Zurich hotels near Helvetiaplatz

Cons: Breakfast was super expensive , two cups of tea or coffee was 10 dollars. they had no converters to change the voltage to 115, to charge my phone, they rent them if they have any for a 20 dollar deposit

Cons: I booked this online thinking it was a budget hotel, considering the price. Receptionist didn't greet us with a smile nor he was being rude or anything but room is already booked and we're checking in at 6pm so I guess he thought no need to be nice. Surprise came next morning. While we were checking out he asked 49chf and I was shocked as for why. It was for the breakfast we ate. Now, nobody told us anything about breakfast not being included and its hotels around this price range you would assume it is. I was really furious about it coz only salami yogurt and coffee at 22chf per person breakfast wow l. What a rip off! What annoyed us the most is that receptionist guy didn't give any info about absolutely anything but when it comes to collect money.... I even had to ask about the Internet connection, he said 'written on the paper', the stuff that he gave us with the room key.

Cons: far from the center. need to use tram

Cons: Dirty coffee cups not changed out. Face towels removed from bathroom but not replaced. Used tumblers left as is.

Cons: Noisy bed

Cons: The breakfast could have been a bit better.

Cons: The staff are rude, unapologetic, and unsympathetic. The beds are none standard so a queen bed is two smaller ones next to each other. They must have used some cardboard to connect two smaller mattresses because the bed was so uncomfortable I slept 0 hours the first night. They will tell you they are out of mattress toppers. If you keep asking they will bring you a tinny one that doesn’t fit the mattress but it’s the best they can do... They give you two single bnlankets for your queen bed. These things are so small that I couldn’t sleep with them. Nothing more romantic than sharing a queen bed but your partner is shivering under her own tinny blanket. When we asked for a queen blanket, we were told the hotel is fully booked and they don’t have any more... so they don’t stock enough bedding for all their beds... Anyways I could tell you how my complaints lead to a duvet less blanket from the storage room that was so yellow and dirty and still not queen sized but I will skip that story... DONT pay for the breakfast. Just ask to take a look before you commit. Mush of eggs were watery and the cheese and meat looked like they had been sitting out for days (8am). I have no idea how they get away with this overpriced breakfast. So atmosphere sucks, food is bad, comfort is horrid, and the staff never asked if I needed anything or apologized for selling a queen room with amenities of a single room.

Cons: Having to pay for parking at the hotel in which you are a guest. Wifi connection was poor inside of the rooms.

Cons: Contrary to online profile, only housekeeping every 3rd day, very "lean" kitchenette, minimal Nespresso refills, no A/C (south-facing rooms are very hot...can't imagine July), bed only accessed on one side.

Cons: Breakfast was not necessarily free for everyone, but for our reservation it was, they just needed to confirm that in the morning.

Cons: When we arrived to the hotel The receptionist told us that she was going to give us an upgrade (we were happy becuase we weren’t asking for it) so she send us tomroom 3707 ( the smallest room at the hotel, specially for singles). My wife and I were upset about the size, so next morning we went to the front desk and met Joao Reies, great professional who inmediatly changed our room to the one we were expecting it. Thanks to him we had a great night. We want to thank Joao for his actitud and friendly listening to us..

Cons: Poor parking facilities. Expensive and difficult to park a "normal" sized car. A 10-15 minute walk to eating areas. Thai restaurant was expensive and so-so.
