Top Old Town Zürich Hotel Reviews

Boutique Hotel Wellenberg

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly and helpful staff from check in to check out. Room well appointed. "

Hotel Scheuble

8/10 Good

"Hotel Scheuble is conveniently located 5 minutes on foot from the Central tram station and very close to the Zurich HBH at the top of the Niederdorf area. The location is hard to beat, with easy transportation and many restaurants in the charming old town, and a very easy walk across the Limmat to Bahnhofstrasse. The elevators were at times a little wonky, but there are elevators. The small room has a glass-enclosed bathroom but is nicely decorated. The closet area is generous in size, and the "desk" is narrow but long with a number of outlets (Type C and J) but no USB outlets in the room. I appreciated having an espresso machine and a hot water kettle in the room as well as a luggage rack. The WiFi worked well. The breakfast was not super exciting, but you can have cook to order eggs. The staff was very helpful and seemed to accommodate customers in many languages. I arrived early morning but was given a room right away. I would recommend this hotel."

St Gotthard Hotel

8/10 Good

"The staff are wonderful and incredibly helpful. The property is superbly located near Zurich station and right on Bahnhofstrasse. The room was a good size. The shower was excellent. The hotel is established and here and there a bit tired. It would not prevent me from staying again but it needs a bit of care here and there."

Sorell Hotel Rütli Niederdorf Zürich

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful, quiet location about a 6 minute walk to the train station and near a multitude of restaurants. Nice large room with everything we needed. Very clean and well maintained. Breakfast staff if very friendly and helpful and breakfast offered several types of bread/rolls, scrambled eggs as well as a cooker for soft boiled eggs. Lots of seating and available from 6:30 to 10 AM. We would absolutely stay here again when in Zurich. Highly recommend!"

Hotel Marta - 1950’s architecture in Zurich’s vibrant old town, near main station

8/10 Good

"3 night pleasure trip to Zurich. The hotel was quite basic, which I knew before I booked. It had everything I needed, though I wish the bed was more comfortable, it was hard as a rock and 1 squishy pillow wasn't enough. The breakfast was small, but was enough to get the day started. Location was perfect. Less than 5 minutes from the train station, easy to walk with luggage. And in the heart of Old Town."
