    When traveling out of the country it is so important that my hotel has great amenities. Not only did this hotel deliver but it was conveniently located. Walking distance to so many different points of interest. Where I could not walk, the train depot is literally across the street from my hotel. I slept like a baby in my power controlled bed that I could elevate with the push of a button. My tv remote had to be charged or I could control the tv using my phone. So cool. Also, there was fresh fruit in my room daily. The hotel breakfast was pretty good; always the freshest of everything. The concierge took great care in booking two of my excursions. Elevators are super small. No other complaints to report.

    The location of this hotel is very convenient. It's right across the street from Bahnhofplatz - Zurich's main train station which has a direct connection to/ from the airport which only takes about 15 minutes. Right outside is a tram stop. Trams 7 and 13 stop here for sure and I forgot the other trams that stop here as well. There are plenty of shops, restaurants and chocolatiers nearby. The hotel has a nice restaurant as well. It's quite pricey at $270+/night which includes breakfast and WiFi. I didn't get to enjoy the hotel breakfast as I had other breakfast plans...or I'm out the hotel way too early for breakfast. But do know that Zurich is one of the most expensive cities to visit in the world. They're 2nd on the list as of 2019 tied with Paris. So, paying at least $150/night for a hotel room is not unheard of. The room kind of looks old but it's clean. Enough space for 1 person. There's a 24hr gym. The usual flatscreen TV, toiletries, and other hotel room amenities. You're mainly paying for Zurich...and the convenient location.

    While this hotel is only Rated at 4-Stars, the decor, location, and European style easily gives it 5-Stars in my book! I found a special deal thru Booking.com for this accommodation at a Low-Rate of $246 (original pricing over $400) for a Standard Double Room with One Queen Bed. Coming from Luxembourg, this hotel is a less than 10 minute walk from Bahnhofstrasse, where the main train station is located. I had time to check in, have a quick beer at the restaurant, and then it was off for an event at the Kaufleuten to see Nervo and Friends. It is a shame I didn't take pictures inside the hotel or breakfast buffet because everything was impeccable! I recommend this hotel for its class, comfort, but mainly for the location. The famous pedestrian shopping street Bahnhofstrasse is just a stone's throw away from the hotel's doorstep with shopping and restaurants you do not want to miss! Zurich's up-and-coming neighbourhood famous "Europaallee", the classic financial district by Paradeplatz and Zurich's sightseeing spots are all within steps of the hotel. They treated me like a king during my stay and will treat you the same if you end up staying here during your trip to Zürich!

    easyHotel - Broken sink

    My stay at easyHotel Zurich was an absolute nightmare, and I strongly advise against booking a room…read morehere. 1 .Blocked Sink on Arrival: The bathroom sink was clogged the moment I checked in. The water wouldn't drain at all, creating a disgusting and unsanitary condition. Their team later tried to blame me for "improper use" even though I had just arrived and hadn't even used the sink yet. 2. Scalding Water - Unsafe: The water in the sink and shower was boiling hot no matter which direction the tap was turned -- this is a serious safety hazard. Touching the water even briefly risked burns, and there was no way to adjust the temperature. 3. No On-Site Staff: This so-called "self-service" hotel means that there is no staff at the property -- not even during the day. If something goes wrong, you're on your own unless you can make an international phone call or physically drag your luggage back down to the lobby to "start over" via a kiosk. 4. Unhelpful and Dismissive Support: Their customer service was robotic and dismissive. Despite multiple emails clearly explaining my situation -- late check-in, blocked sink on arrival, inability to use my phone plan for calls -- I was offered no meaningful help. They simply repeated that the issue was "not reported in time" and refused a refund or repair. Their proposed solution? I should carry all my luggage back downstairs and call a Swiss phone number. I physically couldn't do that, and they didn't care. 5. No Accountability, No Compensation: Instead of owning up to poor conditions, they deflected blame and gaslit me. Their refusal to acknowledge their responsibility for basic maintenance is shocking. I've attached photos and videos showing the blocked drain and scalding water. I'm also sharing a redacted version of our email correspondence that shows how poorly they handled the situation.

    Although I am rating this Easy Hotel a 1, I will say that it is cheap for the area, near-ish to…read morethe train station, and the wifi works. Almost nothing else did for me, though. I would rate higher if Easy Hotel was promoted as a room for the night as opposed to a hotel. It is NOT a hotel in the conventional sense. There are no employees on the property, which really concerned me because I had to call someone twice. No elevator. I was put on the highest floor. Couldn't work the TV, among other things. The towels weren't replaced the next day, so there were only dirty ones and no washcloths. The bathroom is designed in a way that the floor slopes and curves. There is a step to the rest of the room which is easily tripped on. This is NOT for someone with mobility issues! It's a noisy neighborhood- so much noise outside that I could barely sleep. I couldn't get out of there fast enough. I was more comfortable in the train station and definitely the airport.

    Hotel St. George's - Zürich…read more This small, three story boutique hotel located centrally in downtown Zürich, with accommodating staff. I walked to this hotel from "HB Train Station," when I first arrived in Zürich. I wanted to explore by foot streets of Zürich. When I walked in, I really enjoyed the lobby (I forgot to take pics ). It offers a touch of historic elegance. Lobby area also leads to their own restaurant area. Breakfast can be purchased separately at the restaurant or at the time of booking. Once the friendly front desk lady finished accommodating a guest before me, she invited me to sit at the comfortable furniture by her desk, to check in. As she assisted me to check in, at some point in our conversation, I mentioned that I forgot my universal outlet adapter. She said, "I do have one extra I can give you for 10 Swiss Francs." It was her personal one. I felt bad she was giving up hers, but I was so grateful. "Thank you for offering me one, yes I will take it. I researched that it would cost 30+ Swiss Francs at a store." It was a wonderful first impression of the friendly and welcoming staff. Once I received my key, another staff member guided me to elevator and up to my room. The room was fairly small with a small bed, and personal sink, but for solo traveler, it's perfect. (All other hotels were more expensive and further away from downtown). You do share toilet and shower with other guests. Each of the three floors, offers few toilet rooms and shower rooms. At first, I was a bit concerned since I've never stayed in hotel with this type of arrangement. But, honestly, it was not an inconvenience in any way. I never had to wait for other guests. I had a balcony that I walked out every morning and enjoyed the beautiful weather. Every night, I propped my window open, fell asleep and enjoyed waking up each morning to chirping birds. Overall I would recommend this hotel and look forward returning.

    Fantastic! Check in…read morewent smoothly. Explained everything very well. Staff was friendly and welcoming and answered all my questions. The hotel itself and room was extremely clean. The bathroom and shower were very clean as well. I was a tad nervous sharing a bathroom/shower with others, but didn't notice a difference really. Never had to wait for either. I did get breakfast one morning and it's a buffet style of typical European foods. Eggs, breads, jams, cheeses, cold cuts, muesli, cereal, and yogurt. Delicious. With tea, coffee, juice, and water. I wish I would have gotten it the whole stay. I would definitely recommend this establishment. Especially for the price and location. Close to train station and many restaurants and sites.

We were hot and tired and they welcomed us with ice-cold infused water and cool towels. They treated our kids like royalty. Our room was perfect - I believe it was a "family suite" room 404. So large and spacious with lots of air conditioning. Housekeeping twice a day kept things clean, stocked, and orderly. The breakfast was in a beautiful room with all the fruits and pastries and eggs and meats you can imagine. The hotel is in an excellent location for walking, dining, and shopping. It was the best stay of our whole trip and we would be thrilled to return!

Design is clearly a high priority--everywhere you look, the architecture, interiors, furniture, décor, are nothing short of artful. And they are done to cleverly mash-up the history and modernity. It's almost like staying in a museum--it's so beautiful. They have a farm they use to supply a lot of the food across the property and the food is spectacular. The breakfast spread and hot menu items, in particular, were one of the best I've seen--everything was so tasty. They also treated us to a welcome amenity that was a selection of sweet and savory snacks they made. And, we visited their bar, which is also gorgeous with an incredible menu. My partner is celiac and so we need strict gluten free with no cross-contamination to keep him safe. The hotel took this seriously from the moment I asked the concierge for help. The breakfast team was very helpful with navigating the options, and even brought him gluten free bread. Our server in the bar seemed to understand the issue and take it seriously. And, they even managed to make the in-room welcome amenity gluten free for him, which I would have never expected. We felt very safe with their team.
