While certainly not the Four Seasons, Hotel St. Georges did the trick for two budget travellers in the highly overpriced city of Zurich.. Cozy hotel, well maintained rooms, walking distance from city center, continental breakfast included. All in all, a good value low key option.

Rooms are simple and liveable for the price paid. However, if you're intending to walk, the hotel is about 20min walk from the hauptbahnhof and 15min walk from paradeplatz. The service is also not great, it was hard to elicit much information from the desk staff and the 3 hotel staff we came across either didn't speak english or didn't speak it very well. the neighbourhood is certainly very quiet if that's what you're looking for.

Stayed 1 night for 166CHF, which was pretty much £100 on the day which told me, for what I got, how rediculously expensive this town was. The room was a square with a bed in it, as well as the bathroom sink, with the shower and toilet in the bathroom. It had a tacky lino floor and the tv was so small yet so high it was unwatcheable. The 'buffet breakfast' was a piece of Swiss bread and jam, no toast or even cereal.

The location was alright as it wasn't too far from the tram stop - there isn't much else in the area, one review I just read said in the heart of the old town which is categorically wrong. Thankfully I was there for Easter Monday as there appeared to be roadworks going on so it would probably make for a noisy wake up call. At the same time I was there for Easter Monday and everything was shut, even the souvenir stores. This was annoying as being the end of our trip we intended to buy most of our things. I would say not to just stay somewhere else but don't even go to Zurich as it has absolutely nothing. See the Rhine falls and head elsewhere.

You get great value with this hotel considering the crippling price of hotels in Zurich's centre. Excellent airport shuttle service (25 Euros each way) and transport links easily accessible as well as being an easy 10-15 minute walk into the city centre...Friendly and helpful staff, though not so much of a buffet breakfast, also a massive starbucks next to the nearby tram stop if you need a fix! Also a little mini-supermarket express a short walk away from the tram stop for any extras you might need. My room didn't have a phone in it like advertised but there was a communal phone in the hall directly in front of my room so not a problem. They don't really have a separate room for luggage store, you just leave your belongings in the foyer area. The area and people are pretty trustworthy so I wouldn't worry! Excellent hotel and I would definately stay again if in Zurich again. Great if you're on a budget! Great experience and the people were incredibly friendly and helpful.
