Very clean room with a comfortable bed. It is centrally located to the central train station. The front desk people were very nice. We were able to check in early.
I loved the location of this hotel. The room was very clean. The lobby area was a little tight

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff was friendly. Check-in was easy. The location was great! Ten minute walk from central train station. The room was clean and quirky, like the hotel. The room itself was not well lit and the pillows were flat. Because we were there in December we didn't have to worry about the a/c.but it was still warm
Incredibly close to the Zurich HB train station, so getting in from the Zurich airport was so easy. We had our luggage held while we walked through old town and found something to eat. Housekeeping staff was phenomenal and we were able to check in a little earlier and got to grab a couple of hours of sleep before we ventured out again!! We would definitely stay here again.
Nice hotel great location. Chocolate fountain was a nice touch along with the chocolate theme. Rooms were small but sufficient for our stay. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Would recommend.
We spent two nights at Swiss Chocolate by Fassbind in Zurich and really enjoyed our stay. The location was convenient, the room was clean and comfortable, and we loved the fun chocolate-themed decor. A sweet and cozy spot to relax after exploring the city!
It was a reasonably priced, clean hotel in a very convenient location. Some reviews mentioned the air conditioning didn’t work well but it was definitely cool enough in our room and the weather was very warm during our stay. The rooms were pretty small though like a lot of European hotels.
Great Location, numerous eating options right in the heart of old town and less than a 10 minute walk to the Banhof! Very safe area as well.
Room was clean, European spartan, but everything you need. Check-In/Check-Out was very simple.
If you are looking to be where young and hip folks are and where different eateries are, this is the place for you! The vibe of the hotel is very cool and I liked that there was a reasonable priced breakfast available in the morning. Zurich is expensive, but this cute hotel is not--big thanks!
