Convenient location, excellent air-conditioning

The room for one was about as basic as it gets but included a private bathroom. Breakfast buffet was quite good, and there was free coffee available around the clock in the lobby and on each floor. The location was superb, on the bank of the Sihl and a two-minute walk from Zurich Central Station. In hot weather, the powerful air-conditioning system was greatly appreciated.

Watch out for extra charges if your room is ready early!! Arriving from the U.S., we had stored our bags there when we arrived early in the morning, but couldn’t check in. We went back when between 11:30 and noon. We learned our room was ready, and she offered to check us in for a fee of 20 francs plus tax. We thought it was weird, but we were delirious from our overnight flight and anxious to lay down, so paid it. Once in our room it dawned on us that it was not typical, so when we went back downstairs, we gave her an opportunity to refund us. But she did not. Checking the website, there’s no mention of a fee -especially since we didn’t request it ahead of time. So be careful not to be taken advantage of if you decide to stay there.
