“Hotel Hirschen benefits from its location in Zurich's old town, a short walk from the main station. The building's architecture reflects its 13th-century origins, creating a historic atmosphere. I found the wine cellar, Weinschenke, with its extensive selection, a particularly appealing feature, and the courtyard provides a relaxing escape.”

basic stay downtown
convenient locationhelpful staffpractical portslong staircase
the location proved very convenient, offering easy access to nearby restaurants. the 24 hour reception offered peace of mind, especially with late arrivals. the staff was always ready to help. i appreciate the usb ports located on both sides of the bed, this was very practical.
a long staircase leads to checkin, it does not have an elevator for luggage, so i had to carry heavy bags up.

The tv was small. it reminded me of looking at a postage stamp from across the room. also, the breakfast was pretty bare bones. It barely rose above continental level. I expected more variety.
