Hotel Limmatblick

We were only staying for one night and we were looking for a bed and a bathroom in a good location and that's what we got. There were not any low budget hotels near the train station available so we ended up here. The reservation said the check in was 12:00 but when we got there they told us the room would not be available until 2:00pm. If we had known this we would have stayed a little longer at the airport lounge to which we had access. The room was small with no air conditioning and we had a nice view of the river. We could open the windows to cool down the room and they did a good job of keeping the noise from the street out. The bathroom was small and bare minimum with a small shower, toilet, and sink that were functional. The TV was the size of a postage stamp and not functional in any way. No breakfast service. There is a small bar on the ground floor which we didn't use but they did provide us with some ice. Bottom line the only thing this hotel has going is the location but there are better options for the $200+ we paid for one night. The rating is based on a lack of anything, the relatively high cost, and location.

I loved this place. Riverfront location just a few hundred meters from the central train station. Easily walkable. Close to Old Town and Tour bases. Comfortable room. Not a 5 star hotel, but we weren't paying for 5 stars. A bit hard to find as the lobby is actually a bar. BEST HOTEL CHECK-IN DESK EVER. Room overlooked the riverfront and was just steps from a number of restaurants and nightclubs. We will come back to Zurich and this will be our number one choice of hotel.
