If you are looking to be where young and hip folks are and where different eateries are, this is the place for you! The vibe of the hotel is very cool and I liked that there was a reasonable priced breakfast available in the morning. Zurich is expensive, but this cute hotel is not--big thanks!

Hotel is fine, not great, not bad. Nice and close to the main train station, used it as a last stop before leaving Switzerland. Wouldn't be returning but also didn't feel like it was horrible.

Good budget hotel.
It is a good budget friendly hotel in a great location near the Zurich HB, shops and restaurants. The bed was ok. The shower was the smallest i have ever used. I am 5'9" , 175# and it was really tight. If i dropped the soap i couldn't pick it up, there was simply no room. I don't know if i was the lucky one or if the other rooms also have tiny showers.

Would go again
If you’re on a budget, this is great. Its super tiny but it had the comforts of coffee/tea and fridge in room which I find are essential. The location is 👌 great. I would definitely come back.

A little bit of a walk from the train station, and not quite in the center but it was still convenient for those who are able to walk. The concept of the hotel is pretty cool with their chocolate fountain in the front. The male receptionist was not so friendly or helpful but the girl, think her name was Meeri or something like that, was extremely nice, patient and helpful. The hotel was in pretty good condition, the room was small but comfortable.

Great location and newly appointed rooms
Great location in Old Town and a 2 minute walk to Central Tram station. Rooms are very nice and look newly done. I will definitely stay here again when back in Zürich or try another of their hotels.
