“Spirgarten strikes me as a practical choice in Zurich-Altstetten, particularly for business travelers needing meeting facilities, or families drawn to the nearby zoo and swimming pool. The hotel's modern style and brasserie featuring local beers give it a relaxed, Swiss feel. Its location near tram lines makes getting around the city quite simple, though the church bells might take some getting used to.”
