Right near Zurich HB and not far from the airport! Cute rooftop terrace and bar downstairs. Bad drainage in the bathroom if multiple people shower

Perfect for us, so close to train station with our big bags. Close to walk to everything we wanted to see. Self check in was easy enough and breakfast was delicious
This felt quite a basic hotel with minimal staff to help with check in. The room was very small and there was no air conditioning, we arrived during a heatwave so that aspect was not good. On the other hand it was quiet, and just a 5 minute walk to the main train station.
Ultra-boutique hotel very close to the train station. It was a fantastic area with lots of food options nearby. The bed was very cozy and warm. I had an issue with my room and the staff came immediately to help, even though I checked in rather late and resolved it right away.
A comfortable room. Not very big but affordable for the few days I spent in Zurich.
Very close to the station. A lovely restaurant connected to the hotel.
Self Check in was easy.
As there is no hotel staff per se - automated check in and no ammenties I gave those two reviews as a 3 out of 5 - the rest of the hotel, being the room - 10 out of 10 - I love how it is basically beside the train station, which makes it very convenient. Excellent sound proofing so you don't hear the trains - well perhaps a bit - but i love trains so it didn't bother me.
This hotel is very well placed close to the Zurich HB train station, but the interior left a lot to be desired. The underside of the bed was quite dusty, the bathroom sink was slow to drain and one of the sliding bathroom doors didn't close properly.
The downstairs provisions for breakfast, snacks and hot drinks were very well made with friendly and very helpful staff, but the room itself was in need of improvement.
Convenient, very well located and super cosy room.

Clean room in a convenient location. I would recommend staying here. I didn't love that the climate control was locked and we needed to leave the window opened, but that was minor.
Comfy bed, great location for the station and our overnight stay. Friendly staff only downside bathroom only had one working tap, but staff responded positively when advised.
Great location for my purposes- just as sleep over between train journeys.
The room was very small, clean but I think the bed linens could use some bleach.
