Placid Hotel Design & Lifestyle Zurich
Great room, clean and quiet. Just be aware that their is no wall for the shower. Breakfast is expensive (but everything is expensive at Zürich) location was not the best, need to use the tram for transportation, it’s about 25 min away from main attractions. Never felt unsafe.

Mercure Zürich City
We didn't have breakfast. If you are in a comfortable room you do not get a kettle or a safe although the staff did say we could use the coffee machine in the lobby and lockers by reception. Nice spa area though the hot tub was out of use.

Hotel Scheuble
We arrived early in the morning and were given the optionfor an early check-in rather than wait for an upgrade. We went for the early check-in and the room met all of our needs. So happy to be able to unpack and chill for a bit. We were close to the train station, shops, and restaurants.
