Fantastic place to stay

Very helpful staff & nice breakfast. Tripadvisor excursion to Jungfrau was terrible. Location is somewhat inconvenient, but the tram will get you all around Zurich. Great coffee. Noisy church bell nearby rings too much.

Date of stay: September 2018

Tiny rooms

So tiny, you have to climb over your stuff. So tiny, you can barely lean back on the chair. So tinny, that if you are a little wider around the waist, you might want to go elsewhere... Breakfast is OK, but I have had better in Europe. Favorite plus: Espresso maker in the room…

Alexandra is the best!

Not only was our room comfortable and unique, but Alexandra at the front desk saved our trip! I lost my phone in a cab and she called all the cab companies and got my phone back safe and sound. Great!

We slept here for one night in the middle of the week (business dbl room). The room was clean and big enough, but noisy for some ppl due to the tram running next to the hotel (I didn't mind but some in our party did). The matress and pillows were excellent however, not those…

Excellent hotel, pity about the staff

The hotel itself is very nice, on a tram line, close to the city center. Rooms are spacious, well decorated and well equipped. Tow problems: that staff that behaves like prison staff and a tiny little elevator that leaves you waiting for hours.

Hi... is all rooms has aircon? If not all room has them, can we reserved that one that has?

They have those mobile air-con which works out well. We were there in August and we don't find the room too hot. (My husband usually can't sleep in a room without air-con so if he's OK most people would be fine.)
