10 Top-Rated Bed and Breakfast Inns in Zurich

April 27, 2023 Terina Blouin

The largest city in Switzerland is a major contemporary art and shopping destination. Important artworks are displayed in the Kunsthaus and the Rietberg Museum, while those who consider shopping an art can hone their skills along Bahnhofstrasse and Niederdorf. Chagall's stained glass windows in the Fraumunster amaze and Zurich's 500 clubs and bars, including several in swimming pools, pulse with life 'til the early hours. This city on Lake Zurich has excellent public transit and a free bike rental system.

Excellent location and value for money

Hôtel Marta is really in the heart of Zurich. The location is amazing. It can become noisy during the night as it is in the old town. The room was very clean. The staff is kind and helpful. Very good value for money. Overall, an excellent hôtel.

The Gate Boutique Hotel Zurich

New hotel, with a lot of flair and charm. Rich breakfast buffet, airport shutle, cool bar and great service.

No air-conditioning

Reviewed By cand013

Just a heads up for those staying in the summer, there is NO air conditioning at this hotel. I was kicking myself thinking I must have forgotten to check before booking, but no, it clearly advertises this online. They assured us the room would be cool with the black-out blinds, but it was not. As a side note, I somehow managed to overlook this in the photos online, but the bathroom is a sliding glass door from the rest of the room. No noise barrier, very little privacy. Otherwise, the room did look very clean and the staff were nice. It is a short taxi from the airport.

Too damned hot

Reviewed By TRBUK

Turned all of the radiators off but the room was too warm. Otherwise it was great location. I went out rather than eat at the steakhouse but it looked popular. I saw a criticism about it being hard to find but it's very easy to locate. Well placed for trams etc and perfect to explore the Old Town.

Terrible restaurant

Reviewed By 931cvb

If you want to eat after 17:00 in the weekend, go somewhere else ! Not clear on the website at all but we found out the hard way: the kitchen of this restaurant closes at 17:00. If you arrive at 17:05, like we did: bad luck, no food.

Basic

Reviewed By colette a

If you’re not spending time hanging out in your room this place works. The bed was fairly comfortable and the room was clean. However, we only had 2 carryon bags and there was nowhere to put them. A small kitchenette was there but no table to eat at. There is no elevator. As we only returned to sleep each day it worked out. Walking through the small bodaga each night was deadly- all those snacks available!

Homestay Zurich Center

Worst place I have seen ever! Don’t book this place!

Reviewed By Widehupf118

Es scheint ein klares Muster der Betreiber von Homestay Zurich zu sein, denn genau dieselben Beanstandungen sind in den Bewertungen für Homestay an der Kanzleistrasse zu lesen. Das Muster: mit wenig Aufwand grösstmöglichen Profit erzielen, Beanstandungen und Kundenwünsche ignorieren. Die lokale Polizei ratet davon dringend ab, da Kriminaltouristen hier hausen. Es gab morgens um 06:30 eine Razzia. Hygiene: Das Zimmer wurde während des ganzen Aufenthaltes von 10 Tagen nie gereinigt. Abfall nie entsorgt. - Bett: Matratze auf Brett - Nichtraucherzimmer = Rauchen ist nicht gestattet: obwohl das Rauchverbot in den Zimmern von Bewohnern nicht eingehalten wird und beanstandet wurde, unternimmt die Besitzerin nichts dagegen (bei Rauchen wird Strafe von CHF 200 angedroht). - Lärm: in einer Wohnung machten Zimmernachbarn über Nacht soviel Lärm, Dreck und Schmutz in Küche, sowie Toilette, so dass ich vom 1.OG ins 2.OG wechseln musste. Es wurde im 1.OG geraucht & gekifft und stank penetrant auf der ganzen Etage und im Treppenhaus nach Joint. Pro Etage gibt es 3 Zimmer. Der Wechsel erfolgte mit Auszug Vormittags und Einzug Nachmittags. Meine Waren musste ich für die Zwischenzeit aus dem Zimmer nehmen. - Haartrockner: fehlte - Bügeleisen fehlte - Duschkabine: Vorhang herunter gerissen, Decke mit schwarzem Schimmel, Lüftung funktioniert nicht - Kaffee- und Teezubehör: nicht vorhanden - Schallisolierung: gegen aussen ja, gegen innen nein. Man hört jedes Wort was Nachbarn in ihren Zimmern sprechen. - Bügeleinrichtungen: nicht vorhanden - Sitzbereich: Stuhl erst nach Beanstandung vorhanden - Toilette: Kloschüsseln lottern und werden beim spülen verspritzt. Stinkt nach Urin. - Sicherheit: Rauchmelder nicht vorhanden. Die Zimmertüre dürfte sehr einfach zu knacken sein. Dies ist beunruhigend, da die Haustüre immer offen und keine Reception vorhanden ist - Bett: Bettanzug nicht gebügelt (= unsteril). Wurde in 10 Tagen nie gewechselt. - Ausstattung: Möbel billig, wackelig und mit Brandflecken ausgestattet. Wände mit Flecken.
