ibis budget Zurich City West 1 star

If you're travelling to Zurich on a budget and don't mind smaller rooms with the shower next to the bed and a non-lockable toilet, this one is a good choice. The rooms are clean. Interior is minimal, don't expect a drawer or some place to hide your suitcase, other than underneath the bed. You can get power adapters and hairdryers at the reception for a small deposit. Located within 5 walking minutes from the Hardbrücke Train Station it's very easy to reach with public transport especially when coming from the airport. (Train ticket is less than 7 CHF) The breakfast selection is a bit less than usual, but everything is "fresh" (as in freshly opened can). It's surrounded by a variety of reasonably good restaurants, be it Sushi, Meat, Italian or Burgers. If you don't mind a Mensa-like place the nearby Technopark has good Lunch options for reasonable prices on week days.

Easy access to public transport. All staff are very friendly. Breakfast is superb. Hotel is very clean.

Value for money

All staff were very friendly and helpful, convenient location to the town centre and train station.

Everything was good. Please, put locker in the toilet.

Picked this because it was right next to my business.

All of my needs were met.

Hotel is very clean, breakfast good for the price, friendly staff. Location is fine, good fast links to the city centre and airport I will definitely stay again

Reception was very good Room OK Breakfast Bad Food options poor

Very bad, noisy at night,

Alles super!

It is somehow like a mobilehome

The room looks good and clean, but a little bit small. The waiters at the front desk are quite nice, especially the young and funny guy, but I forget his name. He helps me make some changes and also made nice invoice for me. Thanks very much. It's a good trip.

The hotel is easy to find; the beds are clean and comfortable; but the shower is not very convenient and there is no place for cloth.

I was not at all ready for the hostel type accommodation in the Ibis Budget, this is not a hotel, its a hostel at hotel prices and carrying a hotel brand. In the loo, the toilet is too high, your feet do not touch the ground when using the loo, I have noticed this is listed as a complaint by many users of the hotel, and I note the poor quality of the paint on the toilet walls also, in addition to the poor quality door, with no lock, overall a very poor loo for a hotel room. I was also very unimpressed with the parking in the hotel, not only was the cost very high for a budget hotel, the spaces were very tight and awkward to get into, and I met many hotel users who said the same. We planned only one night in the hotel, and had to extend, and were charged a little more for the second night but when we came down for breakfast, were told breakfast was not included, even though requested when I booked in, and the response I received from the reception was "Go And Get Your Receipt" when we mentioned this to reception. I was so insulted, I left the hotel immediately, should breakfast not have been included by error, I would gladly have paid, but, the attitude of the staff to myself and my colleague was hostile and rude, so we left immediately, and will not ever be back. I paid for myself and a colleague for the two day stay, and I and my employees spend over 100 nights away yearly, but will never ever again stay in an IBIS unless we have no choice, quite simply you do not treat your customers well should there be a problem, I was appalled at how poor the stay was in Zurich of all places. Some room furniture would be a recommendation I would make, somewhere to put your bags, nothing more, I appreciate the esthetic of a budget hotel, but in my view, the room demanded a price of half what was paid as it is not a hotel space, its a hostel, and I will never stay again. I was not expecting such a poor space and should I have arrived earlier, I would not have stayed and found another room. One last complaint, you charged industry standard rates for breakfast, and they was only one hot/cooked option, Eggs, no bacon or sausage, although I would not have eaten them, it was noticed by my colleague how poor the selection was, and lets face it, when you charge for breakfast, especially the same as other hotels, you should offer what they offer. Overall, very unhappy with the stay, poor quality, cheap rooms, with no class and a plastic vinyl wrapped foyer, very poor quality to carry a hotel Brands name. Cheap Cheap Cheap.
