Oetwil am See hotel guide. Swiss Quality Hotels hotel in Oetwil am See, Zürich

"The property is expensive, but in many ways worth it. Always a taxi available. Taxi to airport approx $60 (US currency) each way or you can make your way to the train station (10 min walk). The staff is very helpful and welcoming. Marco greeted us and gave us an excellent introduction to the hotel and facilities. Valentina, at the front desk, went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our stay. They were both amazing people and made us feel very welcome. Everyone spoke English, among other languages, and was polite. The bar prices were reasonable. The staff there were very friendly. Bad things: The food is very poor in quantity and quality, especially for the prices charged. I am not saying this as an "American who expects large portions". We paid $14 each for 2 soups (one mushroom, one wonton). Both were about 3/4 cup. The mushroom was completely creamed, like Campbells worthy and the wonton was poor watery chicken broth with odd meat filled breadsticks that apparently were the wontons (this is not a dumpling). We also got a chicken Ceasar salad for $28 which is essentially 1 grilled chicken breast and 4 small leaves of lettuce under it. For desert we said well let's get the NY Cheesecake. I don't know what that was, but cheesecake it was not. More like custard pie. We couldn't finish it. Even though everything in Zurich is very expensive, it would be nice to know the hotel was a good option, but it is definitely not. Our total bill for the meal was about $80 US. "

"We just stayed for one night. Very convenient and close to the airport. Room was clean. No complaints. "

"It was due to the other positive reviews that I found this Allegra Hotel. The hotel is nice, clean, affordable and conveniently close to the train station to go to Zurich, to the Lindt Home of Chocolate! The bus is a 3 min walk from the hotel and a 15 min ride to the airport. The staff is very helpful and personable, especially Noelle, Florenza and Manuela. The room is nice, clean and spacious, and the bed very comfortable. Kettle in our room for instant coffee or tea, there is also an expresso machine down in the lobby which is a welcome addition! We had delicious pizzas at Giadiono within waking distance of the hotel. Overall we really enjoyed our 2 nights at Allegra Lodge and highly recommend this place."
