Top ETH Zurich Hotel Reviews

Ruby Mimi Hotel Zurich by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Had to request for everything"

Franziskaner by Centra

10/10 Excellent

"Staff is amazing, location is perfect and the room is clean and lovely."

Bristol Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel Bristol was conveniently located a short walk from the Bahnhofstrasse and Old Town. The weather was exceptionally hot this summer and the Swiss government places limits on how much air conditioning can lower temperatures in hotel rooms. For this reason, suggest requesting a room on the lower floors of the hotel in the warmer months."

citizenM Zürich

Hotel Schweizerhof Zürich

10/10 Excellent

"I loved everything about this luxury hotel. I wanted to rate everything excellent but I could not get my phone to move over to that part of the field. I loved the candy butler; the small face clothes; the amenities on the refrigerator that is complimentary( being shown to the room; the food on the restaurant was superb( a cafe right next door; a door man; easy to navigate the hallways to the breakfast room and find the elevators; accommodated by making sure the room was nice and cozy. EVERYONE THERE IS SWEET AND AWESOME. This is my favorite hotel so far. Breakfast is included in the room price. Had a nice quiet sleep. Near the train station"

Hotel Felix

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in a great location for seeing the city as it is close to trams, buses and main railway station. The hotel is perfectly nice, however there are major roadworks being undertaken outside the hotel at the main entrance. The works start just after 7am and finish around 5pm Monday to Friday. Not sure how long the work will continue but early in the morning the noise of the digger and other mechanical equipment can be noisy. My room faced the road."

St Gotthard Hotel

8/10 Good

"It Was a very good place to stay, can’t fault it"
