Zurich West Pet-friendly Holidays

I wish I knew the closest train was out of service before booking. I loved the hotel and the nearby walks/hikes, but it takes an hour to get to town. They have a replacement bus service (two separate buses) to the next closest station. Those buses only run from 6:20am to midnight. This is rough for some travellers. It is also hard to figure out how to get there at first. Our map took us to the bottom of the mountain at the back side instead of the front, and we had to hike up with our stuff. Avoid the tram - take the nearest train to Schweighof train station then catch the two busses near (EV1 or EV2)z Do not book this place if you have an early morning or late night planned - you will be paying too much money in taxis. Overall the location is beautiful, and we loved our stay. I just can’t stress enough how the location is quite tough for a person who is not familiar with the area and the transit. Avoid Apple & Google maps and rely on the Zurich metro website. We spent a lot of time in the hotel as it was harder to get and stay in town for long periods. If you love to come & go from town and eat out for every meal, avoid staying here. The hotel food is extremely pricy. You need to make grocery runs and take back food as there are no other close options.

Good location with mall and grocery stores close by. Tram, bus, and train stations all there too. Dark rooms. The alarm went off twice within 12 hours due to a sensor malfunction. The staff did not seem to know what was going on and nobody communicated anything with the guests. It was very inconvenient and loud. We had to evacuate the building both times.

Lovely staff and nice facilities . Will stay again.

The staff was very helpful when my husband was sick and we needed to go to the emergency room. They helped me find the best one open at that time. The breakfast was excellent and the price was inclusive of custom omelettes, lattes, etc. and had very nice features such as a juicer. We stayed on the same floor as the gym/sauna, which was basic for gym equipment but has a nice roof deck with tea, fruit, and train station views. The trains are constant if you open the window. The only thing is I wish the bed was softer and that the room had a regular chair.

The room was snall but adequate for 1 night. Fairly basic, bed was comfortable but unable to completeroll down the shutters and lock them. The breakfast was great and plenty.
