Ruby Mimi Zurich
Lovely room, although compact, it didn’t matter as it was so beautifully designed. Immaculately clean. No tea and coffee making facilities in the room but there is a galley on most floors with a hot drink selection. Loved that the hotel had its own cinema. Breakfast was plentiful and very good ...

ibis budget Zurich Airport
Clean, warm quiet room with comfortable beds (double + single bunk). Friendly staff who spoke multiple languages including English. Highly recommend. Only reason not 5⭐️ is because the shower leaked into the room. So extra towels were needed to mop up the water.
