The hotel has a great location in the center of Zurich, within walking distance from the main station and close to restaurants and shopping. The rooms are well-designed but very compact, lacking tea and coffee facilities, and can get quite hot. The service is friendly and professional, especially at the reception and during breakfast. The dining options, while offering a good selection, could use more variety. The facilities include a large dining room with ample seating and variety.

The hotel had very clean and small rooms, but it was perfect for accommodating a compact mobility scooter and a disabled access bathroom. Despite the room being small and hot, it was kept very clean, and the street noise could be bothersome. The code given for key access was wrong initially, requiring calling reception for the correct code.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were surprisingly not noisy at night despite it being a weekend, as long as the windows were closed, though the view to the back street was not the quietest. The earplugs left on our pillows seemed unnecessary in the end.
