The Oldtown Hostel Otter and its old-established Wüste Bar is a stylish place for the young-at-heart in Zürich's Old Town, about 300 metres from the Zürich-Stadelhofen train station and the lake. The hostel offers beds in dormitory rooms, as well as individually furbished private rooms with access to a shared lounge with a kitchenette and luggage storage. Surrounded by a wide choice of restaurants, bars, boutiques and international galleries, the Otter Hostel is also a very convenient place to stay. Wireless internet hotspots are available in the entire Oldtown Hostel Otter free of charge. The Kunsthaus art museum and the opera are a 5-minute walk away and the famous Café Odeon is just around the corner. The nearest airport is Zurich Airport, 9 km from Oldtown Hostel Otter.
