The hotel is perfectly located near the Main Street and Zurich HB, offering a convenient stay close to everything I needed. The service was top-notch, with a special birthday surprise, but the dining experience fell short on value. The rooms were well-equipped but had a minor issue with the bathroom light. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few hiccups.

The rooms didn't have any major problems, although figuring out the bathroom light at night was a bit tricky. The metal shutters and double-skinned glass wall provided excellent insulation from light and noise.

The hotel room was in many ways overdone with completely useless 'gadgets,' lacking basic functionality for a solo traveler. However, the room itself was very nice, suitable for work, and changed my view completely from expecting a college dorm feel.

Staying at the hotel was a real treat. The rooms were delightful with a very nice bed, fantastic shower, and nice-smelling shower gels. The tech-infused controls added a modern touch that I appreciated, and the TV entertainment was great. However, I would have liked more variety in the fridge than just water.

The facilities were good, but I would have preferred a more varied breakfast. The raw fish option didn't appeal to me, and the dining setup was a bit too simplified for my taste.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were suitable for solo travelers or couples, but I wish I had been informed about the strong perfume odor beforehand. The hotel staff was extremely helpful and had a great attitude, although there were some challenges with putting my credit card on file. The location was perfect, near various attractions and transport links. The dining experience was basic but not the best value for money due to limited service and options.

My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms, while on the small side, served their purpose well for a quick overnight stay in the city. I would have appreciated more than just water in the fridge, though. The layout with the double bed surrounded by walls and a table made it a bit awkward for one person. The service was friendly, although I encountered some issues with the self-check-in process and payment. The location was fantastic, right next to the old botanical gardens and within easy reach of key attractions in Zurich. However, the dining options were limited, which was a downside.

Staying at this hotel felt like experiencing a cross between a Japanese capsule hotel and an Ikea showroom. The rooms were a delightful surprise, with good beds, quiet ambiance, excellent shades, and efficient AC that operated quietly. The tech-infused controls and nice-smelling shower gels added to the charm, making me want to linger and enjoy the cozy space. The compact size was cleverly designed, giving the illusion of more space than its actual 14m².

While the dining options could be enhanced to offer more variety, the prime steaks were a highlight. The iPad-controlled setting, although fun, may pose a challenge for older guests who prefer simpler controls. The early dining timing was a minor inconvenience, compounded by external circumstances beyond the hotel's control.

I had a fantastic stay at the hotel. The rooms were delightful with a very comfortable bed, a fantastic shower, and nice-smelling shower gels. I especially appreciated the tech-infused controls and the nice TV programme that made me want to stay in the room for long periods. However, there were some human hairs and small stains on the bed pillow that needed better cleaning. The metal shutters and double-skinned glass wall kept out all unwanted light and noise, but the room layout with only one accessible side of the double bed made it uncomfortable for one of the occupants.
