We had a wonderful stay at this hotel and would highly recommend it is staying in Central Zurich is not a preference. The property impressed us with its vibrant, colourful interiors, warm and positive atmosphere.

The rooms were spacious, comfortable, and well maintained, making our stay very pleasant. One of the biggest advantages is the excellent location—it's right next to the train station (Central Zurich is less than 10 mins away) and tram stops, making it incredibly convenient for getting around. There are also supermarkets, restaurants, and cafés within a short walk, which made everything very convenient.

The breakfast was outstanding with a lavish spread (American breakfast with limited Veg options). The staff were courteous, welcoming and always willing to help.

The hotel need to look at providing few basic items in rooms - hot water kettle, tea/coffee/sugar sachet, glasses and coffee mugs, iron, dental kit etc. All of them were provided on request but are basic items required while travelling and to be available in rooms without request. There are open shelves for clothes and need to have closed one's.


Overall, the hotel offers an excellent combination of comfort, convenience, great service, and a lively ambience. We would definitely choose to stay here again on our next visit.

So the hotel is just open.. it is lovely & new & the brand is pretty cool.. however the rooms are not! We were absolutely boiling all three nights, the “air con” wouldn’t blow out a candle. The shower flooded a lot, appears it wasn’t sealed correctly or al all. The rooms don’t have tea / coffee facilities which really should be a common standard. Beds were comfy but the “queen” bed was rather small. Fridge in room was ok, but water was only a welcome offer, I feel this should be replenished daily. Staff were nice but not exceptional. Breakfast was good. The location is perfect for tram & train connections & has lots of near by food shops / restaurants etc. still a few bits missing to make this an excellent stay for us

One of my worst hotel experiences, in terms of service and honestly in what you are getting.

In my hurry at the airport after my flight was cancelled I booked with breakfast, but was

I booked the xxl family room with couch and it was not that. Two separate small rooms with lots of lost corridor space. The rooms were not even connected but there was an additional door in the regular hallway to you could close off that part of the hallway between the separate rooms. But the space was unusable. So I paid double for the one small room I could actually use.

Few amenities. No coffee or the usual, just some water. Not even tissues, had to use toilet paper for a runny nose.

The only solution the front desk suggested was to not accept me and have me contact hotels.com for a refund based on refusing to give me a room. This is at midnight on a Sunday with a child.
