I highly recommend staying here. The staff is very helpful and kind.
Pros:

The hotel has an excellent location, right in the city center. The room amenities are great, the breakfast is delicious, and I really appreciate the complimentary drinks coffee, tea, or water available directly at the reception. The rooms are exceptionally clean, and the staff provides outstanding care. Overall, the hotel is very cozy. There are restaurants, shops, tram stops, and the main train station nearby. The hotel is also very close to the tram stop that goes directly to the airport.

Cons:

The breakfast room is a bit small, but it's not a big deal. It can be slightly noisy from the street, but that is to be expected since it's located right in the city center. The bathroom was a quite small

Kann das Hotel leider nicht empfehlen. Kann die Bewertung auch nicht so ganz nachvollziehen.
Pros:

Die Lage wär gut

Cons:

Zimmer war nicht wirklich sauber es war sehr laut und sehr stickig in dem Zimmer. Beim Frühstück war man eher eingeengt. Man hat sich ein bisschen unwohl gefühlt, als ich mich beschwert hab dass das Zimmer viel zu heiß ist. Wurde nur gesagt hier gibt’s halt keine Klima. Mach die Fenster auf ist halt so.Dadurch hatten wir ne ziemlich schlechte Nacht. Kann das Hotel wirklich nicht empfehlen

Pros:

Pozione ottima, personale molto gentile e disponibile, prezzo decisamente abbordabile per Zurigo

Cons:

La struttura ha un che di vetusto. La stanza che ho avuto era davvero piccola. La colazione migliorabile. Va bene per i prezzi di Zurigo, per carità.
