The place was clean and accessible to everything you needed including train station and bus station. The breakfast was good as well but just like any other breakfast buffet, the selection does not change at all. We had a comfortable and safe stay.
Great place to stay to be near the Zurich HB station - easy to get around, convenient and room is just what you need for a one or two night stay. Nothing fancy, not very big, but good location for good price.
Room was a bit small for good value for price. Right next to the train station to the airport. Self check in process was easy and we could store our bags at the main hotel after check out.
Location, location, location!!! Across street from main train station Zurich AND Bus Station where all tours begin! Plus a reasonable cafe with delicious dinners next to Starbucks on the corner. We took the train to & from the airport and walked to Fred Hotel. Several trams stop right there also. Most convenient stay ever anywhere!
Location is perfect for accessing the trains/buses as well as Old Town and even Lake Zurich. Several dining options within a block of hotel. Highly recommend.
Good convenient location by Zurich Hb and other attractions. I assume the “guest house” is smaller and less expensive than Fred’s main building.
The room has everything that we need for shorter stay. Bath/toilet is in the smaller side, but quite functional (Japanese hotels are usually smaller).
Access is using smart phone. I assume you can get real keycard if you don’t have smartphone with internet access.
Room was cleaned, bed made, and new towels provide daily.
Breakfast was in the main building which is only a few meters away. Many healthy choice for breakfast and my favourite is always the coffee machine.
So we were quite satisfied with the stay in Zurich.
