Rigiblick Spa Suites & Studios
Staying at Rigiblick Spa Suites & Studios was an absolute delight, especially for the second time. The self-check-in process was smooth and hassle-free, and getting our room key was quick and easy. The room itself is beautifully designed with a small kitchenette—perfect for light meals or snacks. The bathroom features both a shower and a bathtub, which was a nice touch after a long day. The bed, however, is on the narrower side at 160 cm wide—slightly tight for two guests sharing it. That said, the views over Lake Zurich are absolutely stunning, especially in the evening when the sun dips behind the hills. The hotel’s location is ideal—quiet yet well-connected by public transport. Plus, the fridge and complimentary beverages are generously stocked and included in the room rate, which adds great value. The theater nearby is a bonus for culture lovers. Overall, this stay was exceptional and I’d definitely return.

Everything I needed for a short trip was right there in the apartment, from kitchen essentials to cozy bedding. It was quite hot during my visit (35°C), so I would’ve appreciated a fan, but the management team quickly helped improve airflow and ensured a comfortable night’s sleep. Their responsiveness and warm hospitality made all the difference. This place feels like home—spacious, stylish, and thoughtfully designed. Highly recommend for travelers who value convenience, comfort, and a personal touch.

Staying at the Olympia Hotel Zurich was an absolute highlight of my trip! The front desk staff were incredibly helpful and friendly—she took time to explain how to purchase the fast train tickets, which was such a big relief for me as a first-time visitor. The room itself was immaculately clean, with a cozy and well-designed layout that made me feel right at home. I especially loved how close the hotel is to the bus stop—just a short walk to get around the city or head to the airport.

VISIONAPARTMENTS Militärstrasse - contactless check-in
The apartment was absolutely fantastic—spacious, clean, and well-designed with a modern touch. Located just minutes from the city center, it's incredibly convenient for exploring Zurich by public transit. The contactless check-in was a huge plus, making our arrival stress-free and efficient. While we appreciated the privacy and independence, we did notice that housekeeping wasn’t scheduled during longer stays, so we had to manage cleaning duties ourselves. That said, the overall experience was outstanding—great value, excellent location, and a comfortable home away from home. I’d definitely book again and highly recommend this place to travelers who prefer self-sufficient stays.
Trip Inn Zurich Hotel
My stay at Trip Inn Zurich Hotel was absolutely fantastic. The single room I booked was by far the largest I've ever had in Europe—spacious, well-lit, and incredibly comfortable. It felt more like a cozy apartment than a hotel room. Located just a 12-minute walk from Zurich HB Train Station, the hotel offers unbeatable convenience for getting around the city or catching trains to nearby destinations. There are plenty of restaurants right on the ground floor, so dining out is super easy—no need to go far for a good meal. I also appreciated the nearby Coop supermarket where I picked up water and snacks to bring back to my room. While the vending machines inside the hotel charge a bit more for bottled water, it’s definitely cheaper to shop at the store. The room itself was spotless, clean, and thoughtfully designed. From check-in to check-out, everything ran smoothly. This place truly delivers great value and comfort—I’d happily return without hesitation.
Residence Appartements
Staying at Residence Appartements in Zurich was a great experience overall. The location is excellent—just a short walk from the metro and close to all the main attractions, shops, and restaurants. The apartment itself was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully furnished with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The layout felt spacious and practical, making it ideal for both short trips and longer stays. What stood out most was the value for money—great quality without the high price tag. I’d definitely book again next time I’m in Zurich and would recommend this place to friends and family.

StattHotel is an outstanding choice for a stay in Zurich. Located just a 10-minute walk from Zurich HB, it’s perfectly positioned for exploring the city on foot. The rooms are thoughtfully designed—compact but smartly laid out with all the essentials and nothing extra. Everything feels functional and modern, making it a comfortable and efficient base for both business and leisure travelers. Highly recommend for those who value convenience, style, and a quiet urban retreat.
Zurich Furnished Apartments
Even though this is an older property, my family and I truly enjoyed our stay at this charming apartment. The space was perfect for five of us—plenty of room to move around without feeling cramped. Daniella was incredibly responsive before we arrived, answering all our questions promptly and making the booking process smooth. We were greeted with welcome gifts that we happily enjoyed after arriving late in the evening. Prince, our host, was friendly and helpful—he showed us where the laundry area was and confirmed our floor level. I was a bit nervous thinking it might be on the top floor, but being on the second floor was much more convenient, especially with my knee issues. One small thing: the shower or bathtub drains slowly when in use—hopefully this can be improved soon. Prince also gave us an extra 30 minutes to finish packing, which was a thoughtful touch. The tram stop is literally just steps away, making public transit super easy and quick. There’s a handy laundry schedule posted on the wall—we booked the last slot since we often return late, but someone else was using the dryer during our time. It would be great if the apartment included a microwave, as it’s much cheaper and easier to heat up ready meals than ordering takeout every night after a full day of sightseeing. Overall, this place exceeded our expectations. The location, comfort, and service are excellent. I’d definitely stay here again on our next visit to Zurich.
Hotel Montana Zürich
Zurich is such a compact city—most attractions are within walking distance, making it perfect for travelers with luggage. I arrived from Paris with a heavy backpack and chose Hotel Montana Zürich precisely because of its convenient location just a short walk from the train station. That proximity made my arrival stress-free. The best part? There’s a Coop supermarket right downstairs—grabbing snacks, drinks, or essentials was effortless. The room itself isn’t large, and the lighting is on the dimmer side, but it’s spotless and well-maintained. Breakfast was surprisingly varied, offering both local Swiss treats and classic Western options. Having breakfast in-room saved me time and energy—no need to hunt for a café or stop by a grocery store. For a city-center stay with great convenience, excellent cleanliness, and a solid breakfast selection, this hotel delivers. A smart choice for any traveler looking for comfort without compromise.
