Convenient location next to a stop for Tram 10 and 12 with quick/easy access to Airport, Aldstadt, and train station, made this a great option for a start/end point for travel beyond Zurich. The AC (not always a given in Switzerland), cleanliness, and helpful staff also contributed to a good visit. I will definitely return when passing through next time.

We stayed for 6 days and enjoyed using the tram just a few steps. Coop and Migros with laundry nearby. We were able to explore Zürich pretty well and save some buck! Not to mention it is also few minutes away from the airport! Hubby complimented me booking this hotel for the 4 of us! 😊
