to get started.

Sarah, United States of America

Very comfortable and clean. Staff very helpful and very polite. Great location.

Chrysoula, South Africa

Wow, the views from the room are simply fantastic, mesmerising! Panoramic views of the Zurich Lake, Limmat River, City Landscape and the beautiful Mountain backdrop. We are so grateful to be given this elegant corner suite on the highest floor, our request was granted. The room was so luxurious and comfy that we spent most of our time in room just gazing out of the floor to ceiling windows (3 huge ones ) enjoying the scenery and soaking ourselves in the atmosphere. The night scenes with the city lighted up with reflections on the river was equally captivating. It was like heaven on earth. The in room complimentary fruits and chocolates added to our joy. Thank you Hotel Storchen for such wonderful memories. We will surely come back to stay in this room when visiting Zurich again next year.

“I took Junior suite with Limmat view.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • 2 rooms
- • Stayed 3 nights
눉- Bad smell on the pillow sheets, I had to use mine. - There is no parking in the property and they`ll charge you CHF 53 for keeping the car in the garage. Also it takes at least 15-20 mins to bring it back. -One more thing that has nothing to do with the hotel: If you're going to the hotel by car the route is really unclear you have to cross a pedestrian area for some reason, it took me +20 mins to reach it even my Garmin couldn't help.
눇-The location is great. -The bed is super comfortable. -The rooms have Apple TV and Nespresso machines you can use them for free. -The Breakfast is delightful. -The staff was helpful. definitely going to stay here again if i came back to Zurich.

눉There is no parking near the hotel we had to park minutes away, we usually kept the car until the next day and then went to pick it up. The public parking is free from 8:00PM until morning time, you could pay for the next day in advance. The public parking was near the hotel couple parkings are available.
눇The hotel is renovated and very elegant and nice. It's located on the lake side, perfect view for morning breakfast. High brand shops very near to the hotel, steps away. The staff were so friendly and kind, concierge was very helpful too. Everything was stunning
