Stayed here before on one and two night trips. This trip was a one night stay for business meetings. Rooms clean, well appointed with complimentary bar in room, with water, beer, pop, nuts and chocolate - nice touch. Good outdoor lunch patio restaurant and very nice breakfast restaurant with great service and food. I was a little surprised at size... More

Lovely old hotel that has been updated with modern features. I had the spa suite. I think they did an excellent job of pairing old with new. The room was simply charming and quite spacious for a European hotel. Service was first class. I loved the bar area and we kept going back after moving to another hotel as we... More

The entrance is unimpressive as is the small street that the hotel is located on, but from the service at check-in to the decor, size of rooms and every aspect of my one night stay, I was incredibly impressed by this hotel. The room (303 in my case) was very large with very cool decor blending classic wooden beams with... More

This hotel is member of the leading hotels of the world chain. It consists of several smaller buildings build together. The style is contemporary and the interior is very nice. A true 5 star luxury hotel in any way, with great service and fantastic food. The bar is a GEM with great service and even better ambience. The location is... More

Staying here approx one week every month since October 2012. Having stayed in many other hotels in Zurich, this is my favourite, even so it's not directly at the lake but very central. The rooms are individual and tasteful, nice bathrooms- especially in the Augustiner building. Staff very attentive, calling you by name- they can't do enough for you. Widder... More

This is a nicely furnished place (if you like mid-century modernism) with very pleasant staff, in an excellent location. But watch out for the beds! Our double was in fact two mattresses butted up to each other, and the bed had that inexplicable (and annoyingly common in the Germanic parts of Europe) thing where you each get your own small...

We stayed there in a junior suite overlooking the Augustinergasse, and that was exceptional. Everything in the room and the bathroom was outstanding. We were just a little disappointed there isn't any spa in the hotel, and also by the breakfast, which was a little lower in quality and service (we hadn't the chance to dine at the restaurant, which...

I was there twice and hope to come back. Fantastic..!!! Nothing to add just miss that time. Take a 2 level room wtih an exit to the roof to enjoy the bells. High level service and professional staff....Very good location... if you plan to leave the hotel during your stay:) You have to explore Widder..........

The Widder Hotel is a beautiful hotel in center of Zurich and only a few steps away from the Banhhofstrasse. We had a deluxe room which was very spacious, tastefully decorated with a mix of traditional and modern artwork and filled with original pieces of designer furniture. A decent quality roll away bed, a child-sized bath robe, sweets and a... More

We visited on business and chose the hotel partly because of recommendations from colleagues but also because of its very central location in a charming old part of the city. Our colleague and we were both upgraded to historic rooms overlooking a quiet cobbled street. Parts of the centuries old building still decorated the rooms - ours had an elaborate... More
