The location is great, right next to the train station but definitely not noisy.

Yue Germany

The hotel is three blocks from train station, a short walk for anyone. Close to fine dining and shopping. Staff was helpful to the top! Liked the desk area and the fact there were two chairs available for the desk.

Kenneth United States of America

Location It was near to train station and also right next to city center with almost every thing accessible

Harmeet Germany

Very convenient location just five minutes walk from the Zurich main train station, surprisingly quiet, good coffee at breakfast, and a coffee machine in the lobby for only CHF0.50!

Jeffery United States of America

Wehowever we found a God bakery nearby. We liked the position of the hotel...so close to the old part of town /did not have breakfast included

Suzanne Italy

Excellent breakfast with made to order coffee, breads, yogurt and even a meat and cheese selection. Very friendly and knowledgeable front desk staff. Quiet and clean hotel. Good communication.

Terry United States of America

Location, staff, room on 5th floor, good bathroom, good shower

Mary United States of America

Rather than take the shuttle recommended by the hotel, I took a chance and rode a train from the airport to the Hauptbahnhof (main train station) in Zurich. The hotel was on a street a short walk across the river and then some from the train station (A 15 minute walk or so depending on your pace). I had intentionally booked a flight back to the States with an overnight layover in Zurich. The location of the hotel allowed me to spend several hours walking along the river as well as walk to an art exhibit about a mile away. I easily caught a 2:35 pm train to the airport with an hour and a half to spare before my flight. The hotel let me keep my luggage there after checkout at no cost while I toured the city.

Anthony United States of America

The location is walkable from the train station, but it is a challenging uphill walk with baggage. The breakfast is very good.

Gayle United States of America

The location was excellent, just a few minutes walk from the main Zurich train station. The hotel is located on a tree lined, quiet street so street noise was not a problem. We opted for the included breakfast which I'd call a continental breakfast plus (cheeses, some meats, and hard boiled eggs were the plus). Adequate and more than filling to start the day. We decided to stay at the Bristol on 3 different occasions during our vacation as we transited Zurich to other destinations. It met all of our travel needs for a very reasonable cost.
