Near to train station. Convenient to take the train to any other cities for sight seeing.
Many restaurants nearby and also have big supermarkets.
The breakfast was a let down. Not worth paying for the breakfast.

inside the room there is no kettle supply and we need to get hot water from the hallway to get it from coffee machine. Also, I can't find the refrigerator.
The hotel is very close railway station is more convenient for us to carry big luggage, and inside the station there is a lot of shops such as supermarket, bakery and coffee shop.
So far the hotel is good to live.

Sleep here in the midst of Zurich
Very clean and well kept. I booked a single small room (not sure how big of a room you can get). The room was fine - it is very small, smaller than a cabin on a cruise ship. Everything in the room was operational and ‘like new’. Air conditioning was wonderful! Great location near the train and bus station.

Nice Zurich Hotel near Train Station
Hotel was very close to the Zurich train station and centrally located to the main tourist areas. Hotel staff was friendly and let us check in early to one room which was extremely helpful. Rooms were comfortable and clean and quiet though the room we had was adequate from the space point of view. Would stay here again even though the prices were high.

Truly like the hotel. The room was very r
spacious with a large bathroom and perfectly working air conditioners. The hotel is nice a close to the train station, but about 1 mile from places to see and shop. It is difficult to find the hotel, and you need to walk through the train station to get to it, but we made it work
