8/10 Very good

The staff was friendly. Check-in was easy. The location was great! Ten minute walk from central train station. The room was clean and quirky, like the hotel. The room itself was not well lit and the pillows were flat. Because we were there in December we didn't have to worry about the a/c.but it was still warm

We spent two nights at Swiss Chocolate by Fassbind in Zurich and really enjoyed our stay. The location was convenient, the room was clean and comfortable, and we loved the fun chocolate-themed decor. A sweet and cozy spot to relax after exploring the city!
Lier, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was a reasonably priced, clean hotel in a very convenient location. Some reviews mentioned the air conditioning didn’t work well but it was definitely cool enough in our room and the weather was very warm during our stay. The rooms were pretty small though like a lot of European hotels.
