Opened in May 2015, this guest house is located in the northern part of Zurich, a 5-minute walk from the fairgrounds and the indoor stadium.

Breakfast at the restaurant downstairs was amazing. Traditional Swiss breakfast with bread, dairy products and nice cold cuts. The room was as nice as expected with a minimalist, brutalist style. It helped to appreciate the cleanliness. I traveled for business, so location was superb for me. It might not be great if you plan to stay a few days checking the sights in Zurich. However, it's so close to a bus stop that connects to the tram and train, so it's well-connected.

    The host family is very helpful and welcoming. The location is excellent - a short walk from the main station, and very convenient for exploring the old town. There is an abundance of restaurants and bars nearby. The room was comfortable and surprisingly quiet given the central location. Breakfast was good, with decent variety. Overall it seemed like excellent value for money given the superb location in an expensive city.

    Angela was a lovely host for us. Quick to answer queries and flexible when needed. We cut down our stay by a day because of the weather and Angela most gracefully dealt with the issue. Property is clean, everything works, bed is excellent. Staff and manager of restaurant at the ground floor very friendly and happy to assist where possible. In one word: recommended!

    Great location. Nice neighbourhood not sure why some people say it’s a bit dodgy we were walking our baby in a pram at night here and it so were the locals. (Not sure what people are saying about the duvet problem as there was another one in the wardrobe so you had one each).

    Everything, it was an amazing experience, Vanessa, Isabella and team were great hosts. They were quick to respond to all requests and did help us a lot for the whole stay. It was close to the train station (just 5 mins walk). The rooms were really comfortable, neat and clean. During our 6 nights trip, we didn’t even have a single issue. Best apartments in Zurich for a comfortable stay.
