My stay at the hotel was a delightful experience overall. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and full of character, with a very welcoming and beautifully furnished design. The staff went out of their way to ensure I had everything I needed, despite a minor inconvenience in retrieving forgotten items from the car. The location was fantastic, offering easy access to the oldest parts of Zurich and being close to key attractions like the Princess Suite and Kunsthaus. The dining experience, while featuring a good selection of quality meats, cheeses, and yogurts, was slightly limited compared to other Swiss hotels. The facilities were well-kept and added to the overall comfort of my stay.
