Clean room with comfortable bed. Beware booking through Expedia. I booked the room with the exposed beams and slanted ceiling with a shower. I received a basic room with a tall bathtub. Not conveniently located to catch a tram. Very congested walk from main train station.

The hotel is in a very nice location closed to ETH University. Hotel room is cozy. It looks new and has nice decorations. The balcony is a bonus. The only comment that we have is the shower bath area which is a bit small. The daily breakfast with a good variety of healthy food. Reception staff is responsive and helpful. Overall, it is a very comfortable place to stay.

Wonderful Boutique Hotel

Hotel was perfect for what we wanted. Only a short walk to Old Town and train. Great breakfast. An extra perk we didn’t count on were free passes to Kunsthaus Zurich, Switzerland’s largest art museum. It was also within walking distance.

The staff was excellent recommended places to eat and things to do. They even had a free museum pass for an excellent Art museum. The room was large, comfortable beds and had air conditioning. The breakfast was good, but I missed having bacon. There were 2 great coffee machines. We would definitely stay here again.

a/c did not work so it was super hot and we couldnt sleep well. had to open the windows, but it was so noisy because there is a major road just below the hotel. It's not a great location unless you are there for the Uni. Otherwise it is a hike to get to more interesting old town areas.

The staff were very helpful and friendly and we were grateful to be able to check in when we arrived early. They also stored our luggage and provided somewhere to shower and change before our late flight. The rooms felt new and clean and the beds were very comfortable. Breakfast was included and delicious. Location is very central, an easy walk from the train station. Would happily stay here again and recommend to others.

Pros: great location, walkable to the train station, restaurants, etc; great breakfast and patio area. Cons: rooms were small; air conditioning was anemic and pre-set (could not adjust); expensive for what it was ($300/night for two).
