The Savoy is centrally located, convenient for shopping, touring the Old Town and access to the main railway station. Despite its grand appearance, the hotel has the feel of a family run operation and everything ticks along smoothly representling the best traditions of Swiss hotels. My occasional requests for special assistance, for example, upon late arrival a pressed shirt for... More

Perhaps unsurprisingly, many of my favourite hotels around the world sum up the very essence of a nation. For example: The Imperial in Tokyo - huge, busy, ultra-efficient, caught in a time-warp, slightly other-worldly; The Alvear in Buenos-Aires: louche, decadent, charming, and thoroughly outdated. And then there is Zurich's Savoy. Think of Switzerland and you probably think of mountains, lakes... More

Stayed here a couple of nights while on business. Pros: I couldn't have asked for a better location. In my spare time, I was able to explore the heart of Zurich on foot. I easily walked around both sides of the river, walked to the lake, and took in the beautiful city. It's also minutes away from the train station,... More

I stayed here while on business in Zurich but will not do so again. I wanted to get a shirt ironed but it was impossible. I was not allowed to use an iron, nor would they identify someone who could iron it for me until after my meeting started in the morning. Most importantly, they were horrible about it, completely...

This hotel is basically all about the location. It has the best location in Zurich but also probably the most arrogant one. In the front desk you feel like you have to appologize because you wanted to stay at their hotel. Does not offer anything special except very clean and nice rooms. Avoid single rooms, the bed is the size... More

I have decided to no longer stay at the Savoy on my future trips to Zurich. Two stays in a row, the room rate charged was different from what I booked, with no acknowledge from the reception of error on their part -- and I am not willing to test the "things happen in 3s" hypothesis on this one. Despite... More

Stayed here on business on two separate occasions -- two years apart (07 and 08). First class hotel, first class accomodations. Center of town and walking distance to the old city bars and restaurants. Lovely rooms with all amenities. First class reception and service. Look forward to my next trip.... More

I was put up at the Savoy by my host Swiss company, so did not see the bill. I understand it is expensive. The hotel was very, very clean. The rooms nicely appointed, if a little spartan - mine was a single, with the bed against the wall. Shower is over the bath. Staff were efficiently friendly, although my needs... More

The Savoy is right off Bahnstrasse in an excellent area of Zurich. Zurich is an expensive city, safe, clean but not very tourist friendly. The Savoy had both good and bad staff, with the bad, very bad. Restaurant, Bar and some desk staff were hostile and arrogant. Breakfast at the hotel costs more than a 4 star meal in Paris.... More
