It is a charming hotel, and we liked everything about it except for we two older people to have to lug our suitcases up the steps to the reception area was a tad difficult. It would be nice if someone at the front desk would have heard us and helped us. Otherwise a fabulous visit and stay.

Great location in the old town area. Walkable from the main train station and many dining options around the area. The only thing is that there’s no ac since none of the old buildings in the old town area have ac, so it can get pretty hot in the room.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Hotel is reasonably priced and in an excellent location for a visit to Zurich. Breakfast served is excellent with fresh pastries, cold cuts, cheeses, yogurt and boiled eggs cooked to order. Facilities are clean and staff is accommodating. Rooms and bathrooms are small as to be expected in an historic facility. They are sparse with little decoration, adequate beds and very small televisions located far across the room. Check-in requires navigating a flight of stairs, but an elevator is available up from there. Overall a good choice and value for a visit to the heart of Zurich

Family friendly feel. Great customer service. Central to everything. Walk anywhere. No air conditioning but weather was great. Hotel provides a fan. But slept with the window wide open and it was fine. I didn’t mind. Perfectly safe to do so. To access the main lobby, you have to climb a full flight of stairs with your luggage. I also did not mind. But some may have an issue with it. I would certainly stay there again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Convenient location - very close to both the lake and the train station, right in the heart of the Old town. Two things to keep in mind - there is a flight of 20 stairs before you reach the elevator level - which is an issue with suitcases; since it faces the main square where a lot is happening during the summer - it is extermely noist until 2 am - I suspect this may not be an issue outside of te summer season. Very clean.

The hotel was fine and the people were friendly. My ratings are based on the lack of air conditioning. It was really really hot and sleeping was difficult even with a fan. It was an unusual heat wave but if you are going to Zurich in the summer just keep in mind that this hotel is not air conditioned.

We were not greeted warmly at all - the receptionist was unfriendly and very abrupt in his manner. The check in process was slow, manual and antiquated and overall we were not made to feel welcome.

Quaint Hotel in the Middle of Everything…but…

This is a quaint hotel right on the street in the middle of everything in Old Town (oldest hotel in Zurich). But with that comes a few things to be aware of: 20 stairs to climb to get to the lobby. Tough with big luggage. 2. No air conditioning, just a table top fan. Beware if you go in the hot season. 3. Room is very small (#502). I know there are some big rooms ( ones ending in “1”), but we didn’t have it. All things considered, nice place to stay for only one or two nights.
