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

ibis Styles Zurich City Center

10/10 Excellent

"The location is great. Such a short safe walk to the train station. Only issue was it took me way too long to figure out how to turn on the lights in the hotel room. I actually had to Google it. Would definitely recommend adding instructions in room or told upon check in. For those wondering, you have to put your key card in a slot by the bathroom door in order for the lights to work."

Zurich Marriott Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing stay at the Marriott Zurich! Everything was exceptionally clean, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. The location is excellent and very convenient for exploring the city. One of the highlights of our stay was the beautiful view of the Limmat River from our room, it was absolutely gorgeous and made the experience even more special. The staff was also outstanding: extremely helpful, attentive, and welcoming throughout our stay. Everything about the hotel exceeded our expectations. We truly enjoyed our time here and would absolutely stay again. Highly recommended!"

Radisson Hotel & Suites Zurich

10/10 Excellent

"It’s a very large hotel with A Huge amount of rooms. Only 1 in house restaurant. Minimal lobby space. No lounge bar or coffee shop. I’ve never been in a Radisson or any other airport hotel with such minimal limited public space. On arrival. One of our rooms had no electricity. We needed help to sort out a fuse issue at midnight. The room was spacious. Bed comfy, Plenty of towels and amenities. It’s very much a ‘room based’ hotel. No space in the lobby for meeting friends and having a coffee. Lobby space needed constant attention. With so many people in such a small space. Litter was everywhere. Restaurant was busy with a fun vibe. We were advised to eat to breakfast early as food runs out and new food not replenished."

Mövenpick Hotel Zuerich-Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Clean hotel, helpful staff. I liked the bar and the restaurant at the hotel. Also the rooms were spacious and clean. The pillows might need to be replaced at some point. But overall it was a great stay for the night between our flights. Great access to and from airport with the free shuttle."
