    Air conditioning needs to be a little colder in the rooms. I know this nothing to do with the hotel but with the Swiss Eco program. Please improve and everything will be perfect!

    Our stay at the Alex Lake Zurich Hotel was absolutely wonderful. The hotel's stunning lakeside location offers breathtaking views and a serene atmosphere, making it the perfect getaway. The facilities and rooms are beautifully designed, providing both comfort and elegance. The reception staff were incredibly professional and welcoming, with a special shout-out to Michael, who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was truly enjoyable. We especially loved dining at the hotel's restaurant each evening. The entire staff was top-class—warm, attentive, and so much fun! Every meal was a delight, and we thoroughly enjoyed every moment. Thanks to all the guys, you were each wonderful in your own way. And we will never forget the expert Water Sommelier! Magnificent team. We can't wait to return to the Alex Lake Zurich Hotel. Highly recommended!

    I wish they did not charge for the boat and that the rooms were slightly bigger. Although I would for sure stay there again. One of the best places I’ve stayed at.

    The staffs, view and cleanliness are top tier. Amazing service. The breakfast is also great. You just have to make sure you ask the hostess for the main dishes

    I love the service, attitude, positivity of the front desk staff as well as the staff who helped to carry our luggage and welcomed us the moment we stepped foot into the hotel. They exceeded my expectations! This is such as nice place to stay in Zürich. The environment is entirely different from that near the Zurich Main Train Station. The room design is modern, v clean. The kitchen utensils were all of high quality, vv clean as well. Totally no issue for a clean freak like me. They even provided chauffeur service from hotel to the nearest train station. Service was just ups!! From the start till the end. Will definitely stay here again, if I go Thalwil!
