1. Hotel Alden Splügenschloss Zürich - Leonardo Limited Edition

Enge, 1.7 km from ETH Zurich

"The view is amazing. If your coming from the USA. No ac so summer is hotter but at night it gets in the 50s so it’s very nice. The hotel is amazing. You have coop (grocery) right downstairs. Nearby restaurants are amazing. The waterfall view from the terrace is breathtaking. In the states we would pay $1k-$2k a night for this alone. I loved this place so much it will be hard to replace this setting. Staff was great. Great hidden gem!!!"
