I was in my room An hour after I checked in and was in bed, a man entered my room with a key. I was scared and he was embarrassed. The woman at the front desk made the mistake. When I went to find out what was happening she apologized but then I was locked out of my room because the other man had the key. She had to redo the key. This is unacceptable.

The hotel is perfect for a Zurich stay. We had a 5 year old and there is a decent playground down the street. The staff was wonderful. I literally got a brush stuck in my hair as I was preparing for a presentation at U Zurich. My family was out and the staff patiently got it out of my hair. Very pleasant breakfast. No air conditioning but it cools off in the evening.

Stayed here for 3 nights with my daughter when we visited Zurich. The location was close to a tram stop and the metro so getting to downtown Zurich was easy (once you got the connections figured out). They were also only a 20ish minutes tram ride from the airport. We also really enjoyed that they were city near the city and the country. They had bicycles that we borrowed for a couple of hours (complimentary!) and rode to a nearby town. Bike paths were amazing and we got to see a different side to Switzerland. Most of the staff were super helpful 4 out of 5 stars there. There was one lady that was not very friendly or helpful but the others made up for it. Room was just what we needed! No AC but they did provide a fan and the windows opened to get the cooler night air temps. Overall I would recommend this hotel to others if you are looking for a reasonably priced hotel near Zurich!

The advertisement on Orbitz for this hotel was not accurate. We were placed in the older building with no elevator. With heavy luggages this was not convenient at all or older people will not make the two flight of stairs with heavy luggage. Also no air conditioner in the room, window was opened so you can hear the traffic noise.They have a newer hotel but they put us in the older building. The room was clean but our door shakes and makes noise when another guests open their door. Hallway carpeting is old. Shower was very small and old. Staff is very nice and breakfast was good.

An excellent hotel, let down by the lack of air conditioning.

AVOID during summer months.

The hotel is easily reached from the Airport by taking the No 12 Tram. It has easy access to the excellent integrated Zurich public transport system.

It is ideally located a short walk from the Samsung Hall event venue.

My room was a good size with a very comfortable bed and good bathroom/shower.

However, even with the large fan provided by the hotel the room was very hot and airless due to the lack of air conditioing,

Breakfast was plentiful, with good coffee. The hotel cable has a good choice of channels including several UK channels

This is a lovely hotel. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the restaurant is excellent. There is also a wonderful sauna and spa. It was really unfortunate that our visit coincided with a heatwave because there is no air conditioning!!! We were provided with a fan but as we did not have a window that could be opened significantly all that achieved was hot air being wafted around. We were particularly unlucky to be on the top (4th) floor so we had a fixed skylight that acted as a radiator 😩. Temperatures were as high as 35 °C outside and I can't imagine what the temperature was in the room. It was unbearable and made sleeping virtually impossible. The restaurant was also unbearably warm, but eating outside was often not an option as it was hard to get a table. Since there is also smoking permitted anywhere outside, it was also very unpleasant to eat, even inside near the windows.

Our room was nice enough, but a huge area was take up by a non functioning open fire place, that whilst adding character, made the usable space quite limited. There was only one window that could be vented slightly and unfortunately it was on the balcony of the adjoining room, which meant we had people sitting directly outside talking and privacy was an issue. The bathroom was a good size but badly laid out. The shower was very small and could easily have been twice the size and water temperature and pressure variable so we were scalded or frozen alternately. More surface area is needed.

The hotel was very clean and modern and the check-in staff member was very helpful (sorry not sure of her name). The room was also very clean and was a good size but unfortunately had no air conditioning which made the room very hot and stuffy.

Negative: No coffee/tea making in room (only in foyer but no tea or milk), Too far from city centre and only hotel restaurant (quite expensive) and one other restaurant 500 metres away available for dining options. Also we found it quite offensive to see naked people from the spa from our window

Affordable Swiss hotel

We booked this hotel as it was close to the location of a concert we were seeing which was walking distance. Unfortunately our room was directly next to the entrance of the restaurant so till late and from 5.30am we would hear the door opening and closing and people coming past. When the restaurant door opened it caused our door to shake quite loudly from the change in air pressure. This was the only real problem. The staff were very warm and nice and the service in the restaurant was very good. Nice touches in the room with chocolates and the duck. Good value for a Swiss hotel. Did not really get to explore the local area all though quite a distance from the center of town but very close to tram stops.

I stayed two nights for business, so didn't have time to use all the spa facilities. But what I really liked is that there was a yoga mat in my room, with instructions on how to do sun salutations. I had a long yoga session on one of the evenings and it was just so good to be able to do that in the hotel after a long day at work.

I'd definitely stay again in this hotel and other Sorell hotels (this is a Swiss chain).

READ BEFORE BOOKING - AVOID!!! HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!

The hotel gave our room to someone else in error and put us in a crappy room in the basement with twin beds without issuing a refund or credit claiming they were all booked out. The basement area smelled strongly of drugs and chemicals, possibly a meth lab (who knows), and offered us a dinner voucher for the inconvenience which we did not use. To add to the horror, we left the room and came back to the door and window wide open. We didn’t check out but it appeared as if someone broke into our room! Clearly this isn’t a safe place to stay! We requested a refund but they refused. Horrible experience. BAD SERVICE. AVOID AT ALL COSTS! The beds, sheets, towels, soap, shampoo/body wash, etc. are all low quality as well. The dishes during breakfast were mostly all dirty. Idk how this hotel is even operating. It was the worst possible experience ever and did not appear to be clean/hygienic. They also have a random kids play room in the basement, which literally looks like a dungeon from a horror movie.

Good Hotel

A two night stay as I was working in the local area. The hotel is at a fairly busy road junction but I didn't hear any noise from the road to disturb me. There was noise from other guests, the walls seemed to be fairly thin unfortunately. The room was clean and comfortable, a good desk space allowed me to set up my laptop to do work, and the wifi connection was always very good. The restaurant on site has a good menu of meals (though mostly these were quite expensive - actually similar to prices in Zurich city center). The breakfast options were very good with hot bacon and scrambled eggs, cold meats, smoked salmon, cereals, bread, pastries and yogurts all laid out on the buffet.
There were no hot drinks facilities in the bedroom - though there is a hot drinks machine in the reception area that I used a few times during my stay.
I didn't make use of any of the spa facilities during my stay.
Travel around Zurich was easy from this location - the airport is about 25 to 30 minutes away by tram (the Ringstrasse station is less than 5 minute walk from the hotel) and getting in to the centre of Zurich is easy with Stettbach train station about a 10 minute walk away (the train journey is about 20 minutes from there).

Okay facility but not much service.

Arrived at 11:30pm to find the front desk closed with a stack of keys in envelopes. Eventually found our room (in a different building) but could not get online, which I really needed to do. No one to call for help. Our triple room only had 2 made beds. Again, no one to call, so I slept with a towel as my blanket. The next day the surly front desk agent handed me the necessary wifi code and told me I should have known the front desk would be closed and should have called earlier in the night for the wifi code. Really? By this time, it was too late to make the flight change I needed. This caused us to get stuck in Zurich for another day. Thankfully I found a room closer to the airport for half the price so I will never stay at the Sorell again or recommend to others. One bright spot: the breakfast workers were very nice and the breakfast was substantial.

Noisy and hot

The hotel is not too far from Stettbach train station, but quite a bit out from Zurich central. Overall the hotel is good, rooms are fine and the bed is comfortable. However, if it is hot you will need the window open, and until zurich airport closes there is constant airplane noise, and if your room faces the carpark/entrance/restaurant, it will be noisy until very late, and again from very early. If you are in town for business you might not get the restful sleep you might need.
