Hotel Uto Kulm Car-Free Hideaway in Zurich
Staying at Hotel Uto Kulm was an absolute delight. Nestled in a quiet, car-free zone just minutes from the heart of Zurich, it offers a peaceful retreat without sacrificing convenience—trains to the city center are quick and easy. The views from the room are breathtaking, especially at sunrise when the Alps glow against the sky. A short 5-minute walk uphill leads you through lush greenery, making the journey feel like a mini adventure. The wellness area is exceptional and absolutely worth reserving ahead of time—it’s that popular. Rooms are beautifully designed with modern Swiss touches, clean and cozy. Breakfast costs 30 CHF but is totally worth it: fresh pastries, local jams, handmade bread, and excellent coffee. Every detail feels thoughtfully curated. I’d give it 10/10 without hesitation—this is one of those rare stays that truly stands out.
Opera Hotel Zürich
Staying at Opera Hotel Zürich was a delightful experience from start to finish. The location is unbeatable—just steps away from the city center, theaters, and shopping areas, making everything super accessible. The hotel itself felt warm and welcoming, with a cozy atmosphere that made us feel right at home. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with any request. Breakfast was outstanding—fresh, abundant, and delicious. The only minor downside was some noise from construction work on a nearby street during nighttime, but honestly, it’s something the hotel can’t really control. Overall, the stay was seamless and enjoyable. With its prime location, excellent service, and charming ambiance, this place offers incredible value. I’d definitely come back.
Residence Mutschellen
My family and I had an absolutely delightful 10-day stay at Residence Mutschellen. My sister and I shared a twin room, while our parents stayed in a separate one—both were cozy, spotlessly clean every day, and came with tea and coffee supplies, which was a nice touch. The compact kitchenette in each room, complete with a fridge and freezer, made cooking our own meals easy and budget-friendly—definitely saved us a lot on dining out. We even enjoyed a few meals outdoors in the small garden area, which added to the relaxed vibe. The sauna was a real highlight—perfect for unwinding after a long day of exploring. Location-wise, it’s excellent: just a 15-minute walk to the lake and swimming spots, about 10 minutes to a local supermarket, and both the Brunau train station (less than 5 minutes away) and a bus stop right outside the hotel make getting around Zurich super convenient. We were actually in town for the Euros, and it was fun to learn that one of the staff members is a fan of England—great conversation starter! Everyone at the property was warm, helpful, and genuinely friendly. If you're looking for a comfortable, well-located, and homely stay in Zurich, this place is a top recommendation.
City Stay - Forchstrasse
I was really happy with my stay at this place. The location is excellent—just a short walk from the city center and super easy to get around by public transit. The room was spotless, the bed was incredibly comfortable, and I loved having a small balcony to enjoy a morning coffee or unwind in the evening. Everything you’d need for a short trip was included—kitchenette, fridge, microwave, and even good Wi-Fi. One thing to note: parking in the underground garage needs to be arranged and paid for separately, so it’s not part of the base rate. That said, it’s a minor detail considering how well the whole package comes together. Great value, great vibe, and definitely a place I’d recommend to travelers looking for comfort and convenience without the hassle.
Green Marmot Capsule Hotel Zurich
Located in the heart of Zurich, Green Marmot Capsule Hotel offers unbeatable convenience—just a 10-minute walk from major attractions. The capsule beds are clean, well-maintained, and surprisingly comfortable for the price. I was truly impressed by how efficiently the space is designed; it’s compact but feels open and airy. For this rate, you can’t ask for more—this place delivers excellent value with no compromises on hygiene or comfort. The only minor downside is that there are occasionally a few teenagers hanging around the area at night, which can make things slightly noisy. But overall, the location, cleanliness, and affordability make this a standout choice. I’d definitely stay here again and recommend it to fellow budget-conscious travelers.
Oldtown Hostel Otter
The rooms at this hostel are spacious and comfortable, though it did get a bit warm during my stay. The location is absolutely perfect—just steps away from the city center with countless attractions within walking distance. I’d definitely stay here again. The lockers are generously sized, making storage easy and secure. While there seem to be only a few bathrooms and showers, I never had to wait—everything ran smoothly throughout my visit. My only suggestion would be adding another fan to improve airflow, but honestly, that’s not enough to take away from the excellent experience. Overall, a fantastic value for money and highly recommended.
Altstadt Hotel
The staff here went above and beyond—friendly, professional, and always ready to help. The location is fantastic: just a short walk from the city center, with great access to public transit, restaurants, and shopping. Everything about this stay was top-notch, from the clean, well-designed rooms to the thoughtful touches throughout the hotel. I couldn’t recommend it more highly—it’s definitely one of the best experiences I’ve had in Zurich.
La Réserve Eden au Lac Zurich
My stay at La Réserve Eden au Lac in Zurich was truly memorable, especially during the busy holiday season. While it's true that hotel rooms in Europe tend to be on the smaller side, this one felt well-designed and surprisingly spacious for its size. The attention to detail and quality of furnishings made a big difference. What really stood out was the exceptional service—staff were incredibly warm, attentive, and always ready to help with anything, from recommendations to check-in assistance. The location is perfect, just a short walk or quick transit ride away from the city center, and the lake view from the room was absolutely breathtaking, especially in the morning light. Of course, prices are higher during peak times, but considering the serene surroundings, top-tier service, and unique charm of the property, it’s worth every penny. I’d definitely come back here on my next trip to Zurich.
Cosmopolitan Apartments Zürich Seefeld
Staying at the Cosmopolitan Apartments Zürich Seefeld was an absolute highlight of my trip to Zurich. Nestled in a quiet residential area near the lake, it’s surprisingly close to the city center—just a short walk or quick transit ride away. The neighborhood feels peaceful and safe, yet everything I needed was within easy reach: a Migros supermarket and a Coop grocery store just a few minutes’ walk. The studio is around 30 square meters—compact but thoughtfully designed. It includes a comfortable bed, a small dining table, a cozy sofa with coffee table, a TV, a well-equipped kitchenette, and a modern bathroom with shower. What stood out? The little touches: Nespresso capsules waiting upon arrival, a bottle of mineral water in the fridge, and tasteful, minimalist decor that made the space feel both welcoming and stylish. Check-in is completely self-service via code—no front desk hassle—and the hosts regularly check in to see how you’re doing. It’s perfect for solo travelers who value independence but still want attentive care. I’d book here again in a heartbeat.
Hitrental Kreuzplatz Apartments
The location is excellent—just a short walk from the city center and well-connected by public transit. The apartment itself has plenty of space, which was a plus. However, the overall experience was disappointing. The furnishings are extremely low quality—some cabinet doors were missing, and it felt like a student dorm with all IKEA furniture. Basic supplies like soap and shampoo were barely enough. We had to pay upfront, and communication was mostly via email, which made things difficult since the key was left in a 'secret' spot with no clear instructions. To make matters worse, we were told at checkout that we needed to vacuum and clean the entire place thoroughly—so we even filmed ourselves doing it, just in case they tried to charge us later. This is exactly what some reviews warned about: unexpected fees after check-out. While the location is great, the poor quality, lack of service, and unnecessary hassle aren’t worth it. Definitely not staying here again.
B2 Boutique Hotel + Spa
Staying at B2 Boutique Hotel + Spa was an absolute highlight of my trip to Zurich. The rooftop pool at night is truly breathtaking—soft ambient lighting, serene atmosphere, and stunning views of the city skyline create a magical experience. I wish I could’ve taken photos, but honestly, the moment was so special that it’s etched in memory without needing a picture. The hotel’s location is perfect—just a short walk from the city center and easy access to public transport. It’s not just a place to sleep; it’s an experience you’ll remember. Highly recommend for anyone looking for luxury, tranquility, and a touch of elegance in Zurich.
Lamira - Serviced Apartments
Staying at Lamira - Serviced Apartments in Zurich was an absolute highlight of my trip. The apartment itself is incredibly well-designed and offers excellent value for money—definitely one of the best deals I’ve found. The room is spacious and clean, though the bed is a bit soft and slightly shorter than expected; two women were comfortable, but it might feel tight for taller guests. What really stands out is the fully equipped kitchen with a built-in oven—perfect for preparing meals from groceries picked up at the nearby supermarket. I cooked several dinners during my stay, which saved me a lot of money and gave me a real homey feel. The bathroom is large and modern, and there’s a washer and dryer on-site, which made laundry stress-free. My unit even had a private balcony where I enjoyed morning coffee while watching the city come alive. The location is unbeatable—just a 500-meter walk left from the building to the train station, making travel around Zurich effortless. With great amenities, top-tier convenience, and a cozy atmosphere, this place is perfect for both short stays and longer visits. Highly recommended!
