Low price for Zurich but not so for Europe! Basic apartment-style accommodation. I ordered a single room and was placed on the top floor with sloping ceilings and tram noise from two sides. The rooom felt highly claustrophobic, since I am tall (190 cm) and had to constantly stoop for fear of nocking my head everywhere. Limited hanging space for... More

Modern appartment hotel very clean relaxed environment handy transport links to City Centre (ten minutes on tram). Rooms finished to high standard and bathroom had a whirlpool bath. Kitchen cupboards well stocked with necessary equipment. We stayed two nights and our room was on 2nd floor, our first night had people in the room above - the floors being laminate... More

OK, you need to catch the tram to get to California House, but the public transport system in Zurich is so good that you hardly notice it. It would be better if the front desk had staff working there for a little longer but it was really comfortable and the area away from the chaos of the city. I would... More

We stayed here the night before our flight out of Zurich. It's in a good location - just jump on trolley 15 to get to the Aldstadt. The rooms are odd shaped, but not too small. There was no heat, so the rooms were cold. You can hear everything going on in the hotel - people talking in the hallway,... More

This is a good hotel for this price category in Zurich. Pros: spacious and very well equiiped rooms; very helpful staff. Contras: Our room was under the roof, it was very hot in the room, and there was a strong smell due to wetness or something else.

First off we had directions for the Hotel California not the California House and after walking up the entire hill to this location, we were hot, sweaty, and tired only to find that they did not have an elevator (lift) and our rooms were on the top floor. Nice apartments, great views but NO AIR and very uncomfortable beds. This... More
