Easy access from tram, we came in and it was a wonderful welcoming, updated rooms! Transportation is right as you enter or exit the lobby way. Rooms as spacious and clean! Breakfast is great!
Great location next to tram stop and one stop down from station. Room was clean and reasonable size. Option to check in online to save time on arrival. Inadequate qualities of tea/coffee/milk in room but staff were happy to resolve. At over 30 CHF per person per night, breakfast was too expensive for 4 people for 2 nights, but there is an Aldi one tram stop away, so made and ate breakfast in room.
Very nice and clean rooms. Lovely staff very welcoming. Excellent connectivity from airport to hotel and the main city. Highly recommended. I would definitely be coming back to the same property.
Property is newly renovated so nice and clean. Restaurant on the property was excellent. You only need to to take one team from zurich airport and the station is right in front.
The staff exhibited a lack of professionalism and did not demonstrate a customer service attitude. They erroneously charged me twice for breakfast, and when I presented my bank statement as proof, they did not even attempt to apologize for the inconvenience. Especially, the personnel at the front desk on December 25 at 9 am were highly disappointing; they directed me to the restaurant to resolve the issue rather than attempting to address it themselves. Consequently, I will not return, as the service was unsatisfactory and the prices were excessive.
