Great place to stay in Zurich
Our stay at Hotel Rossli was perfect, from the location to the room to the access to Zurich. Everyone was friendly and helpful. And the views from our rooftop terrace were spectacular. Thanks for everything, it made our trip that much more special.

Good 3-star hotel
Good location in Old Town, appr. one kilometer from the railway station. We stayed in the annex, our room was renovated. The breakfast was nice, but nothing special. No lobby bar. A lot of nice restaurants and cafes nearby.

The hotel location is fantastic with everything in walking distance and a decent breakfast buffet.
The Apartment room we booked was very spacious and great for the family.
Several downside though to be aware of. First the hotel is in a no car zone, so you have to park a half a mile away and schlep all your stuff there.
Then, the elevator goes only to the 3rd floor and that room is on the 4th.
Finally, the room has no AC. It was very hot when we were there, so it gets a bit uncomfortable. We opened all the windows and then you hear all the noise from everybody partying in old Zurich and it gets quite loud.

The front desk was not staffed when arrived to hotel around 11 am. This made check in a bit difficult. As well, there was no one there at check out. I wanted to use a different credit card to pay for our room vs. the card I used to reserve our room. With on staff there, this was not possible. Kind of a hassle.
The restaurant in the hotel had excellent food and a very friendly owner.
