10/10 Exceptional

We had a great time in Zurich. The property is centrally located and within walking distance from all major attractions in the City. The room and the hotel was clean and we especially loved the cafe on the ground floor. We definite recommend this place for someone visiting Zurich for the first time.

Ideally located Zurich hotel
Great hotel, especially the location; couldn't ask for better. Quiet and peaceful, even with the massive amount of street work being done. Bravo! Comfortable room other than: 1. Can't control thermostat to room and they literally have the heat on way too high. We were not the only guests complaining. 2. Pillows were horrible, basically useless. People need neck support when sleeping.

Great little hotel
We enjoyed our stay at Altstadt. The location is great, employees are great and breakfast was great. The only reason I wont give 5 stars was the beds are low (we are old) and there is no central air. That being said we were there in September so with windows open and fans on it was comfortable.

Would not recommend
The room was way too small for a family of 4. Cramped like sardines in a tin can. The elevator stopped working on our check-out day and my family and I had to carry our suitcases down 4 flights of steps.
