Boutique Hotel Wellenberg

10/10 Excellent

"It's a lovely boutique hotel in the middle of a pedestrian only area, lots of restaurants, close to the tram and to the coop. The included breakfast was perfect, lots of hot and cold choices. The staff were very helpful. Only drawback was the lack of AC. It was unseasonably warm one evening and while the open windows provided a nice breeze, it was too noisy to leave the windows open while sleeping. Would highly recommend."

Arlette Am Hauptbahnhof Hotel

6/10 Okay

"This hotel comes with pros and cons. Pros - close to the train station and the Landesmuseum,; very clean; friendly staff; comfortable bed; has aircon and a fridge. Cons - very dated decor circa late 1980s/early 1990s; breakfast is in the bakery next door - we didn’t realise this on booking - not a buffet but the food provided was good; our room looked onto a public stairway so was a little noisy and not very private but bearable as we were not staying over a weekend; the curtains were blackout but too short which defeated the purpose; the hairdryer is beyond useless- think hose with narrow blower on the end! Very old fashioned- ours kept coming apart at each use making it difficult to use - this really needs to be replaced for a more reliable modern style. We did report this each day and were told the owner is aware they need to be replaced. Otherwise it is a good value hotel for the centre of Zurich."

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

6/10 Okay

"The property itself is in a great location, directly opposite Cadorna station so great if you have an early flight. The room was very spacious, decor was lovely and it was very clean. We were disappointed that the building was covered in scaffolding, so we didn't get any natural light in the apartment for the 2 nights of our stay and also couldn't make the most of the balcony. I appreciate that it isn't the hosts fault but it would have been nice to be informed. Communication wasn't the best. The check in was 2pm but we were informed when we entered the property that this has to be delayed as the shower was broken. When we eventually got into the room, the shower was working but we didn't have any hot water for the duration of our stay, which was unfortunate given the hear in Milan during our stay, we couldn't get a proper shower as the water was just too cold."
