    Only thing is that bed matrass is quite old and isolation in the room is very low. Breakfast is average, if you have time, then can find better options nearby.

    We were in Zurich for 1 night for concert, so were looking for easily accessible, clean and comfortable hotel with valuable price. Olympia matched our targets, and we didn't regret. Very easy to reach it by tram, hotel staff sends clear instruction before arrival. Room was small, but still there was all needed, even extra lights. Reception was very friendly and helpful, shared useful info tips about city. Summarizing, my stay in the hotel was very comfortable, I didn’t regret and recommend this hotel for short trips.

    - The room is really small(It looks more like a guesthouse than a hotel) - Bed and pillow uncomfortable - There is no fridge in the room(In an expensive city like Zurich you need a fridge in the room to eat and store food) - Almost no isolation, you can hear every kind of voice. Don't forget to bring earplugs(By the way, during check-in, I stated that I was sensitive to sound and wanted one of the quietest rooms. The staff helped me with this)

    - Helpful staff - In a good area(public transports, markets, bakeries) - Ideal for it’s price

    Stayed for two nights in a pleasant enough room . Excellent shower etc. We then stayed again for one night a week later The second time we stayed the room was not particularly good. Shower and toilet in a room and sink in the actual bedroom part. The bed covers in the second room were not as good as the first. Towels adequate. The staff at the hotel were good on both occassions.

    I booked a room for my father. He experienced a lot of noise between 2 and 4 am, when people talk loudly and make other unidentifiable noise as if they were cleaning. I can understand it’s an old building, but for someone who wants a good night sleep it didn’t feel quite right. Also the elevator is tiny. Even for two people it felt tight.

    Friendly staff, good location

    In 2025, from a 3-star hotel in a central area of Zurich, I expect at least one kettle for tea or coffee.

    Room lacked amenities. An electric kettle with tea or coffee should've been there

    The room was comfortable and well sized. The location was excellent. Between two tram stations and supermarkets on either sides. Elevator adds to the comfort. Overall. Very comfortable stay.

    Decent for the city

    Being very honest, Zurich is expensive so this hotel is relatively good value for the city. But trying to be objective the hotel is old. The room was very small. The bedroom was bad, we had a queen size bed but it was 2 beds put together with a gap in the middle, not confortable. Bathroom was clearly not in the best shape. Floor was clearly not too clean. Regarding staff, the first receptionist was a bit rude and barely talked to us when we asked questions. The second guy was nice and recommended good things but he talked a bit too much. We only asked like 3 questions and we talked for more than an hour! (Mostly him explaining with a funny voice, it was weird). The location despite being close to a tram is actually not too pretty, there are some decent restaurants nearby but the close area is not too nice. Honestly all of this is not too bad if it weren't for the price which would be completely insane if it wasn't in this city. If this was in any other place I would have give it less than 7

    Location is very decent since there is a tram stop nearby but is not too close to the city center. 15 min ride or so with the trams. The place is safe and has all the minimum things you need to spend the night.

    I wish there had been a kettle to make a cup of tea. they did give us separate beds but they were combined which was not that comfortable after all. i wish the room had been bigger so at least the beds weren’t that close to each other. it made sleeping uncomfortable. also due to the cold weather in Switzerland, we really longed for a hot cup of tea that we could just make and chill in the room. Finally, none of the channels on the TV was in english, so we couldn't make use of that:/

    it was very central and easy access from many places that we needed to go to. the staff was sweet and friendly. the rooms were clean overall but there was a smell of food in the air when first entered🤔

    They are trying to save every cent. And you can feel it.

    You constantly feel like they try to save money and not spend extra cent. There is a kitchen, but no kettle (they said it's a matter of safety). There is bathtub, but no water-stopper (they said it's to avoid drowning lol), so you won't be able to take a bath. It's a quite cold. Furniture is extremely old. Like very very old. Breakfast is very expensive but contains only slices of bread, butter and some cheap cheese. Not a single hot meal, even fried eggs are not included. It looks and feels like 3-world country cheap motel, but not expensive hotel in Switzerland. Good location. Staff is friendly. Good beds.

    Good friendly staff, location is not bad.
