The Hotel Continental Zurich is a nice hotel close to the train station, about five minutes walking distance. A tram stop is right in front of the door. The area the hotel is located in is very nice, one can easily walk around Zurich center without needing any means of transportation. The rooms are nice and offer plenty of space.... More

I enjoyed sating here. The person at the reception was very nice and helpful. The greek waitress at the bar very good in proving tips for the restaurant. The room is very nice, clean and confortable. The hotel, despite its central position, is pretty silent. This is worth to go back. More

Good and clean hotel but not sure about the service and some other issues. Room/Bath Room: Quiet, decent size with TV, air-con, free WiFi, nice bathroom etc., however no replacement of empty/used toiletries such as shower gel. Breakfast: Big choice but not the quickest when it comes to empty plates on the buffet or asking/serving hot drinks such as coffee... More

Thank you for your honest feedback. I am very sorry to read about your very un-Continental-like experience during your stay with us and would like to apologize for our lack of service. I agree that these issues need improvement and I will talk to the breakfast manager as well as the housekeepers and have both teams followed up. Thank you... More

Beautifull hotel near all the sights, restaurants and the fabulous train depot. Was there to enjoy the Christmas Markets and the one in here was great. Lots of shops and restaurants all idoors. Walking street full of wonderful shops just down the street. Love the "lift" but don't expect to get your wholen family in one trip. Only had breakfast... More

Gruezi and thank you for your feedback. I'd be most interested to know exactly what you missed during breakfast. On our buffet we have most cold products, but all warm dishes or any extra wishes can be ordered with your waiter - at no extra charge. I am sorry if we failed to inform you accordingly. As to your remark... More

Had booked for an overnight stay during recent visit to Zurich.Easily walkable from the train station. Had an upgrade on arrival. Very pleasant and friendly reception staff. Had accomodated our request for a late check out as well. The room had a character and one of the most comfortable beds that i had slept in. If i had to pick... More

Good day & thank you for sharing your memorable experience on tripadvisor. I am delighted you enjoyed your stay with us and will certainly forward your compliments to my team. For your problems with the nespresso machine I apologize. Most likely the machine was set on stand-by - and the switch is rather in a invisible place, I have to... More

I would say this hotel's location is great. Not too near the busy area of shopping but close enough. It's on the quiet side of the city and it poses no problem at all. Very near the main train station and also the tram station is just down the road. If you are tired of walking in the shopping street,... More

I stayed here on business in June of 2011. The staff is very helpful and friendly. Accommodations are good. Prices are pretty high, but that is typical in Zurich. The location is within walking distance to the Bahnhoff and other cool downtown locations. I didn't rate the fitness center as I just ran outside. More

Friendly and highly professional hospitality staff in all areas of this fine establishment. The quality and presentation of the property is excellent. It does suffer from the Zurich price structure thus reducing the value for money. None the less I'll be staying here again!, More

It is a nice hotel with all the amenities. The only problem was the beds. Both mattresses in my room had not been changed in years. There was a large hump in the middle (or deep valleys on the sides). Free apple juice in the lobby and close to all the tourist activities. 10 min walk to the train station. More

Thank you for your comments. FYI: the "hump in the middle of the bed" is caused by the down feathered overmattress - on top of the actual mattress - that is unique to our MGallery brand bedding. Hasn't got anything to do with the mattress itself and is certainly removable. Please let us know upon reservation. For your inconveniences I... More
