Hotel mit guter Lage und nettem Personal. Zimmer grosszügig und leise.
Pros:

Das Personal ist sehr freundlich, die Lage ist auch sehr gut (Bahnhofsnähe, Altstadt, Seepromenade). Das Zimmer gross, sogar mir Schreibtisch. Das Bad hat ein Fenster gehabt, das ist für mich ein Pluspunkt mehr. Sehr leise, habe die Nachbarn nicht gehört. Ich werde das Hotel wieder buchen.

Good value considering Zurich prices.
Pros:

Easy walk from the station for transfer to the airport and also to the old town. Lovely restaurant. Very good breakfast. Pleasant sitting room to wait until our room was ready.

Cons:

Rooms are very small. Had to request extra covers for the bed, as one small quilt did not actually cover 2 people.

Pros:

Great location. Room was overlooking the square and river. They had a nice fan to help cool the room down. As loud as the outside traffic was with the windows open, once we closed everything up it was super quiet!!

Cons:

Room was stuffy. Nothing fancy.

Very good location but overpriced room even for Switzerland
Pros:

The location is very good and the breakfast ist good too. The bathroom is renovated

Cons:

My room was like a student dorm and very small. My husband and I could hardly move in the room. The double bed was leaning at a wall so I couldn't go out of it at the side. I had to crawl to the end of the bed to get out. The room also didn't have air conditioning and the fan that was provided added one more obstacle to mobility in the room. The propriety warned us that there was no air conditioning only after I paid for the reservation. I made it more than a month in advance
