Dorothee, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Perfect for short trip
Marie-Josée, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Chambre très très petite, chaleur épouvantable. Pour la climatisation, on devait placer un tuyau dans la fenêtre et l’attacher afin qu’il ne tombe pas. Hôtel situé dans un endroit très passant et bruyant. Nous avons changé d’hôtel après une nuit. Les photos ne représentent pas le lieu.
Nathalie, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Budget stay in Zurich

Room was clean and view was good. Tiny space! Shower water temp fluctuating between scalding and freezing the whole time. No real AC, just a room unit requiring you to leave the windows open. Pillows were tiny too. Shower wouldn’t drain. All in all it was clean and safe with good wifi and a convenient location. Glad it was only one night.
Elizabeth, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Budget choice with convenient location and easy access to different attractions and supermarket
SAI HO, 1-night trip

The property is in good condition and located in a good area. It is accesible to various places around the area, which is very nice.

Omar, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The receptionist was very good and helped with all the essentials for my baby and room was compact and hotel was in the center of zurich and had very good public transportation tram near.

Joshua, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Clean and comfy. Close to public transit. Easy walk to cafes, restaurants, and points of interest.
Tara, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location, extremely nice staff, amazing coffee, comfortable room with adequate size. Can’t think of something that I didn’t like (except the big and heavy key chain they use for the room key)
Michael, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Plenty of room for the four of us to stay and 15 min walk to Olde city with plenty of shops and spots to eat. We would stay again.
Mary, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Small clean room

Easy checkin and friendly staff. Rooms were on the small side.

Gute Wahl in Zürich

Preis-/Leistung stimmt absolut. Zentrale Lage, sehr sauber, hervorragendes Bett, freundliche Bedienung, nette Terrasse direkt am Fluss
Josias, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a fantastic stay in Zurich and the Helvetia hotel was perfectly located for everything we wanted to do. Great facilities, great staff. Highly recommend.
Christopher, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Really cool hotel but the room we stayed in is minuscule with very limited space to walk around the bed, let alone put luggage out.
Agnieszka, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Close to the train station; lots of character; quaint and convenient. It is on a busy corner, but the windows and shades make it quiet and dark(er). I've stayed here before and both times were good visits.
Sarah, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Stay away from the Suite room on top floor as there is a roof deck where they throw private parties with noise past midnight. Not ideal for families!
Lindsay, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful, friendly, central hotel

I loved my stay at Helvetia. I was only in town for 2 nights and the location gave me easy access to everything- restaurants, bars, shops, old town, train station, the lake. Staff was friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. The room was cozy but clean and comfortable. Would highly recommended!
Justin, 2-night trip

Superbe hôtel. Très bien situé. Grande chambre magnifique. Très propre.
