Stayed here last winter during a 3 day break with my wife. The staff are very friendly and helpful, as they are all over the city, and the location is superb for sightseeing and for evening entertainment. However, the room was very small and we paid A LOT of money for the privilege. Having said that, we didn't have any... More

Grüezi Rorski1 It is nice to read that you enjoyed your stay with us, thank you for sharing your thoughts. Our Hotel Helmhaus is a small boutique hotel in the oldtown of Zurich with its small medieval houses and guildhalls. Having a hotel in one of those wonderful, traditional and historic buildings puts restrictions on the size of the rooms.... More

These are the outstanding qualities of this hotel, which is a tiny hotel extremely well located, at walking distance from almost any touristic location in Zurich. We never walked more than 20 minutes (how good is Zurich to walk when you can not do it in your own home town). The hotel is basically a place to sleep,and to have... More

I was greeted warmly after a very long journey and immediately felt at home. Reception staff were exceptionally helpful. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious, the immaculate preparation area visible from the tables. Beautiful, spotless surroundings, a very good night - what more can one ask? More

This is a great hotel with great central location. The breakfast is delicious and fresh and included in the room rate. The nightcap (also offered any time of the day) is a great way to warm up at the end of the day and is yummy. The rooms are comfortable and very clean and the bathrooms adequate but not very... More

In all other respects this is a wonderful hotel. Excellent location not too far away from the centre of Zurich, quiet (excellent sound-proofing), comfortable beds, spotlessly clean, staff who could direct us to anything and everything we needed, drinks on arrival at reception, flawless English spoken, well-designed bathrooms, and reasonable breakfast (I think the cooked might have been much better...
