Zurich Homestays

With the stay in a 6-bed dorm room being just an ordinary experience, the best about this place in my opinion are outside the room and specifically the ”wide corridors” nicely spacious to walk around & the ”huge lounge” downstairs with plenty of work-spaces (big tables & chairs all around). And yes, also pretty ”nice & filling” was its buffet-styled breakfast with really a variety of items (actually food available throughout the day with lunch & dinner as well but which you have to pay for unlike the breakfast included with the stay). If coming here from the Zurich Central (HB) Station, there's the train first to Hardbrucke (just one station from HB) followed by the bus to Jugendherberge (about a 15-minute ride and getting off at the station just before its last stop of Morgental). And if going downtown from here to the area with the city's ”main churches” (Fraumunster, Grossmunster & St. Peter's), there's a tram at just about a 5-minute walk ”straight from” the front entrance (and likely at a frequent interval).

At first you might worry about passing through a min supermarket to enter the hotel but it was not a problem . It was also good idea because anything you needed was right there or a fairly reasonably priced eatery next door. For the price I paid compared to other EU countries it's worth less than half the price but it's Zurich so everything is expensive. The location is excellent easy it's easy walk to the train station. I would stay here aging if the price was much lower. Remember the are no elevator so you must log your suitcase up many flights of stairs.

The Swiss Star Franklin provides a great place for travelers to relax after a busy day. The Swiss Star Franklin is an ideal choice for travelers who want to take in the sights and sounds of Zurich.Boasting a convenient location, the hotel is just 400m from Zurich Oerlikon Train Station and 7km from Zürich Airport. The nearby area boasts an abundance of attractions including Auto Zürich Car Show und Auto Zürich CLASSIC, Halle 622b and Heart of Jesus Church.When guests have some time on their hands they can make use of the onsite facilities.

Very spacious, very comfortable and clean. Also an excellent location, in a quiet neighborhood but within walking distance to the city center. Stayed there twice and would stay again if I am in Zurich. Also the reception was very attentive to my requests. I would recommend it.

This “apartment” was terrible. We were with friends there. On various floors, but the quality of the rooms was equally bad. The windows could not be opened. So it was very warm, what is not going on for people with asthma at all. Despite the ventilator that was on all day, it was estimated 26 degrees Celsius in the room. Due to the Indian Imbiss' you constantly smell Indian food. You can't be well lying on the double beds. What's worse is on the sleep a drawable sofa. On the walls is found partly make-up and also inexplicable prints. In the bathroom there was a lack of soap and cleanness of washing basins, toilet, Badroom and shower. The floor in the bathroom and the rest of the apartment was sticked. On the day of departure, you could stand badly (only to third) in the driving chair with 1 bag because bed linen and waste bags were in. No one should recommend!

Let’s start with the good things. The apartment was clean and spacious and so was the bathroom. Well equipped with the kitchen and appliances. But unfortunately our stay was not comfortable. We were travelling as a family so we booked two studio apartments but the apartments were at two very different floors. The room was really really hot with no air conditioning. They did provide a fan which was not good at all. We requested for an extra fan but they didn’t provide that and because of heat we couldn’t sleep at all. They do have a parking but one needs to pay extra for the parking which is quite expensive. We paid 80 euros for 3 days but even then sometimes our parking spot was taken by the others. Even after paying this much amount, one is always under stress because of your spot is taken by someone else and you’ve parked somewhere else then there’s a possibility of getting your car towed away. We had to make multiple calls to the service office as they don’t have any service counter. One needs to make calls(not cost effective at all) or communicate through the email to get in touch with them which is very inconvenient. Also they didn’t offer cleaning services even once during our stay. Also they don’t have any house shoes in the apartment. So if you have any other option then please go for it. I wouldn’t recommend anyone staying there especially in summer months.

Nice hostel, much better than a regular hostel and gives more privacy. Also nice and cool in the dorm room. Vending machine takes card and receptionist was helpful. Though we were told we needed to scan our card to enter the room but the door just appeared unlocked so no sure how secure this is as we didnt need to scan. Perhaps at night once the receptionist leaves you need to scan then. Showers are nice and they supply towels and hair dryers. Only other thing was the slamming of doors, you think it would be common courtesy not to do this but it would appear not. Staff could possibly install something on the door to stop it slamming or some sort of silencer. Could also do with the house rules inside the capsule as some guests need reminded that they are sharing with others. Would stay here again.

This was my second stay at this property having enjoyed one earlier in the year. The accommodation is simple enough but comfortable. It has a kitchenette with fridge which proved very handy given the heat as I kept it stocked with drinks. The electric plug in fan was also useful for same reason. Bed very comfortable although the softness of the pillows took a bit of getting used to. Building in the main very quite although if there is events going on outside you will hear. Great location tram/bus stop a couple of hundred yards away as is a nice pub, supermarket, main train station also walking distance as is the centre if Zurich so ideal for exploring. Definitely will be staying again in future.

We spent one night the room is clean the bathroom equipped the staff very kind and helpful the coffee and tea at will the beds comfortable the hotel is well located There are many restaurants where we can eat international and local food or just to take a coffee or tea
