This place gets a big pass from me.

The staff were amazing, helpful and friendly. But the room get a lot to be desired. One small pillow so thin it was useless. The bed was a single bed the size of a child's bed and was so cheap it was like one of those IKEA cardboard beds they used for athletes' at the Toyko Olympics.

Angenehm

Unser Aufenthalt im Zurigo Downtown war gut. Wir hatten ein Zimmer im dritten Stock mit Klimaanlage und zum Hinterhof. Das Zimmer war gross und sauber, doch das Badzimmer war eher klein. Das Personal stets freundlich und hilfsbereit, besonder hat uns Monica bei all möglichen Fragen und Wünschen weitergeholfen. Das Frühstück war ausreichend, doch es sah aus, als wäre vieles nicht frisch. Die Lage vom Hotel ist wirklich super, da es eine gute Reichweite hat zu den wichtigsten Orten. Wir werden sicher nochmals hingehen.

Lage zentral, alles sauber

Das Hotel ist nur wenige Schritte vom See und dem Zentrum entfernt, alles sehr sauber & funktionell. Zimmer zur Strasse sind leider extrem laut, Durchfahrtsstrasse dient als Rennstrecke in der Nacht und die umliegenden Bars haben bis morgens um fünf Uhr laute Gäste. Zimmer ohne Klimaanlage = unmöglich zu schlafen (es gäbe ein paar Zimmer mit Klimaanlage). Das Hotel verfügt über eine Tiefgarage und das Frühstück ist lecker und ausreichend. Wir würden im Sommer bei hohen Temperaturen ein anderes Hotel buchen, da das Zimmer (ohne Klimaanlage) viel zu heiss ist und man mit offenem Fenster wegen des Strassenlärms nicht schlafen kann. Tipp: Zimmer mit Klimaanlage buchen, falls keine verfügbar sind, dann unbedingt ein Zimmer zum Hinterhof wählen.
