Hottingen Hotels

I had an excellent stay at the Hotel Seefeld. I decided to cab to the hotel after arriving early in the morning on an overnight flight from the US -- about 65 Swiss Francs (about $70). The staff who greeted me told me that it would be easier to take the train back to the airport (take the S16 to Stadelhoffen and then walk or take the tram about .5 miles down Seefeld Street), and it would cost about ($7). The staff also immediately set me up with an available room, so I could get a nap. This is not a luxury hotel, i.e., no one running to grab your bags and carry them for you and then expecting a tip, but it is a nice hotel. The lobby is right next to the front door, as is the bar, where you eat breakfast. My room was very modern, and the only downside was the bed, which was comfortable, but consisted of two mattresses next to each other -- it would not be ideal for romance. Being required to insert your door key into a wall slot to operate the lights also takes some getting used to, but at least it made it difficult to lose your room key when you were in your room. Breakfast was included in the price we paid, and it was good -- a buffet that included scrambled eggs, yogurt, cheese, some sandwich meet, breads, juices, coffee/tea, and croissants. Once I was settled into the hotel, downtown was a short walk/tram away, and there were many great restaurants nearby. Overall an excellent experience while on a business trip.

Hotel Ambassador is beautifully located near the lake and opera house, the staff are really helpful and rooms are comfortable and stylish. An excellent base for trips to zurich.

Great staff really helpful nothing was to much trouble. Food was very good. Nice large room close to the lake. Would stay there again.

This is a nice little hotel near the Platte tram stop. From Zurich Hbf you can just take tram #6 towards the zoo to get there. This room had a large nice bathroom, but the main part of the room would be considered small by American standards yet it was big enough to be comfortable. The bed was very comfortable and I liked how quickly the room filled with fresh air when I opened the windows. The bathroom had a window that could be opened which is something I always appreciate. The staff was extremely friendly.

A lovely hotel with fantastic views, staff very helpful and polite. The restaurant menu is not extensive but the quality of the food is top class with reasonable prices and a good selection of wines. The room was very comfortable and clean, the beds very comfortable. Not sure how the local AC unit will cope in hot summer days (No central Air Conditioning system). There is excellent and frequent travel connection to Zurich city centre comprising of a Cog-Wheel rail car that stops just outside the hotel entrance; this in turn connects you to trams Nos. 3, 8 and 15 all of which will take you to city centre. Enjoyed our stay in May 2014.

great accomodation, great restaurant, fantatsic the way that there is a computer wuth internet access in every room, comfortable bed, great idea to advise clients that they clean the matresses regularly etc staff are very friendly and helpful and facilities were very good small lift though !!!

I considered staying at 3 other hotels but I am so glad I settled on Ladies First because it was wonderful. I was greeted with kindness and helpfulness and I really liked my room on the 4th floor. It was super clean and had everything I needed from tea pot to free wireless internet. Bed was comfortable too. I had to check out before breakfast and the clerk at the front desk made me an espresso at my request. Do not hesitate to book here.

Our room was very clean and the overall experience was wonderful. Would highly recommend Hotel Opera to anyone looking for a quaint, boutique hotel.
