I found this hotel to have a great location, just a short walk from the train station. The rooms are quite spacious and tidy, providing all the standard amenities expected from a 3-star hotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful, contributing positively to my stay. However, the breakfast selection could use more variety, especially for vegetarian options, and some services felt a bit lacking in warmth.

I had a nice stay at this hotel, enjoying its central location near the train station and decent breakfast options. The rooms were tidy but quite small, making them a bit cramped, especially with the church bells ringing late at night. The service was excellent, with friendly staff that made me feel welcome. Overall, it was a good value for the price, but the noise from the bells can be quite disruptive during the night.

I found this hotel to be a mixed bag. The service was exceptional, with friendly staff eager to help. However, the rooms were on the smaller side, and the lack of air conditioning made for a somewhat uncomfortable stay, especially with the noise from outside. On the plus side, the location was quite convenient, making it easy to access various attractions. Overall, it was a decent experience, but there are definitely areas for improvement.

The rooms were small, but adequate for a single person. Unfortunately, there was no air conditioning, which forced us to keep the windows open, leading to noise from the traffic in the morning.

The hotel offered some decent facilities, but nothing really stood out as remarkable. It would be great to see more amenities like a gym or pool.

The hotel has a great location, right on a pedestrian square and close to many grocery stores and transport links. However, my experience was impacted by the room's layout and noise issues, especially since there was no air conditioning. The staff was friendly and accommodating, but some interactions were less than pleasant. Overall, it offers decent value for money, but there are definitely areas that could use improvement.

My room faced a church, and the bells rang every 15 minutes from 6 am until midnight, which made it quite unbearable during the summer. It was located right at the top with a sloping ceiling and only a tiny window for ventilation, so it felt cramped. There was no AC, forcing me to keep the windows open and leading to disturbances from traffic noise.
Service

Most of the staff were friendly and managed to conjure up a cup of tea for me when I was freezing cold after returning from the stadium. However, I did have one encounter with a particularly rude staff member which really soured the experience.

Breakfast was alright but nothing special. While the coffee and croissants were great, I think they could really benefit from including more options like fish and muesli.

The facilities were basic, but everything was clean. It felt a bit dated, and I think they could use a refresh in some areas.

I had a nice stay at the hotel, which is cozy and located in a quiet area behind a mini mall. The rooms are on the smaller side, but they are clean and generally comfortable for a short stay. The staff provided professional service and was very attentive to my needs. On the downside, the distance from downtown Zurich might not be ideal for everyone, and the rooms could feel cramped if you're planning to stay for longer than a few days.

Rooms

The rooms were small, about 10 feet wide by 12 feet long, which could be a bit tight if you stay longer. However, they are clean and comfortable for a short visit.
