The restaurant staff on arrival were very welcoming. We were provided with complimentary coffee and some cake. We were able to park beneath the property with lift access to the bistro that also acts as a reception. When booking in advance of our stay we were given the name of the room (Albis), a superior apartment on the second floor but this was not the room we were offered on arrival by the restaurant staff who greeted us. The room allocated (Titlis) was on the first floor. When entering the room the safe battery was bleeping and the staff member kindly changed it for us. The room had not been properly cleaned, The coffee machine took six operations to get clean water running through it, most furniture surfaces were extremely dusty, thick dust that is including on the bed frame and on the light over the bed. There were long dark hairs on one of the towels draped over the bath. There were small mosaic tiles missing from the floor in the shower room. Furniture surfaces were marked and scratched. We were very uncomfortable, so sent two email messages to the hotel (Vreni Ginger, host who we never met) on the first night. We left the hotel mid morning after breakfast the next day deciding to cut short our stay there and book elsewhere. The hotel agreed to refund the night we didn’t stay there but charged us for the night we did. We were told that they would have been prepared to upgrade our room but this was only offered after we had left mid morning.

This is a charming boutique hotel overlooking Zurich. I arrived late in the evening, and the staff was welcoming. The room was perfect, it was more a studio than your typical hotel room. I could have stayed there much longer. The hotel is in the woods, with a great view overlooking Zurich. I used public transport and as long as you can walk up the stairs, it's the perfect spot. The breakfast was very nice too!

Initially it was a little confusing that there was no front desk. However, we realized and were informed that since it is a hotel with few rooms, there really is no need for a 24 front desk. Instead, the staff in the Bistro act as front desk and truly are jack of all trades. All staff was super kind, helpful and pleasant. Hotel is next to a famous theatre so at night, there is a lot of movement. On nights when the theatre is not running, be sure to make reservations for dinner or the kitchen closes very early. Hotel is also super close to public transportation. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and were pleased.

Affordable luxury in Zurich
Very pleasant and affordable stay in Zurich. Free parking and breakfast. You can use your car to reach to the property but also a train station is just across the property. Up on the hill gives a great view for the surrounding area

The check-in was a little strange with no front desk—you have to check in in the bistro, but the room was very nice (and quite large) with an amazing view of Zurich. The included breakfast was also delicious. The one main downside is the curtain between the living/bedroom area and the bathroom. It would have been nice to have more of a separation.

Apartment / Hotel
The hotel is comprised of very large self contained apartments which are enermous. Coffee maker, fridge, microwave and cooking facilities available. Free underground car parking with lift access directly to hotel. Cold buffet breakfast with usual fresh bread, rolls. crossaints, cereal, fruit and cooked meats available, egg based dishes are cooked to order, I had scrambled eggs with bacon both mornings which were excellent. The staff are fantastic and make your stay as comfortable and pleasurable as possible. Good location, 10 minute drive into Zürich town centre. I would highly recommend and would stay again. The only negative is that the restaurant was closed for the duration of our stay.

Absolutely great location and hotel space. Our room had an amazing view of the city below, and was incredibly comfortable. However, the hotel lost our reservation and tried to charge us twice and blamed me for it!

Fantastic!
Our room was amazing with floor to ceiling Windows and high ceilings. It really felt like our own apartment. The area is away from the crowds and in an upscale neighborhood. Dinner at the restaurant was great! The staff was great and helpful. The bathroom layout is the only downfall as it does not feel private.
