욕실이 작습니다.
전반적으로 청결상태나 식사 다 좋았는데 워낙 취리히 물가가 비싸 가격대비 만족도는 떨어지네요.

Right in the heart of the old town.
The room was very comfortable. The bathroom pod a little disconcerting but adequate.Found the pillow presentation quirky. Breakfast was plentiful with a gorgeous yogurt/muesli dish which was a welcome find.

Loved this hotel!
We loved staying at this hotel! Location was great. very close to restaurants, shops, tram and the train station!! Service was great. Staff are super friendly and helpful! Room was clean and very spacious compare to so many other hotels that we stayed in Europe. Could be noisy at night but we didn't care!

Excellent hotel in the heart of Zurich
Stayed in the hotel for 2 nights, size of double room is okay with fresh beddings everyday, staff are very helpful, courteous and accommodating. Food is superb, there s an array of bread and cold cuts to choose from. I think this is the best hotel in town considering the rate of the room per night.

Quirky hotel and good value
This is the second time I have stayed here. The staff are always very friendly, the rooms are smallish but all have small en-suite bathrooms which is unusual for Zurich hotels at these rates. Ideally located for the old town but some adult clubs very close by.

Ottima posizione e cordialità
L'ottima posizione sulla via dei locali non è sufficiente.Camere molto piccole,caldissime,senza aria condizionata.Il rumore sulla via principale fino alla mattina non aiuta a riposare.Essendo zona pedonale,si può raggiungere solo a piedi e l'auto deve essere portata in un garage vicino oltre il ponte.

Superb location and friendly staff
This hotel is right in the middle of Zurich, a stone's throw from lots and lots of bars and restaurants and shops, close to the tram, and yet reasonably quiet. The staff were great, very friendly and accommodating. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and won't hesitate to book into this hotel again. The rooms are clean and pleasant with a musical or style theme, I was in "Pop" and very happy to share it with Marilyn :-)

Schöne zentrale Lage
Sehr schönes Hotel, direkt in der Altstadt gelegen, alles zu Fuß erreichbar, einziger Kritikpunkt: fehlende Klimaanlage bei sommerlichen Temperaturen, Fenster können erst ab Mitternacht geöffnet werden, da vorher zu großer Geräuschpegel aus den Restaurants und Cafés.

Tolle Lage, Freundliches Personal...
Das Hotel befindet sich sehr zentral, die Zimmer sind sauber und modern eingerichtet. Das Bad ist klein, aber praktisch. Das Frühstück war eher dürftig und könnte verbessert werden.

Convenient, quaint, and pleasant
This is an adorable hotel. It is convenient to the train, and walking distance to many tourist sites. I would definitely go again. Also, the staff are friendly and helpful. The breakfast and coffee are good.

Pulito e accogliente, stanze piccole
Pulito, simpatici, camere piccole e basse.
Geniale l'idea di creare dei box in camera con il bagno dentro, ma un po' angusti. Colazione piu che discreta. Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo, per essere Zurigo dove tutto costa tanto..

מלון חמוד קטן ממוקם במקום מצויין.
היה ממש כיף להיות במלון.חדרים חמודים מעוצבים לפי נושאים. צוות המלון מאוד נחמד ועדיו. ארוחת בוקר קטנה אבל די מספקת. קפה מצויין.הבעיה היחידה היא לאלו שמטיילים עם רכב. אין חניה למלון והחניון הקרוב ביותר הוא כעשר דקות מהמלון.... לא בעייתי רק מייקר את הטיול ב- 30 יורו לשיום.

Excellent hotel in the heart of Zurich's old town!
Small hotel situated right in the heart of the old town. The rooms were fairly small but very well planned out to maximise usage of the space. I really enjoyed my stay. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Breakfast was included and quite comprehensive but beware of the eggs - they look hard boiled but they are not - you have to boil them yourself in the machine - I very nearly had an "egg catastrophe" :-)
