We were only in Zurich for 2 days so we picked the Hotel California for location and then the price. We were quite shocked at the prices of hotels in Zurich, so this hotel could be considered 'budget' compared to others, though still not a cheap hotel! The hotel is in a great location in the old town, close to... more

Different type of place... staff available and helpful! Excellent location except the bar downstairs when they continue to live it up and we had a room above the bar one night. Ear plugs took care of that nicely. Otherwise their room Euro sized smalling area was fine and we enjoyed Zurich and the surroundings. Plenty of restos and cafes around,... more

We were really pleased with the Hotel California Zurich. Check in was a breeze with the lovely, friendly Michele at the desk who very kindly explained everything we needed to know about the hotel. The room seemed newly renovated with a great comfortable bed and nice big bath to soak in. The room was very clean and peaceful overnight (we... more

It's slightly tacky, with Eagles lyrics printed everywhere, but has character and certainly can't be accused of being bland. There is an American restaurant on the ground floor which is run by the same people as the hotel, so if you go in after about 3pm chances are noone will be at reception. You have to dial through on the... more
