Top Oberstrass Hotel Reviews

Arlette Am Hauptbahnhof Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"All excellent, the room clean, the personal"

Placid Hotel Design & Lifestyle Zurich

8/10 Good

"The room was really nice, with a modern look. Also great to have coffee in the room. The location is close to a tram to take you to the city centre and bus to the nearest train station, so it is not central, but convenient. Around the hotel there are a mix of some warehouses and offices, we were there at the weekend so it was very quiet. I think cleaning could be better, there were a few stains in the bathroom, but I'd stay again. We didn't have breakfast so can't comment on that."
