    We loved just about everything about Goethe House in Zurich. You can't get a much better location. Beautifully decorated and so big and roomy! Fiorenzo was fantastic to work with and communicated quickly. It was just such a wonderful experience.

    We stayed during a weekend and it was very loud at night. We could have used some earplugs or a warning. During the week it was fine.

    The apartment is beautiful and in a prime location. The host was so accommodating and let us checkin early with our two babies after a long flight. He had a crib setup ready for us and waters in the fridge.

    Great location but close to Europes biggest clock face so if you’re not good at blocking out bell chimes maybe not the place for you. Winter isn’t so bad but summer with the windows open might be a bit loud.

    Very quirky place in a great location. Well equipped, comfortable and clean.

    Spacious! And love everything about the place. They have the right balance between classic wooden Swiss house style and modern way of living. Just live the place couldn't say more

    Authentic Old City apartment with modern amenities, pack light due to steep set of stairs

    • Stayed 3 nights

    Be aware that there are two flights of stairs to reach the apartment. A challenge with large suitcases since they are narrow and uneven steps. There was also an automatic overhead light in the hallway between bath and bedroom. Nice when your hands are full but too bright in the middle for night trips to bathroom. There are also uneven thresholds, so watch your step between rooms. The biggest challenge was noise from bar next door. Smokers stood outside and talked loudly late into Friday and Saturday night. A fan was provided for background noise, but light sleepers should be aware. It was quieter on Sunday night. Note: Uber cannot meet you within old city. We had to walk about a block to catch our ride.

    The property is just as lovely as advertised. The living room view over St Stephen's church was out of a story book. The snow made it even more magical. The location is great, short walk to the tram stop and Christmas market. The modern kitchen and bath were spotless. It had a huge shower and separate toilet area. The bed was comfortable with feather pillows and duvet.

    Perfect for a family of 4! We were surprised at how spacious the apartment was. We had everything we needed for a few night stay. The location in Old Town is exceptional for sightseeing and exploring and the communication with the owner is FABULOUS. She really made sure we were taken care of and had what we needed. I wouldn’t hesitate to return.

    I can't think of any improvements.

    This was our second stay at the property. Betina messaged before we arrived and so we could collect the key on arrival. The apartment is very spacious, clean and well appointed. It is perfect for a stay in the centre of Zurich, and Betina is very helpful and attentive. We love the sound of the church bells at 7pm and 7am, though may not be to everyone's taste!

    We knew going into the stay that there wasn’t any AC and it was unseasonably hot. It was rather noisy on the weekends from the restaurants and bars in the area and we needed to have the windows open to attempt to cool the bedroom down. After a few nights I ended up sleeping in the living room on a very comfortable sofa bed and it was PERFECT! Way better air flow. Ear plugs, eye mask and white noise from the fan did the trick. They mentioned doing some black out blinds and I think this would help a lot keeping the heat out during the day and in the cooler months to block out the street light and for some privacy. Note to self…there are 2 long flights of stairs and no lift so I will pack lighter next time.

    The property is in a fantastic location and was very spacious. It was good value when compared to getting 2 hotel rooms in that area. It was well stocked with things we would need during our stay. Communication was clear and prompt. Loved the energy of the area and the chiming of the bells!
