Pros:

It's a very nice hotel, just next to the lake-side café, the amenities were amazing, the room was spacious and extremely clean.

Cons:

I got a street-facing room, so I could hear a minor noise from the cars driving by throughout the night (it's not a very small residential street unfortunately).

I assume this wouldn't be an issue at all on the other side of the corridor as otherwise the location is very peaceful.

Relaxing and not touristy
Pros:

The location is on Lake Zurich and is adjacent to a beautiful park and beach area. It is walkable to restaurants, grocery stores and the train. A huge bonus is the airport is a short 25 minute train ride with no transfers!

You are able to catch the ferry in front of the hotel. It is an easy way to explore the lake and the very historic towns. We enjoyed a day trip to Rapperswils.

Breakfast was part of our room rate and was delicious! Unfortunately, we were only able to enjoy it one time because of an early flight home.

The room was newly remodeled and very spacious. The hotel has bath salts and sachets that smell amazing. This was a great touch.

Cons:

The property was under construction so there was a noise factor. This was not something that would prevent us from staying again or highly recommending the hotel to others. It was just unfortunate timing.

Hotel accogliente e carino con affaccio sul meraviglioso lago di Zurigo
Pros:

Posizione sul lungo lago, edificio storico molto bello e ben arredato. La camera piccola ma molto carina.
ambiente della colazione molto accogliente, staff gentilissimo. Anche lo staff della reception. Al check out è stata offerta una confettura al rabarbaro, molto apprezzata.

Cons:

la camera era caldissima nonostante non ci fosse acceso il riscaldamento. Non si potevano tenere aperte le finestre a causa del rumore proveniente dalla strada. La mattina seguente mi è stato detto che avrebbero potuto accendere il raffreddamento se lo avessi chiesto.
colazione: abbastanza varia, qualità soddisfacente. Trovo sempre strano non trovare mai prodotti senza lattosio, soprattutto a questi livelli.

Lovely.
Pros:

Really lovely location. Right by the ferry pontoon and you can see the train station from the hotel. Very easy to get to.

Cons:

The weather was lovely and we wanted to eat our breakfast outside but this wasn’t possible. The outside terrace was lovely but the menu was quite limited so after two meals we ran out of options and we didn’t want to go inside and eat in the restaurant. Food options in the restaurant were expensive.
