Our stay at Marktgasse Hotel was short but great! The staff at check in were fantastic and very helpful. The welcome drink was a nice touch. The water, coffee, and tea station available 24 hours was also nice. The candy at reception was also nice! The hotel is located in a great area full of shops and restaurants. You are steps away from the sights of Zurich and the tram station . The hotel room was nice and very well kept. I highly recommend a stay at Marktgasse Hotel.

The hotel is very well situated in the old town. Please note there is no parking at the hotel or near it since it is pedestrian walking only, however cabs are allowed to come. The property itself is very clean and the staff were wonderful. I read the reviews before booked the smallest room which says how small it is. I’m 5 foot 2 inches tall, so very short and was in room 404. I could easily touch the ceiling! If you are taller this wouldn’t not be comfortable for someone over 5 foot 8 inches tall. For me it worked and was very clean and the shower was lovely.
