The rooms at Hotel D are very modern and VERY clean. The staff at the Front Desk could not have been more helpful and professional. Every question we had concerning directions, they would pull out a map and show us the route. Excellent location to historic district, shopping, restaurants, trolleys etc. I would definitely stay there again. More

We stayed 5 nights at this hotel and enjoyed every one of them. The rooms are very modern and newly remodeled. Yes, they aren't small but they are fully adequate by European standards and they are so well organized that we didn't mind the size. The location was great, right near the tram stop for all sorts of lines (and... More

Didn’t like this hotel at all. The room was claustrophobic, the staff was neither pleasant nor helpful, and the breakfast was lousy. The only two good things: location and free wi-fi in the room. Too expensive for what you get. Stay elsewhere. More

Modern hotel with very good facilities in an excellent location close to the Rhine and the town centre. Good for a stopover or for a couple of nights. Rooms are well equipped but on the small side. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Swiss prices though! More

The rooms were sparkling clean and very modern with most amenities supplied - free wifi, telephone, huge TV, air con. The bathrooms were of a good size, as were the showers and baths. Loved the automatic shades. Only thing... More
