The staff and location are perfect. The overall property could use an upgrade. The room I was in was small and the property has no AC. Only some sort of room air flow system that was useless in the August heat. A fan was provided upon request that did help a little. I would recommend an upgrade of the facilities and include the breakfast with all rooms, but keep the staff they were amazing

Great location . Close to trains and trams and the tourist attractions of the old town . Overlooking the river. The rooms however were rather cramped and with no air-conditioning during the hot summer it was unpleasant to be in the room after midday. They did supply a fan on request but it did little to alleviate the heat of the room. We had not realised that there was air-con only in the main hotel areas and not in the individual rooms unfortunately. Breakfast was ok but was an additional cost which probably wasn't value for money

The location of the hotel was perfect for getting around the city using public transportation. The room was clean and comfortable. When we checked out there were charges on our room that weren’t ours, but the front desk resolved the problem.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Unlike the beautifully depicted rooms advertised, our room was a tiny, sloped ceiling, attic room on the top floor. The A/C was completely inadequate which necessitated us to open the window and the noise from the city below made it impossible to sleep. Towels, toiletries, and hair dryer were sub-standard. Not worth the rate we paid.

Arrived at Zurich very earliy in the morning, understand hotel checking time starting at 3:00pm, staff tried very hard for us to have a room around noon time. During our two day stay, there were no shampoo provided to our suite, other than that, we enjoyed our stay. Property is next to city's main train station, that makes it very convenient to go to other destinations by train.
