The hotel's location right opposite the coach station where all the tours depart from is super convenient, but the rooms are a bit cramped. The very friendly staff made us some space, and although the tables are closely packed in the crowded dining area, we found a good variety of delicious items for breakfast.

The hotel offers interestingly designed rooms facing the main road, equipped with a tablet 'concierge' for in-room service. While not spotlessly clean, the location is convenient with an extensive shopping area a short walk away. The service was attentive, considering our family's needs, and the dining provided a good variety of food. The facility's setup requires crossing the street for dining in another house.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room, although small, was clean and modern with a cleverly organized tiny bathroom. The noise from trams in the morning was a downside, but the overall experience was excellent. The location near the train station was convenient, but the distance to certain areas like the lake and Opera house was a bit far. The dining options were varied and satisfying, but there was a slight inconvenience in finding the hotel initially.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms, while small and dated, were clean and functional with bright colors. The service was extremely friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to return a misplaced item. The location was fabulous, just across the road from Zurich main train station. The dining experience offered a great variety of fresh foods but was a bit pricey for a 3-star place. Overall, a comfortable and convenient stay.
