The hotel is just a short walk from Stadelhofen train station and even shorter walk from the lake. The rooms are colourful and have what you need. However, when I was there, the air-con didn't work and it felt hot at night even though it was only May. The breakfast was good and they also offer hot dishes to choose from. I guess the price was OK considering the Zurich price level.

My husband and I stayed here for one night. The staff was friendly and both the check-in and check-out were easy. I loved the theme of the hotel... very cute. The rooms were very spacious and clean and the breakfast in the morning was very good. The location was great, I just wish parking was a bit easier. I would stay here again.

We were only in Zurich for 2 days so we picked the Hotel California for location and then the price.

We were quite shocked at the prices of hotels in Zurich, so this hotel could be considered 'budget' compared to others, though still not a cheap hotel!

The hotel is in a great location in the old town, close to everything you need, including lots of restaurants and cafes.

Check-in was quick and easy at a small desk, the girl also turned out to be the cleaner, waitress, and tourist information help. If the desk is empty just call on the phone and she comes straight away.

The hotel was covered in American / Eagles graphics at every opportunity, so fun rather than classy!

Rooms were spacious, modern, with great bathroom, comfy beds, but very floppy pillows.

Internet access was fast and free which was very handy.

We asked for a room on the top (4th) floor, and glad we did, as the hotel is above a restaurant and can be a bit noisy. However most of the noise came from people meeting and chatting in the pedestrianised streets late at night, so i think most of the (more expensive) hotels in this area would have a similiar problem on the weekend.

Breakfast was included and was great, there were the normal range of continental selections, as well as anything warm and cooked off the menu.

Overall we would definutely stay at this hotel again.

Different type of place... staff available and helpful! Excellent location except the bar downstairs when they continue to live it up and we had a room above the bar one night. Ear plugs took care of that nicely. Otherwise their room Euro sized smalling area was fine and we enjoyed Zurich and the surroundings. Plenty of restos and cafes around, the tram is right in front and bus terminal for outer tours is nearby. Good place to stay for the money, hard to beat in Zurich. Can't be the location for the price and service a very polite and speedy, helpful and friendly.
