We really enjoyed our stay. Location is fantastic. Staff were friendly and helpful. Check-in was easy. The room was very clean. My only suggestions would be to provide some drawer space (for example, a working night table rather than the decorative one) and have firmer pillows available.

Room is but small for American standards. All comforts in the hotel and near by.

We had a one night stay at the Swiss Chocolate at it was lovely. Such a fun quirky hotel, with an ample supply of chocolate in the fountain. My room was a single room with a lofted layout, which i needed to be careful at night during any descents to the bathroom. The room was very clean and had the amenities i needed to be comfortable.

If you are looking to be where young and hip folks are and where different eateries are, this is the place for you! The vibe of the hotel is very cool and I liked that there was a reasonable priced breakfast available in the morning. Zurich is expensive, but this cute hotel is not--big thanks!

The welcome I got at the Reception was particularly exceptional. Stayed there the second time, and discovered that it used to be a cinema theatre! The hall's still there, being used as the luggage storage... Great place and the chocolate fountain and the chocolate-themed design are special features :)

Great location for seeing Zurich. Room was comfortable and clean, cute small hotel with chocolate theme. Recommended

2-night trip

10/10

We were impressed with this newer property having good soundproofing with the windows and blackout curtains. The decor is charming and fun. The room we had was tight, no good place to layout our luggage. The feather pillows are not ideal. If we were staying longer I would have paid for an upgraded room with more space. The room temperature was fine for the chilly weather.

Hotel is fine, not great, not bad. Nice and close to the main train station, used it as a last stop before leaving Switzerland. Wouldn't be returning but also didn't feel like it was horrible.
