Hotel Alexander Zurich Old Town

This is a very nice place to stay. The location is central old town with many sights, bars and restaurants nearby and Lake Zurich an easy walk away. Public transport (central train station, tram stops and Polybahn cable car) are also very close by. All the staff were friendly and helpful. WiFi worked perfectly and I was offered the use of a free mobile hotspot device as mobile data roaming was problematic, given that Switzerland is not in the EU. The breakfast offered was tasty and more than adequate, and because I had to leave the hotel too early to be able to have breakfast on several mornings, the staff put together a "lunchbox" that was delivered to the fridge in my room every day. Coffee, tea and water were available free of charge 24/7 in the lobby. My room was compact but very well designed with attention to detail; plenty of clothes hangers (and not the mean variety without a hook either : ), towel rails and heaters, a magnifying mirror in the bathroom, plenty of sockets (some with permanent power and adaptors for various different plugs) and of course a comfortable bed. If/when I return to Zurich, I won't hesitate to stay here again!

The hotel is a family owned small hotel. The staff at the reception welcomed us warmly. The room was modernly decorated and very clean. The bed was extremely comfortable. They offer free drinks at the minibar. Coffee machine is available at the entrance for free tea and coffee. The apples served at the reception were delicious. The breakfast was reasonable. The staff was always nice to everyone. The location is close to many places. There are cafes and restaurants at every corner. It was a very pleasant stay for us. Could not find anything to criticize.

In the heart of Zurich's atmospheric Old Town. A smallish and simply furnished room, but with many thoughtful details that made it a very comfortable and pleasant stay. Although a single room, the bed was comfortable and a very generous size. Plug sockets for various countrys' plug types are built in (including UK). I had requested a kettle in the room, and found it waiting for me there. Some complementary drinks are provided in the mini-fridge, and free self-service tea/coffee is provided in the entrance foyer at any time. Inclusive breakfast was standard fare and of very decent quality. Would be very happy to return and recommend.

Excellent location - right in the heart of the tourist area for dining etc. Despite that, our room was exceptionally quiet! The hotel staff was excellent, especially the woman (Ronah?) who checked us in and helped us as we were departing and looking for a lost wallet… I also liked the few small perks: coffee 24/7, apples, a beer or water in the room upon your arrival. Breakfast was excellent!!

Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Comfortable bed, everything we needed. We particularly liked the position which meant we went out in the evening, we were amongst great restaurants, and enjoyed a lovely wander round the old town. We did hear people outside, but ear plugs were provided, which we didn't need to use, as the noise did not reach a level to bother us, just made us feel happily on holiday, and hey! It was England v Switzerland! We were also easily able to walk to and frm the station in 5 mins. Good information provided as well, thank you!
