Air conditioning was excellent during a heat wave. Rooms were comfortable and clean. Renovations won’t be done until 2026 though, so there is a limited menu and inconsistent meal opportunities inside the hotel. We did hear some construction noise (drilling) during the morning. Staff was friendly.

The rooms that we've stayed in ( 2 rooms for a family of 6) are very comfortable with tv, very family-friendly, the washroom is very clean even my kids love it , the place itself is quiet and very convenient since it is near the airport, train stations, walkable restaurants, ample parking for our van as well as those tour buses. The restaurant in the hotel serves also good food if you don't feel like going out. When we come back to Switzerland, I would still book again this hotel for my family.

There was construction going on which made the whole stay messy. Also, it was not mentioned during booking that construction is happening on the booking dates. Bathroom had hairs and were not clean, refrigerator was not working, gallery was smelly! Also, there was no microwave in room or kitchen! Though room was clean, but there was no chair in the room

The hotel was under renovation, and we were given a renovated room. The paint smell was quite noticeable and was not pleasant at all. The worst part was the leaking toilet. The water had flown out of the bathroom and the carpet near the main room entry was wet. It took us a while to figure out it was the toilet. The staff did allocate another room for the night and cancelled the two additional nights we were booked for.

The hotel was renovating while we were there and we enjoyed a new room. We weren’t able to get the room we asked for but staff accommodated us sufficiently. The quality of the rooms is excellent. If you come during 2025 you may have a few issues but staff work hard to make it right.

Room was nice enough but few things needed attention: curtain coming off rail and not completely blackout, tap spout was faulty so spray was in face. We'd booked a family room for 2 adults & 2kids, but room was not set up for this so I asked for another one and they gave me a room set up for 1 adult and 1child.

We stayed over night here before flying back to the States. Despite fact they are undergoing a massive renovation- everything was very nice. The room was clean and perfect for our family of four. I appreciate how they have the rollout already made for the kids. There was coffee in the room and water, which is always nice. It’s conveniently located right off the tram so it was super easy to get to and from the airport. Staff was nice and helpful. Walked to a restaurant for dinner.
