We stayed at the Bar Hotel Roessli for two nights at the end of December. We booked this hotel for its location in Zurich and its affordable price. The taxi dropped us off and we lugged our suitcases up the short alleyway to the hotel. We squeezed into the small lobby where check-in was a breeze and we were able... more

Just back from a weekend at Bar Hotel Roessli. Went over to watch Aston Villa play a friendly against FC Zurich.This was the only reasonably priced place in central Zurich available at 10 days' notice via the website I used, but decided to trust previous Tripadvisors' comments and was NOT disappointed. Thanks Tripadvisors! We were in Room 015 which was... more

My family & I rented the penthouse apartment suite on the top floor. It's quite expensive, but I was there for a week on business and needed the space. The furnishings are ultra modern - so if you're looking for Victorian, forget this place. Huge living area, nice kitchen, rather small second bedroom but adequate, 2 bathrooms, great rooftop terrace... more

After reading so many reviews on this site we still were having trouble choosing a hotel in central Zurich - we wanted something hip and clean in a part of town where we could walk to everything, including the old part of the city and the wonderful lakefront areas. Enter the Roessli. We knew immediately when we pulled up (which... more

This hotel is in a side-street to the river. Located between Central and Bellevue (near Helmhaus tram stop), it is a brilliant and affordable hotel in a city which has hotels offering poor value for money. Helpful staff Simple, but sufficient breakfast (free of charge) Clean room with boutique-style bathroom amenities The only thing I was missing in the room... more

I stayed at this hotel for 2 nights. The hotel is right in the heart of Old Town Zurich, and steps away from the river and Lake Zurich. Very clean rooms, albeit sterile (if you like the color white and dark wood paneling, this is for you). Very nice breakfast served each morning. Pros: Price (for Zurich, this was a... more

Ultra small but über friendly. The cab couldn't take us to the front door because the street was too small, and that had us all a little nervous about the hotel, which is sandwiched in between the buildings. The reception area was tiny. The elevator (a plus, they had one) basically fit one person and one bag, but once in... more

I stayed here one night. The location was perfect -- easy walking distance to both day and nightime activities. The hotel has two buildings. A main building with rooms and the lobby, bar and restaurant. And a building across the street, on a corner. I sayed in the building across the street. My room was beautiful (small) well lit, hardwood... more

The room was clean but small for 2 people and luggage. The best part though was the large bathroom, which had a tub and shower. The hotel is centrally located, about a 15 minute walk to the train station, or a quick streetcar ride away. Very easy to get around and is right in the heart of old town, so... more
