"The view is amazing. If your coming from the USA. No ac so summer is hotter but at night it gets in the 50s so it’s very nice. The hotel is amazing. You have coop (grocery) right downstairs. Nearby restaurants are amazing. The waterfall view from the terrace is breathtaking. In the states we would pay $1k-$2k a night for this alone. I loved this place so much it will be hard to replace this setting. Staff was great. Great hidden gem!!!"

Top Swiss National Museum Hotel Reviews

Townhouse Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great boutique hotel with lovely staff. The location is excellent and the rooms are comfortable with plenty of storage. It is also good value and offers a tasty breakfast selection. Excellent coffee too! I would happily have stayed longer if I could."

Hotel Limmathof

8/10 Good

"The location is very convenient but very limited amenities provided,"

Hotel Scheuble

10/10 Excellent

"Fluffy down comforters were great!"

Boutique Hotel Wellenberg

8/10 Good

"This hotel is currently being renovated. Onside of the hotel on one side has tarps and scaffolding, preventing a clear outlook to the outside. Windows cannot be opened. The hotel has provided a good and fairly quiet air conditioner in each room, so rooms are comfortable. After a few nights we moved to another side of the hotel without scaffolding and staff was very helpful in arranging this. There is some street noise from restaurants on one side of the hotel but this disappears by 11;00 pm. The hotel provides an included and excellent breakfast each day. Staff is very helpful throughout the hotel. The location is excellent with good restaurants, beautiful buildings along the river walk and beautiful upscale shopping close by. Zurich is a pretty city and this hotel is very well situated. We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Wellenberg and it will be even better once the renovation is complete. I would stay there again."

Fred Hotel Hauptbahnhof

10/10 Excellent

"We were very happy staying at this hotel - a lovely place to stay in our first night in Switzerland! We were welcomed warmly by the staff, and were so pleased with our room - so comfortable with an amazing shower; the locations was ideal - close to eateries and train station, as well as being across the street from the bus station. We were so glad that the Fred Hotel was our first stop in our first time visiting Switzerland, and we would highly recommend staying here to others. We are sorry it was just a one night stay, and would love to stay again if we return."
