard room" on the 3rd floor. The room was small and only equipped with... more

We stayed at the Alstadt Hotel because someone from Zurich recommended it to us. I would stay there again but not in the summer. I thought that the rooms were cute and charming. Each room is decorated by a different artist and they all have that Bauhaus feel to them which I like. Our room even had a painting on... more

I stayed at Hotel Altstadt for 3 nights in February 2005, and was very happy with the experience. The bar downstairs was definitely smokey, and the smell drifted through the lobby and in the upstairs hallways a bit, but my room did not smell like smoke at all. It's possible that the windows that seperate the bar from the hotel... more

We stayed at this hotel for just one night in Sept. 2003. The location was good, about a ten minute walk from the main train station. The room, however, was very smokey, since the the ventilation from the hotel's cafe downstairs, seemed to go right upstairs to the hotel rooms. The beds were clean and the staff was nice. The... more
