“mixed feelings”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 February 2012

person found this review helpful

We stayed here for two nights on our weekend trip to Zurich. We booked the hotel as it looked nice on the website and the price we got was really good (for expensive Zurich).
We had a standard room on the first floor right opposite the elevator. The room was tiny, only the bed fit in and you barely couldn't move. Other hotels wouldn't even sell this as single room.
There were scratches all over the wall, the bathroom had tape behind the sink so the rusty area was covered, even though the room didn't look old it was really in a bad condition. I don't know if they jsut gave us a bad room and the others were better.
But what we liked about the hotel was the great and friendly staff, very welcoming people. Also the public areas looked nice and contemporary. The location is very good, few stops with the tram to the main station, and you can even walk within 15 minutes.
We also like the many small "goodies" that were offered in the room: an apple and free water, a full range of those things you get in a hotel (sewing kit, shower gel, shampoo, body lotion etc) was offered, TV programme, maps and info about Zurich, and the bathroom had a real hairdryer!

Would we stay there again - maybe as the location and the price was good, but next time we would definitely ask for another room.

“Overpriced, but ok”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 December 2011

The staff was lovely and helpful and the place nice and clean. But the room was absolutely tiny, the internet was not working (and if it had been, it would have been eye-wateringly expensive), the breakfast expensive (and didn't even include an egg!). Had it been cheaper, I would certainly recommend it. But at this price I'll do my best to avoid it in the future.

“Nice hotel, good service, great location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 December 2011

I have been staying at the Leonardo Rigihof Hotel for the 3rd time and enjoy the service. On this visit, the staff went out of their way to organise lactose free milk for breakfast. Nice touch!

The rooms are comfortable, offer all amenities except air conditioning which doesn't matter for most of the year.

I highly recommend this hotel both for business and leisure travellers.

“Nice Boutique Hotel, Excellant Service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 November 2011

I stayed at hotel leonardo with a business colleague of mine and found the hotel to be excellant. We are quite used to staying in large (more expensive) business class hotels. That sometimes have greater facilities than Hotel Leonardo. Having noted this point, whenever I return to Zurich I will always head back for this hotel. The rooms were of a good quality, the bed was very comfortable (I had an excellant sleep). The staff in the hotel were exceptionaly good, everyone from the hotel manager, to the check in desk staff and the barman and other staff were warm helpful and excellant. The check in desk team, gave us frequent pieces of advice on how to take the very short tram ride (2/3 mins) to the ctr of town, they even gave us excellant recommendations to some great resturants. In order to make your stay at this hotel great its important to engage with the staff, once you do this the hotel turns from into a great 5 star hotel.

Room Tip: I request a room on the rear of the hotel away from the elevator. it was nice and quite.

“Great location, poor service”

The hotel is close to the center (5-6 tram stops from the city center) but other then that not a good choice for Zurich. The room was not clean ( toilet was dirty...) and the service was below standard.
Worth it if you need to crash for a night but if you're staying for longer find another place
