Highly recommend this property. We were in Zurich for one night and needed to be close to the main train station, so this property was in a perfect location. The staff were extremely helpful, and the breakfast had a great variety - a bonus that it was included in the price as well.

Wonderful Boutique Hotel

Hotel was perfect for what we wanted. Only a short walk to Old Town and train. Great breakfast. An extra perk we didn’t count on were free passes to Kunsthaus Zurich, Switzerland’s largest art museum. It was also within walking distance.
