The Hotel:
Hotel Greulich is a "Design Hotel" located close to the centre of Zurich (Switzerland) and is named after Herman Greulich, a Polish social reformer who emigrated to Switzerland and founded the first Socialist Party of Switzerland (the hotel is situated on the corner of Herman-Greulich Strasse).
On arrival, my wife and I were a bit disappointed with the building from the outside. Although it was a unusual and cool exterior design, it looked like it needed sprucing up a bit. The windows on the 1st floor and above looked quite old, etc. but at ground floor level, it did look "Design", with a modern looking bar and restaurant.
After parking in the secure car park behind the hotel (20 Swiss Francs (CHF) per day), we checked in at reception and were taken to our room. The room was in a small interior courtyard ...
Advantages: Location, breakfast, comfort, cleanliness Disadvantages: Small; a little pricey
Helmhaus Swiss Q Hotel is one of the hotels in Zurich offered by Expedia in their flight plus hotel deals, and this is how we discovered it. Whilst not the cheapest option, its central location meant we could save both time and money travelling to and from the city. What's more, breakfast is included in the price. Reviews on Tripadvisor were very favourable, and a look at the hotel's website further encouraged us to make it our choice. We did not regret this.
My son and his partner booked a double room for three nights, and I booked a single for one night only. I cannot comment on how easy it is to book the hotel directly, as our reservations were made through Expedia. We booked in June for a stay in late August.
All three of us travelled with hand luggage only, and in about fifteen minutes we were easily able to walk from Zurich ...
Advantages: handy place for shops Disadvantages: staff, hotel,
when we arived at this hotel after a long taxi journey which takes aroudn 40 mins in a taxi from charles de gaul to this hotel it cost 60 euros which is really extreme.
when we arrived we thought the staff were really rude and it didnt help that a couple of them couldnt understand a word of english, the hotel looked mucky and seedy and the carpets were up to dado level and were really dirty.
the lift was no help because it couldnt even fit in our cases never mind us (2 of us) - we were on teh top floor i think it was the 5 floor and it was a treck to climb up the winding steps with our cases when there shoudl ahve been a lift.
we finally got to the top and with our keys we opened the doors and my first impression was this is disgusting tehre were 3 beds and a tv and a little balcony. the rooms were ok but nothign very ...
