Large train station with direct trains to the airport, but I think they only run every hour. It…read morewas a bit cold standing on the platform for 30 minutes while waiting for my connection. I got thirsty and went to the kiosk to buy a drink. They had a lovely all-natural blueberry box drink for CHF 1.50 that tasted delicious. No ok.- energy drinks for me... no thank you.

Train stations can get chaotic, especially in Europe in my experience, so arriving in Freiburg was…read moredefinitely a pleasant shock. The entire time I passed by during my stay, things seemed relatively calm. Of course delays couldn't be helped (my friend was affected), but solutions were not too far out of reach. This train station has multiple levels, a pharmacy, and lots of food options (Starbucks included). If you forgot to get your authentic German pretzel from a backeri, this can be your chance to grab one before leaving!

Conveniently situated train station within easy walk from the Freiburg city center. It's also a hub…read morefor not only trains but buses and trams and of course taxis. I had been clrver enough to book a room at the adjacent hotel Intercity from which you simply step out at platform 1 straight from the breakfast room. The platform mostly used for some reason. I love to ride trains but I'm definitely not impressed by Deutsche Bahn for many reasons, main one is obviously that the trains are most always delayed (only 1 of the 6 train rides I took during a week was on time). That English information on displays and speakers is not a basic and common thing plus they keep changing the train sets so despite the fact that you should board in front of the train for your booked seat you end up running in vain on a busy platform to reach your seat at the very end of the train are other reasons for my non-fondness of the German railway. Still, Freiburg train station is a pretty decent one as far as train stations go, with cafes and restaurants and a few shops too.

Small stations with a mini Migros and Coop. Long ramps to get to the platform if you have luggage.read more

Worst train station ever. No waiting area shielded from the cold and the wind, pathetic tiny sole…read morebakery. No wifi available (usually there is a 30m free connection to a Telecom wifi in train stations in Germany). No near restaurant or cafe. Had a 30m connection and found myself in this shit hole freezing on the platform. If you can avoid it, do try.

This station has come a long way in the 1.5 years since I started using it. At first it was just…read morecrumbly and old, with lots of construction outside. They still don't even have a proper Kiosk, just a temporary stand to serve snacks and drinks. But now, there are brand-new stairs and elevators, a glossy lit bus station in the middle, and I think they are continuing renovations to make the station better and better. The ticket counter is small and only manned by one person, but since the station is small, there usually isn't much of a wait to get assistance from the clerk. The best thing about this station is that my bf can pull his car right up to the front and wait for me to get off the train, so I don't have to do much walking to meet him. :)

Wettingen right next to Baden. The Bahnhof is small and has only a small kiosk, but is looking nice…read moretoday, after they renovated it and now and has a nice Bus station. I come here, because I have a cousin that lives in Wettingen. This is a great spot for people with kids that either work in Zurich or in Baden. For Baden is just a couple of minutes away and you can even walk there. For Zurich there are to S trains that go into the city and take about 30min. So if you guys are looking for place to live I recommend Wettingen. I think prices are a bit cheaper then in Zurich, but being so near the city and Baden having some big companies, the rents can also be high.
