The hotel's location is ideal, central to restaurants, cafes, and shopping areas, and within walking distance of main tourist sites. The rooms are beautiful, though slightly smaller than before, and offer delightful chocolates. The service is exceptionally friendly and hospitable. The dining experience was mediocre, and the facilities overall were satisfactory.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of pleasant surprises and slight disappointments. The rooms were uniquely decorated with riotously lime-green Eames loungers and thoughtful rose petal touches, though the outside area didn't quite match the non-smoking promise. The service was exceptionally helpful and friendly, catering to our needs like providing baby food. The location was a dream, just a short stroll away from Zurich's main attractions, although the nighttime church bells might disturb light sleepers. The dining options were extensive, especially on Saturdays, but seemed to quiet down on Sunday mornings. Overall, a unique hotel with some quirks worth noting.
