When is the best time to go to Hard?

The best time to visit Hard, Canton of Zürich, Switzerland, is during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October) months for pleasant weather and fewer crowds. Spring brings blooming flowers and moderate temperatures, ideal for outdoor activities like hiking or cycling along Lake Zürich. You'll find the lakeside promenades and parks, such as the one near the Hardbad, are particularly enjoyable. It's a lovely time for couples to experience the area's natural beauty without the peak summer rush. Autumn offers crisp air, beautiful foliage, and comfortable temperatures, superb for exploring the local vineyards or taking scenic walks. The area around Hard is known for its access to the Zürichsee and its proximity to the city, making it a convenient base for day trips. Solo travellers might appreciate the quieter atmosphere and the opportunity to enjoy the local culture at their own pace. While summer (July and August) is also popular, it can be busier and hotter.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel’s cancellation deadline – this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Hard hotel for you.

How much is the nightly rate at a Hard hotel?

Hotel prices in Hard often vary, but you can find a great deal on Expedia. Different factors affect nightly hotel rates, such as the time of year or the days of the week you want to book. To find the best deals for your stay, be flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.

Top Hard Hotel Reviews

Zurich Marriott Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great choice whether for business or leisure. Nice breakfast and rooms pretty new."

Ruby Mimi Hotel Zurich by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"What a find! A great hotel just opposite the main train station- convenient for getting to / from the airport, using tramlines - and visiting the Lindt Chocolate experience. Our room was ready before official check-in time - and check in was seamless. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful - especially Shannon. Room was very modern and spacious and we were lucky to be situated just opposite a kitchenette where tea and coffee were available all day. The hotel also has its own cinema - movies in English every evening. We ate in the restaurant that night - food and staff were amazing as was the service in the bar ! Hotel is within easy walking distance of the main shopping area and the old town. Highly recommended - couldn't fault anything. Would gladly stay there again."

Hotel Marta - 1950’s architecture in Zurich’s vibrant old town, near main station

8/10 Good

"The location is excellent except the street the hotel is on is undergoing construction work underground and is all torn up. It can be noisy Monday thru Friday. It’s easy walking distance to just about anywhere you want to go in Zurich. The rooms are very basic , not fancy. Not many power outlets. Only one pillow per person and one towel Beds are ok. Staff is excellent and eager to help in any way. Vegetarian breakfast is okay. Coffee and tea are available free all day Elevator is tiny which is the case all over Switzerland I have found. I would gladly stay here again."
