Ruby Mimi Zurich
They are very willing to speak English. When bar is busy, service is slow. However, buffet breakfast was fabulous. Room was small, but very clean! We recommend this hotel!

Central Plaza Hotel
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The staff were incredibly helpful and made me feel welcome from the moment I arrived. Their professionalism and attentiveness throughout my stay were truly commendable and added greatly to the overall experience. My only suggestion would be for the hotel to reconsider ...

Zurich Marriott Hotel
10 minutes walk to the main train station and bus stops. The double room is spacious and clean. Breakfast offers varieties of choices but the bead is not as good as that in town.
