      "very close to all the shopping and transportation." Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 25, 2013

      Liked the hotel, first room, the bathroom too small for comfort. They did change our room without a problem, for a room that was slightly bigger with a larger bathroom. We were very satisfied. I would consider this hotel again. It is so close to trams and the main station. Also department store across the street. Very quiet for a downtown hotel.

    Located in the center of old Zurich, this clean and simple hotel charges reasonable prices... by Swiss standards! Rooms are large, and the toilet and... bath/shower rooms are shared (and immaculate). Wifi works. The hotel is located above a fairly noisy bar, but the high-tech insulated windows are effective at keeping out the noise at night. The (minor) improvement I would suggest is the addition of a simple desk or table in the room, ideally with its own electrical outlet and lamp. by a Hotels.com guest on 10/29/12

    This was a great price for a clean nice room, with a sink in the room. Bathroom and shower were shared, but only 3 rooms per floor and this was never an issue. Very nice hotel staff. Chocolates at the check in desk were a nice welcome! there is an elevator in the first floor restaurant that goes up to all floors. otherwise carry your bags up 1 flight […] to get to elevator to all floors. Old building, but worked out great, I would stay here again, great location. The airport told me to take a train to the central station, but there's another station only 1.5 blocks from this hotel, if I had known I could've taken a different airport train to right to the hotel. Was easy either way, the trams run fast too. Breakfast was nice, breads were delicious, and cheeses too. Read more

    It was the best surprise of my European trip. Best location in Zurich for the best price, really. Very clean room, good breakfast, safe, no issues with shared bathroom. Our room was uniquely decorated African style, very pleasant. The only thing is no front desk worker between 8 pm till the morning. So, if you have any questions for tomorrow, don't […] wait till the night before to ask them. Read more

    The rooms had a lot of character, but they did show their age. Rooms were clean, but the walls were extremely thin and it was difficult to sleep due to the noise outside and the slamming of doors within the hotel. Also, I was under the impression that the triple room had its own bathroom, but it was actually a shared bathroom. I would recommend this […] hotel to people planning to go out and get a few drinks and not planning on going to bed before 1 am. Good location. Read more

    Fun urban hotel in great location on cobblestone road in downtown Zurich. Would be great for singles or couples. Rooms were fun and clean. Probably not so good for families. Breakfast not served until 9am which was a hassle for early risers.

    Location is great and rooms are satisfactory, though basic. Price is also okay by Zurich standards. However, even for a heavy sleeper like myself, there was considerable noise issues. In the morning at weekdays there was street deliveries from 6.30am. At night there was constant noise from the bar outdoor area till the early hours. Then the corridor […] areas echo into the room and every sound could be heard. Nice staff and everybody was friendly but unfortunately the persistent noise issue means I cannot recommend this hotel.

    Located in old town. The neighborhood was quite and the room clean. An unexpected extra was a nice view over the rooftops (only from the top floor). The only downside is the shared bathroom, however, this hotel is very cheap by Zurich standards.
