I stayed 4 nights at this hotel in a single room. As others had stated the issue of walls sound-proofing , I requested for a room not facing the street. I had no problem with the noises from the cars, however, I could somehow hear my neighbor snoring (who snored loudly). They fixed the issue of temperature control by employing... More

We booked this hotel for 3 nights while we were visiting a friend that works in the city. The location was perfect for our needs, just 15mins walk to the centre or less than 5 on the tram and across the road from a well stocked co-op. Shamelessly, none of our party could speak any meaningful German, but the staff... More

We got an amazing two-bedroom penthouse suite with nice bathroom and separate lounge for a very affordable price (by Swiss standards). The room far exceeded our expectations. However, the receptionist was very rude, smart and unfriendly, which spoiled our stay. We chose not to eat the hotel's breakfast as it was very expensive.

The location of hotel is very comfortable. The center of the city is accesible with tram 2 and 3 in 10 minutes.I felt the absolute cleanliness of the room on a daily basis, the friendliness and the perfect staff service. The noise from the main road, when you open the window, is an disadvantage and also when the other customers... More

I’ve chosen the Hotel Olympia based on its price and its location. As I was aware of the almost insanely sky high hotel prices in Zurich but even so didn’t want to pay an arm and a leg for a room I first did a long and thorough search on various travel booking sites for a budget priced hotel located...

Switzerland is expensive and most accommodation is predictably so. This place is clean, vanilla and a no thrills type of place. All of the tourist sites are a long walk through the red light district however, it is easily accessible by the no. 2 and no.3. tram. There is a Co-Op across the street for simple breakfasts, etc. Worth a... More
