Hotel Adler Zürich

8/10 Good

"Great location and great value for money"

Ruby Mimi Hotel Zurich by IHG

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in a great location and very clean. Staff were very helpful in arranging a late check out ( when our flight home was delayed by more than five hours) at a cost of 70CHF. We got a free upgrade on check in which was lovely. Our room was very compact but with a comfy queen size bed. The shower is glass to the bedroom area ( with privacy curtains if wanted) and accessed via a very small toilet area with the wash hand basin located outside the toilet area in the main room walkway. The shower leaked into the toilet area ( under the door) when used and we had to mop this up with hand towels which was a nuisance . I didn’t really like the set up fir the toilet/ sink / shower snd would have preferred a more traditional bathroom layout ."
