Do Not Book

Overpriced considerably and the room was not as advertised. No A/C and was very cramped. Very dated room that appeared to be untouched since 1950.

Expect more than you Expect

We actually stayed here three different times over 2 1/2 weeks. Each stay was restful, comfortable and it definitely exceeded all expectations. The breakfast offered a small but wholesome variety of foods and drinks, on par with other more expensive hotels we stayed. The staff were a joy to deal with, talkative, inquisitive and informative. The location, well, how can you beat a five minute walk from the main train station? Plus it is at the entrance to Niederdorfstrasse, the vaulted old town of Zürich.

Central position but hot hot hot rooms

Well close to train station but if you have big bags you do need to cross many tram tracks. It was about 3min walk. We had come to front door and saw 2 flights of stairs and thought oh no. However if you go around the other side they do have a door which only has 2 small steps. So we arrived reception was a little window at firat we had an older lady and she was a little rude. We left our bags as our room wasnt ready and we locked them in a hot storeroom. When we returned we had a younger lady on and she was a bit more friendly. We got our room key . Room 41 by now we were wondering what had we booked we squeezed our bags and us in a tiny lift which was very claustrophobic and away we went. Opened door to room and was suprised how clean it was and quite roomy. It had a full bath tub and a queen bed . However it felt like a sauna no air-conditioning and no fridge. We went down stairs and put our medication in a fridge in the restaurants kitchen . The tv was hopeless as soon as we changed channel it said no signal so we just turned it off and opened the window. This was a highlight great view and could people watch from window. They did give a fan however it kept turning itself down we had it on high but over course of night it would turn to night mode and turn itself down we would wake in a later of sweat. Wifi was good. Was happy we only stayed 1 night on passing through Zurich. Very central to trains and a supermarket across the road. Probably wouldnt stay again.

Great stay, super close to the central rail. A little noisy but that’s the price for being so central. Having a little bar fridge in the room would have helped. Staff are great, building is older but clean and comfortable. Would 100% go back.

The room was tiny and cozy, but unfortunately the stay was uncomfortable due to a few issues. There is no air conditioning, and during our stay in mid-August the room became unbearably hot at night. A fan was provided, and we had to open the window for air, but the noise from passing cars (even at 3 a.m), made it nearly impossible to sleep the first night. Even with all the windows closed, we could still clearly hear loud car noises from the street. Another inconvenience was the lack of a refrigerator, so any food or drinks had to be consumed right away. On the positive side, the location is excellent, directly in front of the tram and train stations, across from the Zurich National Museum, and with a supermarket just across the street. Overall, while the location is great, the combination of the tiny room, heat, and noise made the stay unpleasant during summer season.

Perfectly average.

Our stay was perfectly fine, I will reiterate another’s review- it was very expensive for how perfectly fine it was. Outlets were shaped so that our adapter (that worked everywhere else) didn’t fit. No AC (which was known).
