My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were spacious enough with modern fittings in the shower room/toilet; however, they overlooked a cobblestone laneway with noisy walkers passing by. The service was incredibly warm and welcoming, making us feel looked after and well taken care of. The location, right in the middle of the old city, allowed us to explore effortlessly. The dining experience was basic but sufficient, and additional meals had to be sought outside. The overall value for money was somewhat questionable.

The hotel has comfortable rooms, but lacks charm to be cozy. The service is welcoming and attentive, reflecting the awesome atmosphere. Its location in Old Towne Zurich is perfect for exploring on foot, right amidst all the wonderful attractions. However, the dining options were limited and missed gluten-free choices.
