ibis Styles Zurich City Center

Booking for 1 night only for a quick stop in Zurich. Hotel very close to the city center, 5 minutes walking from the main HB station. Got upgraded to double room at an higher floor (with city view) for free during the check-in process. Room size fair enough. Double bed, mattress and pillows were okay. Keep in mind that the bathroom, sink and showers is “connected” directly with the room; only a curtain divide themselves. WC, instead, is located in a “little room” separated and closed with a door. Room’s soundproofing could be better. Breakfast okay.

This hotel is centrally located in Zurich, just a short walk from the Hauptbahnhof (central station), making it extremely convenient for travelers. As a budget option, it attracts a diverse range of guests, which adds to its character. The breakfast buffet exceeded my expectations, offering a wide variety to suit every taste — a definite highlight of my stay. I would also like to commend the young team at reception. Étienne (if I recall the name correctly) handled our check-in with professionalism and confidence, which I greatly appreciated. As a European traveler, I found the service entirely appropriate and efficient. I’m aware of some negative comments about the reception staff, but my experience was thoroughly positive. Overall, I would gladly stay here again.

While I was a little early to check in for the room, there was somewhere that I could wait a while beforehand. The air conditioning was a godsend given the heat outside. The breakfast had hot and cold options beyond what I would expect for a continental European hotel. The proximity to Zurich HB was really handy for getting there and away. Good sound deadening dulled the noise from tram line works that were ongoing outside; fatigue from an early start additionally ensured a good night's rest, which helped on Friday night when more noise was being made.

The location is excellent, conveniently close to Zurich HB train station. The hotel staff were very attentive and provided detailed directions to reach the hotel via public or private transport through the booking chat. The check-in counter staff were incredibly helpful, patient, and responsive to all my questions. They even recommended restaurants to experience authentic Swiss cuisine in Zurich. Additionally, the pay per use laundry room on level 2 is very convenient and well-maintained. However, you need to read the laundry service instruction in details and buy the token from check-in counter.

Super clean , comfortable , fairly quiet for such a central hotel . Great breakfast , lovely bar . Helpful friendly staff . I think it was Lydia who gave us a great recommendation to visit Rhine falls . That really made our trip 😃 . Would recommend highly .
