10/10

One of the most perfect hotel experiences I’ve ever had. Comfortable and incredibly quiet- I never heard another patron the entire time. Location was excellent also - was able to find restaurants even on a public holiday.
4-night trip

10/10

Hotel was clean and modern. Staff was very nice and helpful. Great location and easy walking distance from the train station. Breakfast buffet was somewhat limited on selections, but what they had was very good. This will be my go-to hotel to stay while in Zurich.

Upon checkin I was very excited for my room, the location, and our planned stay. After unpacking for our 5 night stay, I took a well needed shower. First the shower head was leaking out the side, so I thought I’ll finish this shower and then notify maintenance. It progressively got worst and eventually lead to the shower head blasting off into my head. Leaving me with a bruise and headache while covered in soap. The shower hose went everywhere leading to a bathroom covered in water. After hosing myself off, I went to the lobby where they proceeded to change my rooms but not really being apologetic to the situation. I had expected the manager to followup with me which they did not. They moved us to a bigger room but one without the balcony that I loved the most. Later on in my stay I had maintenance come by without requesting anything and had them open the door unannounced and without knocking. The location is what really made this special. I would stay here again for the location and just have very low expectations of the staff and maintenance.

Curtains didn’t fit the windows so it was very bright, super loud rooms. Not homely or comfortable. Generally disappointing. Staff were polite and helpful, food was good

8/10

Great location, 5 star customer service, friendly staff, modern and clean hotel. Just be aware that the images show an indoor soft play area for children and also an outdoor space with play equipment. These facilities are sadly not available at the hotel. We were kindly shown a family room, in case we wanted to move into one, but we were already unpacked and half way through our stay. Other than this, great hotel, cannot fault it!
