    Request a room away from the street for a quieter experience, especially during events when noise levels rise significantly.

    central location
    clogged drain
    unclean bathroom

    Centrally located with easy access to attractions.

    I cannot believe the state of the bathroom! It was disgusting and not cleaned properly, with a clogged shower drain that the staff ignored for days. It took all my patience to finally convince them to move me to another room, which should have been offered without such a hassle. To make matters worse, the noise from the streets meant I couldn't enjoy a moment of peace. I am beyond frustrated with how poorly my concerns were handled.

    location asset
    outdated decor
    small rooms

    Prime location in the old town, unique wine cellar, convenient access to trams and public transportation

    The entrance needs a serious update!!! Tackling stairs to reach reception is a hassle, especially with luggage!!! Rooms are cramped and lack ventilation, making it uncomfortable during humid weather!!! More storage options would be greatly appreciated!!!

    accessibility issues
    elevator access

    The cozy furnishings in Hirschen created a charming vibe, making it a delightful retreat in the heart of Zurich's old town. The helpful staff also made navigating the hotel quite easy, even for seniors like myself.

    More accessible elevators for seniors would be helpful.

    Recommend it for families

    Great location near the train station and lots of restaurants made it so easy for us to enjoy everything without any hassle. The staff were really helpful, helping us with our luggage and always smiling, which made a difference after long travel days.

    It wasn't exactly economical but it was still good value for what we got.

    cozy room
    sun terrace
    staff attitude

    My recent solo stay in Zürich was delightful, especially enjoying the cozy single room with all the little touches like a kettle for my coffee and fresh body lotion. I loved chilling out on the sun terrace and the peaceful atmosphere it provided, even though the breakfast could have offered a few more options. Just a heads up, one staff member was a bit off, but it didn’t overshadow my great experience overall! ☕️

    historic architecture
    prime location
    unique charm
    small room

    The location stands out, right in the heart of the old town, making it easy to explore the winding streets and nearby cafes. The charming building showcases historic architecture, giving a unique touch that contrasts the modern hotels elsewhere.

    Some rooms are quite tiny, making it hard to navigate and enjoy your space. The lack of air conditioning can leave you sweltering during warmer days, with temperatures often hard to manage. Wi-Fi? Forget about reliable connections. it's as dodgy as a blaster at close range—almost useless for anything more than basic browsing. The breakfast leaves much to be desired, with limited options and a lack of variety. The need to lug your bags up to the lobby due to the absence of an elevator is not ideal, especially after a long journey. Overall maintenance feels neglected. worn-out furniture and outdated decor are all over the place.

    great park views and easy access to main attractions

    We had such a fantastic time exploring the beautiful fraumunster church and relaxing in platzspitz park, both just a short walk away from the hotel. it made our weekend city strolls so enjoyable. The staff were super friendly and helpful during our stay.

    friendly staff
    sketchy key policy
    limited breakfast

    The hotel's location in the heart of Zurich is fantastic, making it easy to explore the old town. The staff are friendly and check-in was a breeze. However, the room key policy feels a bit sketchy, and the breakfast options were limited. Overall, a pleasant experience.

    Perfect location for exploring!

    We were super close to the train station and right in the heart of the city. Our room was nice and spacious with big windows, and we loved the cozy vibe. The breakfast was a steal with so many options! Just wish there were more outlets in the room, was tricky to plug everything in.

    It was just a suitable option for a short stay in Zurich with decent value for money. The wine cellar was a fun surprise during our visit. Consider asking about local dining options for authentic experiences.
