Somente a localização é boa!
Pros:

SOMENTE da localização, é excepcional!

Cons:

Hotel com dependências antigas, a entrada é por uma porta onde tem uma cortina horrível preta antes da acessar as escadas pra subir pra recepção, café da manhã fraquissimo somente o básico, o prédio todo necessita de um up. Não voltaria a me hospedar novamente!!

Really comfortable and cosy hotel with personal experience and a great central location in Zürich old town
Pros:

The hotel has a great central location in Zürich’s old town

The staff were really friendly and you got a really old fashioned (in a good way) personal experience with the system of giving the key back every time I went out the staff on reception got to know you and were always really polite

Although basic the rooms are really comfortable and have all the facilities you would expect from a hotel at this star level and price point, no frills but extremely comfortable and clean

Cons:

My one criticism point and I know this is something the hotel really cannot help is noise… I don’t mean from the street that never bothers me as I am a heavy sleeper but noise from the adjacent rooms the walls are quite thin so I could hear a lot of what was going on the corridor and the other rooms. Again it is by no means the hotel’s fault but wanted to raise it for awareness

Pros:

Location in the Old City is excellent. Staff member whom we met was very helpful and nothing was a problem. We did not have the breakfast, so cannot comment. The room was fine, very comfortable, while not very big, this is to be expected in the location where it is.
