Perfect Shower Experience

“I absolutely enjoyed the shower in my room. It had perfect pressure and temperature, making it a great way to refresh after a long day of exploring. The bathroom, despite being compact, had everything I needed in terms of toiletries, a pleasant surprise for a European hotel.” view full review

Cozy and Comfortable Beds

“The beds in my room were soft yet supportive, providing a lovely night's sleep. I really appreciated the additional furniture in the room, including a luggage rack and two chairs, as it added to the comfort and usability of the space. It was a nice touch that many hotels overlook.” view full review

Surprisingly Good Breakfast

“The buffet breakfast exceeded my expectations. For just a reasonable fee, I found a variety of options that filled me up for the day ahead. They had muesli, fresh bread, and even boiled eggs, a great start to my mornings!” view full review

Well-Equipped Room

“The room was thoughtfully designed with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. It was compact but well-appointed, with a good-sized desk that was perfect for using my laptop.

United States, April 2024

8.0/10

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were spacious enough with modern fittings in the shower room/toilet; however, they overlooked a cobblestone laneway with noisy walkers passing by. The service was incredibly warm and welcoming, making us feel looked after and well taken care of. The location, right in the middle of the old city, allowed us to explore effortlessly. The dining experience was basic but sufficient, and additional meals had to be sought outside. The overall value for money was somewhat questionable.

The hotel has comfortable rooms, but lacks charm to be cozy. The service is welcoming and attentive, reflecting the awesome atmosphere. Its location in Old Towne Zurich is perfect for exploring on foot, right amidst all the wonderful attractions. However, the dining options were limited and missed gluten-free choices.
