Two blocks off the Stadelhoffen train station, a short train stop from the airport or central rail station. Close to the Lake, and Bellevue tram station. Easy to access the city from these two places, busy during the day, but no street noise at the night. This is a very delightful hotel, charming in every sense of the word. The... More

Spent quite a bit of time trying to find a hotel in Zurich that wasn't recently renovated (read stripped of character) in an affordable price range. Although this hotel certainly is not inexpensive, we were very happy with our choice. All in all a lovely hotel, good taste evident. Attention to detail throughout. Great sheets, umbrellas available, in-room coffee maker... More

I arrived after a night flight from Canada. The room was understandably not ready when I arrived at 7:00 am. I sat in the small but very comfortable lobby and relaxed. They even brought me cappuccino. Complimentary water bottles and apples are provided on a table in the lobby. My room was ready at 9, as promised, and although not... More

I stayed only one night for business but will return to this hotel on my next trip to Zurich. The hotel has old-world charm mixed with modern convenience. Location is not quite in old town but remains perfect with easy access to trams and the train station. The room was much larger than the normal Swiss hotel room and included... More

Wonderful botique hotel. Location was amazing (less than a block from the lake, one block from the tram and two blocks from the train station -S16 to the airport). Staff were amazing from the restaurant, front desk, manager's cocktail reception and the room attendants. Every single person we encountered was simply spectacular.

Stayed at this wonderful little butique hotel from the 10-11th march 2013. Lovely and friendly staff. Rooms are lovely and have a lot of character. Lovely beds and a fab pillow menu. The breakfastroom/restaurant has amazing decor handdrawn by a local artist. Would reccomend this hotel to any business og lesure traveller wanting to explore Zurich.

Excellent location near Zurich lake, near main street - Bahnhofstrasse (great shops, cafe etc). Very nice, quite rooms (double doors provide absolute silence from neighbors). Small surprises in our room during stay (apples, chocolate) made us smile. Value... we always want to pay less and get more. :-)
