Staying at the top of Zurich is great. However it was troubling having to pull our luggage up a huge hill to get to the hotel. And they also had no air conditioning in the room. With it being summer, it was absolutely boiling in the room. However, nice stay, the view and the restaurant are great.

Beautifully situated, but you can stay at similar places with much less hassle (auto free, train travel, etc.) Thank goodness it stormed the night we were there or we would have roasted alive with no AC. The wait staff in the restaurant were very kind, however, the girls at the reception were very snobby. They seemed annoyed that they needed to do their jobs (answer basic questions/check in/check out). One in particular was downright rude and was definitely not the warm welcome you would expect when paying so much to stay. Love the luggage service from the train station!

This place had the most amazing views of Zurich and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. However the area is really inconvenient for those looking to go out after 11pm. The only way to the hotel is by train which drops you off at the bottom of their long driveway which was fine most of the time. However once the trains are done, ubers or any other cars are not able to drive on the road that takes you directly to the train station due to a new imposed fine on unauthorized vehicles (according to our uber driver). The closest an Uber can go towards the hotel leaves you with a 40 minute walk through the pitch black woods on trails essentially, including the inclined driveway up (even near the hotel there is no light up the driveway.) The hotel itself is amazing, yet the accessibility of it really is a downer. Just from a point of view!

This hotel is beautiful. It is away from the city with a short walk from the train station to the hotel. There are beautiful views of the city of Zurich and the lake and mountains. The staff of the hotel were very efficient and accommodating. The only complaint we had was on the Saturday night there was a wedding and the guests were very loud until 2:00 am. The other two nights we were there it was very quiet.
