    Room is very nice, but would like more/better/stronger light to do computer work and be able to read better.

    Very good breakfast. Baking the eggs was wonderful. We have never seen such fresh eggs before!!

    Coming by car it was slightly difficult as the direction with google maps were not very clear, also due to some construction work that day the sign of the hotel was not so clear. No major issues during our stay and would stay again in this hotel as both the hotel and the city was very nice.

    Staff were really kind and helpful. Room size was big and comfortable. The location was great, and the area around it was beautiful. We were offered a car parking just next to the building.

    Nothing.

    The friendly and helpful staff, the location (close to tram stop, theater, universities, supermarket and at walking distance from the central station), how the room and the bathroom are furnished (having people using them in mind). As an example: the bathroom was small, but thanks to shelves and towel-hooks very well located, everything found its place.

    The price for the room is a little bit on the expensive side, considering what was offered.

    Breakfast is very good and in a nice setting. It was vedry good that the check-out was at 12 and not at 11.

    there was only 1 small towel in the bathroom plus a facecloth. I do not think hotels need to provide huge towels, but - bearing the environment in mind- 2 small ones would be reasonable.

    try friendly staf. Good location.

    Breakfast was disappointing. On Sunday, when you don't have any breakfast options outside the hotel close by, I paid 30 francs for quite a basic breakfast, which you need to cook yourself

    Clean, comfortable room, very good state of amenities. Friendly receptionist, though some stuff has difficulty with English. Very quiet location, good for relaxing, but quite close to central zurich. Next to ETH

    Very soft pillows, I had to request a second. I wish more hotels kept firm pillows on hand for those that prefer them. The loacation is a little bit out of the city center, you so have to walk / tram back and forth.

    Breakfast was great. They have you cook your own eggs how you like them on tiny frying which was cool. Staff was friendly and helpful. Room (single) was small but comfortable and cozy. Wifi was very reliable.

    I stayed here with my kids just for a night before going up to the mountains. Quiet calm street in a good location. Very close to the wonderful art museum and fantastic zoo which worked well for us. Friendly staff and good food, nice breakfast. Enjoyed the design too. Dinner was expensive for what it was but perhaps more a reflection of Switerland than the hotel itself. Room spacious and comfortable.

    There was no air conditioning on a really really hot week. I understand it is not usual to have AC in Switzerland so it is fine and there was a fan provided. But it is worth flagging for future stays.

    Great location, staff was really nice and helpful. the breakfast was really nice. Staff was really helpful with late check in. The room was large and facilities comfy. The pillow menu was a really nice touch.

    Hotel is a little bit away from the Old town and river. I was there on a Saturday/Sunday and the few restaurants around the hotel and the hotel restaurant were all closed. Walk to old town restaurants is at least 15 mins away. Hotel is ideally suited for people visiting the University as this hotel is in the middle of all the University buildings. Though hotel itself was fine, would recommend choosing a hotel in Old Town if you are a tourist.

    Nice hotel with good sized rooms. Friendly front desk staff.
