From now on this is my go to hotel in Zürich! It’s in a great central location (really convienient for the main train station). I had a spacious and suprizingly cozy room. Its location does mean you always hear the inevitable buzz of the city even in the small hours, but it’s never too obtrusive.

We really enjoyed our stay at City Hotel Zürich. The hotel is very clean and modern looking on the inside. The staff were all helpful and all spoke English. The hotel is very convenient as it’s just a ~5 min walk from the main train station and walkable to all of the sites in the center of Zurich. We would definitely recommend to fellow travelers.

I stayed in a single bed room, which was tiny and looked like a cruise ship room or a train compartment with a tiny bath. I was not a fan of the room, but the room was clean and was centrally located, walkable to Old Town and close to the main Zurich HB station which made it easy to go to the airport and other towns easily. Staff was very welcoming and kind. Overall a nice experience.

This hotel was great! It was clean and walkable from the train which was super convenient. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They let us store our bags before check in and after check out. I loved the towel warmer, the amenities, and how close it was to Zürich main station and to old town. The toilet paper was a little rough, the bed a little hard and the pillows a little thin but I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

The hotel was perfect, we had a deluxe room which was a generous size with a big bathroom. If you arrive by train it’s an easy walk to the hotel. We ended our vacation in Zurich and the hotel has a flat rate of 65 franks to the airport, which was good as everything in Zurich is expensive.
