A lovely and stylish 1930s style hotel with modern amenities. Staff were all excellent, we particularly enjoyed the butler passing out free chocolate from his cart. Easy access to the train station and thus serves as an excellent springboard for site seeing. The restaurant was also excellent. It has a posh atmosphere and serves great tasting food for great prices.

I had a wonderful stay! The single room with twin bed was a comfortable size, and the twin bed was larger than expected. The room was well insulated, and I did not hear the other guests or the street noise. The hotel does cater to an older crowd, but the staff was friendly and attentive. It was a convenient location to travel around Switzerland and Zurich and very walkable to cafes and restaurants. I felt safe at the hotel as a single woman traveling on my own. Highly recommend and will definitely return.

If I could give them 10 stars I would. They made our 30th anniversary a most special occasion with an upgrade and lovely rose petals throughout our room along with other delights. The chocolatier was a wonderful treat every night. The staff anticipated every need and always exceeded expectations. The location is perfect and the amenities were five star. We can’t thank them enough for making our anniversary so special.

Perfect
An excellent hotel with impeccable service, spotlessly clean and an attention to detail rarely seen. I travel widely for work and pleasure and this is up there with the best that I have experienced. A real understated classy grand hotel where nothing is too much trouble. Now my first choice for Zurich.
