We had an excellent stay at this hotel. It's a bit daunting to book a hotel that hasn't had any…read morereviews in the last 10 years, but we are grateful that we took a leap of faith here. We accidentally booked a single room which we didn't realize until checkin. The front desk staff was so helpful and accommodating. First they immediately called housekeeping to prepare the room for two, and when we realized that it was going to be too small for both of us for a three night stay, they were happy to move us into a king room when it became available the next day. We left our luggage at the front desk and the bags were waiting for us in our new room when we arrived. Interactions with the front desk staff and housekeeping were pleasant throughout. We had a rental car and were able to park it in the underground garage which was a great relief. This hotel is also just next to the Thalwil train station, which has pros and cons. On the plus side, it's a fast and easy ride into Zurich HB and the city center. Conversely, if you get a room on one side of the hotel, you will hear train noise. While no one was working outdoors on the weekend, major construction noise started coming from the train station on Monday morning at 7 am. Ear plugs were provided in the room. I also liked how you could raise and lower the outdoor shutters which blocked out light in the morning. It was consistently 73 to 75 degrees F in the room and the only way to let cooler air in from outside was to open the balcony door - wish there had been a window instead because it was awkward to keep the door open all night. The room itself was well equipped with thoughtful amenities including cold water in the fridge, shower cap, sewing kit, body lotion, even a shoe horn to use during your stay. A downside is that most of the power outlets did not fit our US converter. However, all of the USB's worked and we were able to at least charge our phones and most other devices. The TVs offer a way to cast streaming services from your phone to the screen and it worked perfectly in our first room but not the second one. The breakfast assortment was impressive. Both hot and cold items and an excellent sitting area with a view of the lake. It was only free on Sunday. Fast and excellent Wi-Fi as well.

Amazing find through hotels dot com. I have been making my way through Europe the month of July…read more2017 and happened upon this place. I knew I wanted to swim in lake Zurich, climb a 10,000+ hike and be close to the trains. This has all of that, but more importantly it has a staff that is super welcoming and aims to please. From the minute we arrived, which was a 3 hour train from Milan and an early one at that, they really understood our needs. They insisted we go swim in the lake, pointed us to a bit of a public but yet private area and it did not disappoint. They have fro yo in bar for those who are into that sort of stuff. The room is super eclectic, my only concern is the Europeans are somewhat stingy with their AC's and there is no control from within. Fancy auto blinds and lights hardwood floors throughout, and a nice balcony with a view of the lake. Quick elevators and some of the best cappuccino yet and trust me I've had a bunch. Yes I'm an IGNORANT American that only speaks English but they took the time to learn another language unlike me. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who's stressing over the $700 a night places in what I have found to be the most expensive European city yet of this tour and this is Country #7 on it..

Where to start. Since there's no air conditioning you must rely on a fan and leaving your window…read moreopen. Not a safe feeling if you're on the first floor. Actually, it wouldn't matter what floor you're on as all of the entry/exit doors were left wide open. Anyone could walk in. As for the room, it was clean. I would have liked hand towels and/or washcloths to go with the two bath towels. It wild have helped with cleaning up the mess from the shower soaking the floors. A poorly designed shower, that has a moveable wand, shoots out the open concept door and soaked the bathroom and entry. I was going to call the front desk for more towels but couldn't find the number listed on the phone. There was no guest service information in the room either. There was no Kleenex/facial tissue and the hair dryer was a sorry mess. I understand hotels don't want people stealing the hair dryer but, I would prefer not having to take three times as long to dry my hair and not burning my hands in the process.

Didn't feel like this hotel was anything special. It was relatively inexpensive, and we only stayed…read morethere for one night. The check-in and check out processes was super easy. There was a restaurant/bar that seemed to be busy/had a good looking menu attached to the lobby. Our room was fine - no frills. We really didn't like the pillows, and the bathroom was very small. Like if you were on the toilet, you were basically in the shower. It was a comparable size to cruise ship bathrooms, but I didn't see why it needed to be. The room was very warm, but it was too loud to keep the windows open cause the hotel was right next to the freeway, so luckily we found a space AC unit in the room. The big kicker for me was finding the largest stink bug I've ever seen on one of the lamps as we went to go to bed. Luckily my boyfriend was able to capture it and send it free out the window, but then I couldn't help to wonder if there were other critters crawling around. We were there for less than 24 hours, so it was an easy stay, but for a longer stay I think I would have preferred somewhere else.

Came here for our 2 day stay in Zurich after a long 24 hrs flight…read more Samantha (the daughter) greeted us and she was so charming and helpful. We needed early checkin as our flight came early and she made it possible. We were in Suite #2: 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom with fully furnished kitchen; AC including full Washing machine and dryer (in the basement)! I absolutely loved this place. Sylvia (the Mom) was amazing and extremely helpful as well. I believe they can also provide you a parking spot if you need one. The best part about this place is: (1) pharmacy at the corner (2) coop supermarket a few blocks down (train can be taken there as well) (3) so many cute/cool walking stores nearby (4) safe to be out and about ~8/9pm if you're jet lagged (5) train stops a few feet from the hotel. We were able to go around the city with so much ease and comfort knowing we wouldn't have to walk after a long day of walking. This is a family owned place; the family has really made it a homey place. If you get a chance to stay here don't think twice.
