As a solo traveller I give this a 5 star rating. The location is perfect beside a park and the swiss museum. All the tours leaving from the bus terminal are a few steps away. The breakfast is delicious. And the rooms albeit small are very clean and nice size bathroom. I would highly recommend for these reasons as well as clise to old town and designer shops.

Super convenient hotel. Extremely clean and comfortable beds. Very helpful staff. Specially Mark and Tony at the front desk and Dunia at the cafeteria. Amazing customer service. We love to stay so close to the HB station and other attractions. We couldn’t pick a better place to stay in Zurich.

Hotel is very close to the main train station with easy access to all the main tourist attractions in Zurich. There is a Starbucks next to the hotel if you like American style coffee drinks. I would recommend the hotel if you are looking for a reasonably priced hotel for a short stay in Zurich.
