Boutique Hotel Wellenberg

10/10 Excellent

"Super helpful staff"

Hotel Marta - 1950’s architecture in Zurich’s vibrant old town, near main station

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location. Very clean hotel, a simple place with no extra amenities. Breakfast is modest but OK and healthy. If you want to be pampered, this is too modest a hotel for you, but if you need an inexpensive and convenient location in Zurich, Marta can be recommended."

citizenM Zürich

8/10 Good

"The room was modern, clean and well maintained. The bathroom area was somewhat disjointed and small. The modern way the facility was maintained with pads to request service and housekeeping did not work. When we requested our room to be made up and towels exchanged it did not happen, yet the computer showed we did request it. I'm not sure if it was electronic request or human error. The hotel was conveniently located a mere 5-10 minute walking distance from the train station and old town with lots of eating options. Zurich is not a town for the budget minded traveler unless you are willing to eat fast food."
