to get started.

Wonderful breakfast; very helpful staff; extremely clean and in walking distance to Old Town. We traveled as a family of 4 and found the room to be huge and loved the in-room nespresso machine. Would go back!

The Stauffacher Tram Stop, offering tram connections to all parts of Zurich, and the Selnau S-Bahn stop (local trains) are just steps away.

Aussersihl is a great choice for travelers interested in walking, city trips and scenery.

“Very Cool Vibe”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Small Double Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
The portable air-con which was loud and meant the window had to stay open all night. The street was loud because of Zurich Fest so sleep was compromised. The restaurant sat me in a table by the road, when there was 10 other “booked” table by the stream. Next time I would ask what time they were booked for as I had finished my meal and left before any of those prime position bookings, as a hotel guest from the other side of the world. A tad disappointing. The food was delicious though!
I loved the large windows that could open, so you can sit and have a cup of tea looking out over the stream. Top bathroom amenities and designer details throughout. Excellent restaurant down below. Chilled bar area over looking the stream. Good vibe throughout.

The toilet and the shower room do not have any doors and the room is quite small so some people may not be at ease with this situation also hotel closes at 11 pm the door is locked and the staff goes home you still are able to access going out or coming into the hotel but the hotel is really asleep till the morning also for the money paid round about £250 per night you should get a breakfast there’s room for improvement here.
The bed was fine and the restaurant was of a good quality with overall all hotel restaurant and staff were very helpful and efficient typically Swiss.

There was no carpet in the hotel room - it would have been nice to have slippers.
Location was very central, not far from the train station and close to several tram lines. Room was clean and large. I was concerned that it would be noisy as the hotel is located at a busy intersection but with the windows closed this was not an issue. Staff were very friendly. We had requested an early check-in and were able to access our room at 12h00 which was fantastic.
