    Due to the tiny size of the rooms and the outside noise, I wouldn't stay there again.

    Reception staff extremely unhelpful and unfriendly. Extremely small rooms and noisy. The property needs a refresh as it's very tired and the furnishings in the rooms are terrible.

    Location was good and bed was comfortable however that was about it in favourable comments.

    The bedroom needed a mirror. The combined bath/shower had a fixed shower door which meant you had to get into the bath to switch the shower on. There was no main light just lamps. There was only 1 comfortable chair in the room despite it being a double for 2 people. If you are sensitive to noise do not stay in room 108 - it is on the first floor directly above the bar and faces directly onto the street. The trams and road pass close by. We were able to open the windows during the day/evening but it didn’t feel safe/comfortable to leave open during the night. The person who checked us in wasn’t particularly friendly or welcoming. We were a bit later than planned (about midnight) due to flight delay but I had messaged to let them know so they did not think we were a no show and confirmed they had 24 hour reception. The person only spoke to get our name, give us our key and tell us our room number. They did not tell us where the lift was or how to get to the room so had to ask. None of the usual information about the hotel, how to access help/reception, wishing you a nice stay etc. I appreciate it was late and we got the minimum information but we felt like an inconvenience. However other staff we dealt with - on check out, when asking for a city map etc were helpful and friendly.

    The location was excellent and the best thing about this hotel. The train station is just opposite across the bridge and you are handy for supermarkets, old town etc. The room had plenty of space (superior double), was clean and the bed was very comfortable. Daily room cleaning. The bathroom was a good size and the shower was powerful and hot. The air con was needed given the weather, although it wasn’t the best/strongest A/C it helped. Despite being directly next to the street the windows kept out most noise, it wasn’t quiet but you are in the middle of a city so this is to be expected. We did open the window during the day/evening to let fresh in, as we didn’t mind the noise. 12pm check out.

    The room !! I paid extra for a river view room and we were put in an attic room on the 6th floor with a very small window to see the river from - nothing at all like the rooms when I made the selection. Half the room is taken up with a concrete sloping roof with dormer window so hitting your head is a regular occurrence when getting to the 2nd suitcase because that’s the only place it fits and if you want to make coffee you have to bend right over to get to the machine and I’ll guarantee you’ll hit your head making it !!! Don’t take a river view room on the 6th floor!

    Its location is perfect for train travellers and for those wanting to explore old town and the river - lots of dining places in the area close by.

    The only issue I had was the roof eating up a portion of my room which made it feel like I do not have enough space but apart from that I don't have any issues.

    Although the room was small, which is expected for rooms in Zurich, it was very cosy and the bed itself was super comfortable. I was glad that the pillows were not flat like the usual pillows.

    Being told that the twin room we booked 9 months ago wasn't available. We were then found a twin room with a balcony over looking the river. Sounded great and it was quite a nice room but but the blind was broke so couldnt go out on the balcony as couldnt raise the blind. Other than that a nice room but sticky floor by bed!!

    All good really - see below.
