First of all Zic Zac Rock Hotel looked more like a Hostel. My room was ridiculously small, under the room ( all the neighbourg could see the inside !), and very very very old. The sink was just next to my bed and all the furniture looked dusty and really cheap ( and not very well conserved). The room basically... More

.... and you have to treat it as such, go with the flow, laugh at how bad some of it is and generally stay cool and remember that Switzerland is an expensive country in which to live and to visit and for the ZZRs excellent location in central Zurich (Old Town) it is convenient and cheap!

Stayed here with 2 female friends as we were on a very tight budget while on a trip to switzerland for work. well, there's a reason it's cheap! the floors slope so badly that you're leaning all the time and the beds moved. the room was a fair size but was dirty and smelly. not to mention the constant noise...

When going to Zurich during my long eurotrip I carefully studied all the reviews about this hotel (mostly negative) but anyway decided to book it, it simply was the cheapest offer in such an expensive city. "Maybe it's not that bad", I thought. But yeah, it was THAT bad and even worse. Single room was awfully small and completely ran... More

The worst hotel I've stayed at ever without question. Paint was peeling from the walls, the rugs were threadbare, the room didn't seem clean, no lamps or other amenities in the room. Our room was nothing like the pictures in the ads. The staff was aggressively unpleasant and unhelpful. I was concerned about the safety of my children. I have... More

This hotel is the worst hotel I was. No parking near the hotel, so if you are coming by car and equipment of a family You have to go almost half a mile walk with luggage to reach the hotel. The hotel is very old and dirty. There is no correlation between the images of the hotel web sites and... More

Der Guest We know that our hotel is a bit old and worn but it's not dirty, as we offer daily housekeeping. Our Hotel is situated in the beautiful Old Town of Zurich which is as well the pedestrian zone of the town. Due to its location there is no parking at the hotel, that's true, but for luggage transportation... More

I stayed 3 nights at Zic Zac Hotel which was to be included with TV, the TV was not working and the person at the reception and manager came out with all sorts of excuses rather than admitting it is just a faulty TV in the room. After few heated words, they refunded 15.50 Franc. Staff is very unhelpful. It... More
