Very nice staff, older building full of charm, very comfortable.
Pros:

The staff was very communicative, very service-oriented, the location was good considering you have to walk to the hotel and there's no way to be driven there, and that was fine. The hotel was lovely, it was definitely an older building which has its own charm. There was nothing about the older building that was off-putting and the staff was overall wonderful.

Cons:

They offered laundry service however when I brought my laundry down in the only bag I had they told me that I was bringing it to them in an incorrect manner, that there was a bag in the room, and I had specifically looked for that bag when I was there assuming there was something like that and didn't find anything. I was very embarrassed to be told that I had done something incorrectly, and I had to go back to my room and look for the bag which absolutely was not where they told me it was. There was no laundry bag in my room, and I did not get laundry service done while I was there, quite disappointingly. I was too embarrassed to pursue the matter further, as I had been made to feel foolish for bringing my laundry in my own bag. I know that this was likely an oversight on their part, not putting the bag where it was supposed to be, but having brought the laundry down, I don't think I should have been made to carry it back to my room and look for a special bag. They should have had something at the desk to accommodate me since that's where the laundry was supposed to be brought to. They have to expect that people are not always going to find the special bag. In my case, especially given that it was not in the room.

Unbedingt empfehlenswertes, komfortables Altstadthotel mit historischem Charme
Pros:

Das Hotel Marktgasse befindet sich in einem historischen Gebäude aus dem 15. Jahrhundert mit wechselvoller Geschichte. Es liegt mitten in der Züricher Altstadt in einer Fußgängerzone, und zwar im lebendigsten Viertel Zürichs, dem "Niederdorf" am linken Limmat-Ufer. Wer Zürich ausführlich erkunden will, ist hier genau richtig. Alle Sehenswürdigkeiten sind fußläufig erreichbar, auch die Ablegestelle der Ausflugsschiffe am Zürichsee. Wer weniger zu Fuß gehen will, findet ganz in der Nähe eine Haltestelle der Trambahn, an der mehrere zentrale Linien verkehren. Die Zimmer sind der Kategorie entsprechend tadellos mit historischem Charme. Das Frühstück gibt es in einer auch von außen zugänglichen Bar und unterscheidet sich erfreulich vom üblichen Hotelfrühstück; köstlich die Züricher Gipfeli.

Cons:

Obwohl wir ein großes Zimmer mit zwei Bädern hatten, war die Schrankfläche für einen mehrtätigen Aufenthalt zu klein. Sonst fällt mir nichts ein.

Bra hotell med trevlig personal
Pros:

Mycket bra att det fans en liten flaska balsam till håret! Det finns sällan på hotell numera och jag har långt hår. Mycket trevlig personal. Goda teer som man hämtade i receptionen. Bra med öppen reception dygnet runt.

Cons:

Jag beställde ett litet rum och var medveten om det. men tyckte att sängen var lite väl smal. För en fullvuxen man är den nog för liten. Tyckte fläkten var jobbig men den gick att stänga av.
