Ellerby

The location of the hotel is excellent for exploring Zürich city centre and the room is a reasonable place to base yourself for the duration of your trip. Close enough to the centre but away from the hustle and bustle.
On arrival, the receptionist asks you to check yourself in using machines. After doing this we had to ask where we could find our room. The following morning we also needed to ask where breakfast was held as we hadn’t been given this information. The WiFi simply did not work.
The lobby and room itself were basic but clean. The bed was comfortable but the pillows were far from it. There was ample storage space for clothes and the coffee/tea making facilities were always full. The towels in the room were changed regardless of hanging them up (as instructed to save unnecessary washing). The TV had a selection of channels including a few English ones. The hotel was quiet during the night, we were only disturbed by music from another room on the Saturday of our stay.
As the price was so reasonable for Switzerland, it is worth staying in provided you are able to navigate yourself in another country and are not expecting luxury.
