The hotel is very modern; the glass windows open with the touch of a button.
The breakfast was very good and varied.
Parking is not free, but it's covered and very secure.
I was very satisfied with the service and the cleanliness.
It was a fantastic stay, the room had an incredible confortable space. The building is well equiped with all the amenities and staff is professional and friendly
My stay was quite enjoyable and peaceful. The housekeeping staff came by every morning, they were friendly and attentive.
The front desk staff were helpful. My room was clean and the given glassware was beautiful.
My only complaint would be a strange smell emanating from the bathroom drain. It was pungent and not a pleasant stench.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Hotel is located conveniently from the tram and close also to a small supermarket. Check in was quick and good lift access. Room was excellent, comfortable bed and a nice hot shower. Quiet, clean and warm.
Hotel is modern and clean. It is situated in quiet business/ residential area of Zurich.
We stayed just one night
Staff very friendly and helpful; when I asked about Zurich Art Museum address and directions, not only I got a map with info, but also got a double voucher for museum tickets.
Minimalistic theme grew on me. Loved the breakfast. Tram and bus stops about 3 blocks walk - very good access. Dust bunnies on the floor under the bed. Other than that very clean. Face clothes included with towels. Safe location.
It is nice place stay for a family. It is not at City Center, but close and easy to get there through the Tram system.
Staff are courteous and attentive. Breakfast is outstanding. The rooms are neat and nice. Very clean.
Our family had a lovely stay at Placid Hotel in Zurich. The rooms were clean and the bed was very comfortable. We dined at the hotel restaurant and it was delicious. So was the breakfast in the morning. The staff was kind enough to explain how to use Zurich's public transportation, so we used the tram and bus system to visit several sites around the city.
Once you work out the buses, trams and trains, its a good location. Shops and eating places close by. Hotel itself is comfortable and staff were friendly and helpful. Happy to recommend and would definitely stay there again.
The hotel was very nice with most of the amenities. The hotel was very clean with a restaurant as a convenience. Only drawback is they are no ac. Otherwise, very nice energy-efficient.
