Perfect stay in a amazing location within Zurich.
Pros:

Location of the property was perfect. 10 minute walk away from the Train Station and shopping center. Not too far away from the river. A lot of good eats and restaurants nearby as well. The room was clean, comfortable, and quiet. The bathroom and shower were amazing. The staff were welcoming, friendly, and very informative/accomodating.

Cons:

No complaints

Rapporto qualità prezzo troppo bassa
Pros:

La posizione

Cons:

Camera davvero piccola e molto costosa per dimensione, servizi e stelle
Inoltre essendoci solo un climatizzatore portatile per usufruirne si doveva tenere finestra aperta

Excellent breakfast
Pros:

The breakfast was excellent - and so were the staff at breakfast

Cons:

Unsmiling welcome from person on reception on arrival - other staff we met seemed fine.
We arrived on a very hot day and our top floor room, instead of having proper air con, had a large mobile unit with a hose leading out of the window (noisy and we had to leave window open). Luckily we were only there for 1 night

Stylish hotel in a fantastic location and a great base for exploring Zurich.
Pros:

Great boutique hotel in an excellent location with easy access to the train station, restaurants and central Zurich. The hotel had a stylish artistic feel, the room was comfortable, and staff were friendly and welcoming. Perfect for a short stay before flying home after our Eurovision Europe trip.

Cons:

We stayed on the first floor facing the road and could hear traffic noise until late at night.
