Love the design of the rooms in this hotel, bathroom was gorgeous and had really nice toiletries - so no need to pack your own. It’s self check in, but that was easy. Very close to the station and in a nice area.

Nice looking property. Easy 5 minute walk to train station and nearby a grocery store and several cafes. Biggest drawback was lack of air conditioning and train noise, but overall a good experience.

The hotel is around 5 mins walk from train station. There are many tram stops around the hotel make it easy to get around Zurich. Many groceries store and good local restaurants to choose from within 5-10 mins walk. I would stay here again if we go back to Zurich.

There is no 24 hour manned check in. The automated check in did not work and the reception area is not lit. This was very unnerving when arriving on my own, late after a flight delay.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
I liked the decor but everthing in the room did feel quite cheap, especially the bedding, one side had one pillow and one side had two pillows stuffed in one case. The pillows were far too thin. The room was just quite worn, scuffs all over the walls etc. Great location though but i think overproced for the quality.

I really liked the proximity to the train station and old town area. I thought there were good restaurants nearby and some options for grocery shopping. I thought the hotel room was nice and clean and had what I needed for my stay. The staff was polite, although I wish there was a more clear reception area.
