    central location
    easy tram access
    shower design

    The hotel is perfectly located in the city center, making it easy to visit nearby attractions, including the lovely church just a 2-minute walk away. We appreciated the convenient access to tram 4 from the train station and enjoyed a magical Christmas market just a short walk away.

    My kids wished for a better shower design.

    Should you try it? Yes or No

    Exceptional location right in the city centre! The rooftop terrace provides stunning panoramic views! Friendly staff add to the warmth of your stay!

    Air conditioning was ineffective, making nights uncomfortable! Some rooms are quite small and slanted ceilings may lead to accidents.

    room noise
    air conditioning

    central location in Old Town, unique themed rooms, well-maintained public areas

    Noise from surrounding areas can disturb sleep!!! Limited air-conditioning options make warm nights uncomfortable!!! Small room sizes feel cramped for families!!! Poor Wi-Fi connectivity causes frustration during your stay!!!

    noisy environment

    Perfect location, cozy atmosphere

    The staff's warmth was evident from check-in. We enjoyed the delightful breakfast offerings, with fresh local products tantalizing our taste buds each morning. It was great waking up to tasty options!

    However, the noise at night was a significant drawback. Being in such a central location meant we were kept awake by the lively street sounds. The bed also had an awkward positioning due to a beam overhead.

    Perfectly located but a bit noisy

    Had a nice stay for 3 nights! The location is awesome right near shops and the lake. The room had this modern vibe, and I loved the bathroom. Only thing was that it got loud at night with all the party noises outside. Also, would’ve been nice to have some English TV channels to chill out with!

    ideal location
    delightful breakfast
    small room
    lack of air conditioning
    limited tv options

    The location is ideal for exploring the city, with many attractions nearby. The room was clean and functional, though a bit small, and I appreciated the complimentary coffee available throughout my stay. Breakfast offered a delightful variety, including freshly baked breads and excellent jams. However, the lack of air conditioning made it uncomfortable at times, and the room could benefit from more amenities like English TV channels.

    heating

    It was just a great fit for a brief pit stop in Zurich, very good for the money. I really appreciated that I could check myself in when I arrived late. Make sure to look for the breakfast area on the first floor.
