The room was sufficient for a one-night stay. The air conditioning eventually cooled the room though it took a long time. There was noise outside the closed window until the noise ordinance curfew kicked in. The room was fairly clean though the decorative pillows were dingy and behind the furniture was dusty. The bath towels were not soft and there were some flies in the room (my window was open when I entered the room - I'm sure to cool it which was appreciated, but it did take some time - a few hours - to cool the room with the air conditioner). I was on the 3rd floor and if you walk down the staircase, it is very dark. An automatic light would be nice when descending the stairs. The location was convenient to shops, Old Town, and the train station.

Air conditioning! The hotel has air conditioning which was greatly appreciated during a heat wave in Europe. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good. Centrally located in the \"old town\" and not too far from central train station. Easy access to transit system as well; although, we did not need to use any trams or trains as everything was within a mile of the hotel if you do not mind walking, which allows you to better appreciate the local life.

Compact but functional. Air con was a bit noisy at night but it was 30 degrees out side so necessary for a good night’s sleep. Breakfast was ok and the location of the hotel was pretty good. Very near tram stops and bars and restaurants. 2 stops on the tram number 4 from Zürich HB which is handy if you have heavy bags and it’s stupidly hot.

The hotel is a bunch of rooms on top of a restaurant. No lobby. You enter the hotel from an ally in the back; between trash bins, in the dark. Though there is an elevator from the restaurant to the rooms floors you are NOT allowed to enter from the restaurant. One time , when our key to the back door did not work and we tried to go in from the restaurant, the manager showed displeasure. When we explained, he said \"let me see\" and took our key, went to the back door, and tried it. So, this meant, I could not wake up a bit early and go to the \"lobby\" and work on my photos or something else; somy wife could sleep.

The manager is not at all friendly. When we checked in at 10am, we did expect not to get a room. He told us to leave the bags right at the entrance to the restaurant, literally 1 foot from the road. I objected that it was not safe for my laptop and camera in the backpack. He said \"in that case, take it with you\". When we were not happy, he called some help who took it inside. He said to come at 2pm. We were walking around the old town around 12pm and wanted to use the WC at 12pm and went in. He looked at us and said \"I told you to come at 2pm\" and we had to tell him we came for the WC.

He is not a good manager and he alone is the reason NOT to rent this hotel.

Breakfast was pathetic. Room had no proper supplies.

Room was clean, good a/c(outside temps in Zurich were 96F), location is perfect.

The AC was the only redeeming quality of the room. The maid was nice, however the staff was aloof. When asking about booking our early ride to the airport per their website description, they said ‘that’s not us’ (flat out lie) on the Expedia page where I booked and they ‘have never had an airport shuttle’. Both of these were clearly disappointing. The breakfast was lacking fruit. Bread/jam/undercooked eggs were dismal. The coffee was the one redeeming piece of the morning. I would not stay at this property again.

The property is located perfectly in the heart of Old Town so location gets a 5 star. The room was clean and the AC worked, which was a blessing during our stay.
You have to enter/register through their steakhouse but after that they want you using the \"back door\". The fella that works there is cranky and barks at you if you come into the steakhouse. No ice for the room is available.
The elevator is very small so if you have lots of luggage or big bags it will be multiple trips up/down!
The shower door did not close which was a struggle to keep water off the floor. On the second day it didn't work at all so no showers. I tried to tell the gal at the desk but she didn't speak any English.

Our room on the 4th floor was adequate for a 1 night stay.
The room was very clean but very basic and in a good location for exploring the city, only 10min walk to Zurich HB

This hotel does not offer a front desk/ reception area. We seemed to be checked in by wait staff in the steak house attached.
There was no one to answer questions, or offer advice on what to see or do in the area. When I did ask one question, we were immediately dismissed because the waiter had to prepare the restaurant for the lunch crowd.
The room itself was basic but clean. Towels were ratty, pillows beyond flat

The entrance to the hotel is a little creepy. It’s located around the back of the building and you require the room key to open the door, or ring a door bell and the staff from the restaurant will let you in. When you enter the building, you go straight up the stairs or elevator…there is NOTHING hotel like about this place.

The hotel is ok for a quick stop or for someone very familiar with Zurich and does not need any guidance or advice about the town. It is a quick 10min walk from Zurich HB so that was nice.
Overall due to the lack of “hotel” amenities and a reception area with knowledge staff, I can only rate this a 3 star at best.

It was in the perfect spot to catch the tram. And in old town, it was convenient to everything. All buildings are old here, so expect it. They had a small elevator that could be accessed through the attached steakhouse restaurant, if needed, but the stairs worked fine for us. We entered through the back door to come and go which took us straight the stairs to our room.(This would not be an option for wheelchairs, as there are a few steps up to reach the elevator). Elevator access would have to go through the restaurant each time.
The included breakfast had nice options and they made a latte for us each day. It was a treat compared to regular coffee! The staff was friendly. Room was clean. It had everything we needed.

what a truly strange hotel. It sits on top of what looks to ne an excellent steak house yet you enter through an ummarked door in the back alley. There is no lobby, you sit at an empty table in the restaurant and fill out your registration then are hurried back into the dingy service area to an unmarked elevator and your room.


The room itself isnt bad, though negotiating large suitcases requires some finesse. Our room was on the front corner so had lovely views of the small piazza outside. the bathroom was quite small bit clean- toiletries had to ne put on a window ledge on the bedroom.

We were there for more than one night it may have annoyed me more; as it was I chalk it up to yet another quirky stay

The room was clean and the breakfast good. Staff were helpful. The main shortcoming was that the hotel played canned music at breakfast - I prefer quiet. They also did this in the evening (when it is a steakhouse), although we could have gone elsewhere to eat then. Also there is a public clock somewhere near which chimes the quarter hour and is not switched off at night. (Not the hotel's fault nor the fact of our not knowing that Swiss electric sockets are different from other European ones.)

It was a bit of a walk from the train station, but not too bad as long as it's not raining. Room was clean and decent. The breakfast was continental. Buy an electrical adapter as soon as possible. What we brought from the U.S. was not compatible. Buy your Swiss travel pass at the train station upon arrival or online.

Absolutely great location. No doubt. Walkable distance anywhere, city transportation around the corner.
Noisy street. Windows seal the sound outside very well, but then there is no fresh air.
Breakfasts could be richer and they did not vary during the stay. Staff refused to service any drinks without ordering a steak....
Next time it will be different place.

Excellent location however the room is small for a couple. Room by the side of the square where outside dining tables are set is a bit noisy.

The staff was good. The hotel is in middle of Zurich old town which we already knew but what we didn’t know was we will have to smell weed whole night from the shops in the street. We couldn’t close the windows and switch on the ac because of small room and AC right above our heads. Breakfast was okay with not many options. It’s walkable to most places though

Just ok, worked for one night.

This was our final hotel after 8 days in Switzerland. When looking for the hotel you’re looking for a restaurant as the hotel doesn’t have a traditional lobby. It has an elevator up to the 4th floor and the room had AC. To say the bathroom is small is an understatement, check out the picture. The breakfast was just ok, and didn’t start until 7:30. The hotel is in a good location, and less than a 10 minute walk to the main train station.

Property is very conveniently located in the old town.. Staff is very nice and accommodating. Breakfast was included and it was very delicious. Expect a room in an old building, very simple but clean at a reasonable price. Suitable for short stays in my opinion. There are people walking around at night, making noise, but we were not bothered by it

We loved our stay in Zurich, the hotel is in a perfect spot and it is nice and clean and had AC. As well as a very nice and intimate breakfast.

I accidentally left an ipad in the room and the staff was so accommodating, helping me get it mailed home. I appreciate it very much.

Nice place to stay in old town. Quite walkable from the trains. The place was clean and people were friendly.

Cons: it’s really not a hotel, it’s Airbnb affiliated by the restaurant downstairs. There is no service desk

Not very accommodating I must say. Don't arrive early, they won't be happy with you, as if I can control the cruise ship bringing us to the city... There is no reception area, we were asked to leave our suitcases in the restaurant and go visit until check-in. Great location, some employees are friendly. After a 2 hour wait, we did get out room, probably because I was having an intense coughing fit (I got a cold on the cruise ship). Oh there are no English TV channels.

Room was as shown in pictures. Clean, no frills, great for an overnight stay. Convenient location and lots of dining options in the area. From Zurich airport take #10 tram to Central and walk 5 mins. Cobblestones streets so just be aware of that. Old town sites just a stones throw across the street by the river. I'd stay here again for short stay. Breakfast options were good. So close to Zurich HB (10 mins)

Very friendly staff greeted me upon arrival and checked me in to my clean and comfortable room. Located in the heart of Old Town above a restaurant and down a cobblestone walk, this is a great option for a walkable stay (close to Kunsthaus and theatres). Breakfast was good, and the room was perfect for me as a solo traveler. Thank you!

Property was in a good area. However it was inside a restaurant and they didn't want us to enter and exit through it. Instead through a back door that had a bunch of garbage and construction junk around it. Lacking power outlets in room especially since I have a medical condition that requires power near the bed. Asked for an extension cord but they never provided one. Breakfast was a typical European style and quite delicious. Staff were pleasant.
