Booked the hotel for one night, cool hotel. Room was small but well designed with all the needed amenities. Price was good. Location was fantastic in the middle of everything, restaurants and shops. The breakfast was much better than all the bigger hotels. The hotel is well worth it.

We were meeting in Zurich after some extended business trips and needed a nice place to stay for the night. Luckily, we both arrived early enough that we were able to enjoy the hotel and the Swiss nightlife. The hotel is a wonderful little B&B that resides over the bar itself. It actually took us a bit to find the... More

Zurich is expensive. Fact. And this hotel was considerably cheaper than the average so on that note i wasn't expecting to much. I was happy that they had Ipad 1s to borrow (for the entire stay) and was happy with our plain but large room. It had an awful view but hey it came with a fridge filled with drinks,... More

Platzhirsch has a great central location close to heaps of restaurants, transport, shopping and attractions.

It was cheap by the standards of Zurich - beware this place is... More

Staying for business, I enjoyed the location though the room itself was too small and the building itself needs refurbishing. Hotel staff was friendly and the croissants at breakfast were surprisingly great. If on a short trip and in need of something very central, this hotel is fine.

The hotel is in a lovely old part of Zurich. It's a really pretty neighborhood to walk around. While for Zurich, it's not expensive, there are things about the hotel that detract. The platz on which it is located can be very noisy, especially since the hotel has a bar with tables on the street below the windows. The standard... More

On a Sunday evening, we had to get down in the loby (which is a bar ... as well) in order to have the techno music decreased. The day after, when telling the responsible person about this, she said: "Oh I'll tell the barman to stop". Well, thank you...
