10/10 Excellent
"This is located in a tech and business part of Zurich with several options for dining in Techno Park. It was interesting to observe Swiss in a working environment. We were upgraded to a superior room, which had all the amenities of a 4star hotel. The front desk staff provided us information for 2 museums nearby and public transit to the airport. Storage of baggage is secure. The breakfast provides a hot buffet including a juice bar, pancake maker, and a great variety of international choices. It is a 10 minute walk to the closest train stop."
