Boutique-Hotel Seefeld

The hotel was a delightful surprise! Just a 30-minute walk along the scenic riverside from the train station, or only 10 minutes by tram line 4—super convenient. The room was compact but cozy, with thoughtful touches like a kettle, coffee machine, yoga mat, backpack, ironing board, and iron—everything you’d need for a comfortable stay. Breakfast was excellent: a generous buffet featuring scrambled eggs, fresh veggies, fruits, muesli, baked goods, fresh juice, and dried fruit. The only downside? The coffee wasn’t up to par—it lacked flavor. But honestly, the overall experience was fantastic. Umbrellas are available at the entrance, which is a nice extra. I’m so glad we chose this place—highly recommend for anyone visiting Zurich!
