For $170 a night it's a pretty junky place. I get that Zurich is expensive, but this place is pretty run down and dingy. Reasonably clean, but I wouldn't stay there again.

It is a very conveniently located hotel, just 1 min from the Limmatplatz tram stop and two stops from the Hauptbahnhof. The front staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and roomy. the price was very good.

I liked you could open the windows(not all hotels have that)
I did not like to hear the bells from the church nearby in the middle of the night but that is not the hotels fault

This hotel room was small, but clean. We were only staying for one night before heading to the airport the next morning so it was perfect for us, but I'm not sure if it's spacious enough fit a longer stay. Overall though, we were very pleased with the location and general condition of the room.

The staff was sooo helpful at check in and when we had questions about the area, the trams and the things to do. We contacted them late in the evening for additional bedding and they responded cordially and quickly. The hotel was well maintained, clean and quiet. The three of us were delighted with the staff upon arrival and during our stay.
We will go out of our way to book this hotel on our next stay in Zurich. Very highly recommend.

Heatwave!
We went during the dreaded heat wave and they had no A/C. Not their fault it was so hot, but, be warned there is no A/C in rooms. They gave us a fan, but, still a VERY hot night.

Firstly, I very much like the fact that the hotel is so near and easy to get to from the airport. Secondly, it has a variety of trams that pass by and thirdly it is very close to shops and amenities.

The staff was very friendly and I was satisfied with everything specially the location as I was going to see the Silvester celebration in Zurich Bürkliplatz. I’m grateful and I would recommend this hotel and also gladly comeback to it in another opportunity

Close to the train station. Everything was good except the night club noise on the main floor that went quite late. Would choose a different hotel next time for this reason only.

Zero Frills
A super basic experience. Really depressing hallways and room. Couldn't make the rooms less appealing in terms of decor if they tried. Lights in the shower flickered the whole time. There is no aircon, just a floor fan. For the equivalent of £120, this place was over priced. The free breakfast was over the road in a kebab and chip shop. At least it was clean. But I would definitely not ever stay there again.

Expensive for what you got but maybe that’s what you get in Zurich. Clean but very dated. Bathroom small. Church bells go off every half hour!

Reasonable hotel close to central train station, a supermarket and restaurants including McDonald's. The room can be very noisy if it is facing the main street, even at night. Make sure you check that there is no concerts or parties during your stay by going to this link http://www.x-tra.ch/de/. You can find other comments about the high noise level when events took place.
There is no air conditioning in the room, so it can be quite hot in the summer. A fan is provided in the room. The room size is good and shower facility is okay. The hotel also provides a kettle with some free coffee and tea packs. One quirk of the hotel is they don't let you take your room key away: you have give it to the reception before you leave. Staff were extremely friendly.

Good location, close to the train station and buses and trams. Within walking distance of lots of sites. Super noisy at with people on the street all night. One desk clerk (female) was very friendly and helpful. The other (male) was not at all.
