First off, this isn't a hotel. It's a hostel. The room was dimly lit and had nothing but a bed and a sink. The only shower on the floor was down a couple steps and around the corner. The two things this place has going for it is location and price. Considering some of the other prices I saw when... More

Tiny rooms that smell like stale cigarette smoke. The floor of my room slanted at about 20 degrees toward the door. And slightly surly front desk staff. Not a great experience. Very good location, not far from the central station is the one strong point. More

I was in Zurich for business for 2 nights. My room was OK, my colleagues’ room were much worse. It was clean and comfortable in an attic. The shower outside was horrible… It is manageable if you don’t want to spend much in a very expensive city! More

It's located in the middle of Zuriches old town surrounded by nice little shops, cafes and restaurants. The price is relatively beareable compared to the rest of this city, but for what you get there its expensive. The slat base of my bed was completely broken but there was noone to talk to at the reception when i found out,... More

Switzerland is an expensive country in Europe so for my partner and I to stay in Zurich we picked this 2 star hotel, which was overpriced but not for the area. The room was clean and so were the sheets. However the bathroom was disgusting and the shower looked like it got cleaned once a month. The separate toilets were... More

I stayed with my boyfriend and a friend of ours for one night before traveling to Nice. The location was great, right in the center of Zurich so there was a ton to do. The room was clean and comfortable and we had a shower in the room, no toilet - there was a shared one just down the hall... More

I read the reviews of the Zic Zac Rock Hotel and expected it to be horrible but when I got there I was pretty suprised. While it is by no means a fancy hotel the desk staff were very nice the room was clean and the shared bathrooms were not a problem. However, the price was a bit steep, but... More

I stayed for 1 night in the Zig Zac Rock Hotel as part of my interailing and despite the negative reviews on Trip Advisor. I found the service to be very good. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. They were particulary great with giving the cheesey tourist advise for someone who had not researched Zurich. I arrived in late... More

My friend and I planned a trip a few years back, and ended up in Zurich late one night with no hotel reservation. This hotel was recommended to us by an agent at a tourism kiosk. We stayed in the 'Supertramp' room. It was filthy. The bathroom fixtures were covered in mold, and there was fecal matter (yay!) left in... More

Avoid this at any cost. All rooms are smoking and do smell like! You can not escape the smell and your clothes, pillow, blanket...everything will smell. Hotel in need of serious renovation. Cueue to shower since 7 am. Dark dark place. Dodgy small toilet with no lock. 1 toilet in 2 floors. Do not spoil your stay in Zurich by... More
