Best Hotels near Drachenhöhle, Kusnacht

Where can I start? Firstly the hotel advertises that there is parking available, please we aware that unless you’re going to leave your car in a space up the road (not designated for the accommodation), then there is NOT parking available in the sense you’d expect it to be. Any space that appears to be on site has signs about not leaving the car with threats of towing your car. We ended up parking in the city centre for 40CHF a night. We did expect cheap and cheerful but this was not cheerful. When we went in, the apartment didn’t appear very clean, and on opening the fridge door there was leftover food in there (including fish, which my partner has an anaphylactic allergy too, although that part isn’t their fault, it just added insult). The kitchen cleaning sponge and towels were dirty. The hairdryer was broken and dangerous to use. The shower screen was broken. The toilet brush had hair left on it. The curtains were stained. There were more issues but if I mentioned them I’d just be sounding petty. Finally, the king size bed only had a single sheet. We sent an email and in all fairness they did remove the leftover food, replace the towel, bin the dirty sponge, “fix” the shower screen (it was a bodge job and will break again soon im sure), and replace the shower head (something we’d not complained about?!) When looking for somewhere to stay in Zurich we narrowed our search down by looking for somewhere with parking. We thought the cheaper price would be as it was out of the city centre, and relatively basic, not dirty. I would recommend you avoid this, or only book if you have very low expectations.

The hotel is near the motorway and the bus (towards) is a time relatively fast in the city. Parking is sufficiently available on the left and right side of the hotel (to my mind). The lobby is relatively small but also shares the rooms with the ”Boom” restaurant, where breakfast can be taken. Although the rooms are easily furnished, But sufficiently large and very clean. Wi-Fi is amazingly fast for a hotel of this class. Although there is no air conditioning, but when you take the rooms with view to the street / tanker, it is not too hot in the summer. Also, you shouldn't take the top floor. Rooms at the end of the gang are quieter. In the (rapid) TV you can find enough channels for any taste. There is a small work area in the rooms with some sticks and room for notebook and a few documents. The staff at the reception is friendly, helpful and can provide further information. You can also buy tickets for the public transportation. Breakfast is possible from about 5:30 (under the week). I felt the room as relatively quiet. Even from the street, there was little more of it later evening, so I could sleep wonderfully with open window. From the price-performance ratio, the hotel - right in the Zürich room - is very cheap.

Good value in a great location. We walked from the train station. Enjoyed an excellent breakfast while watching pedestrians and cyclists making their way to work and school. The beds were comfortable, the shower was hot and strong. The young man who checked us in was 5 star. Definitely recommend.

The lakeside hotel in Switzerland offer breathtaking views and a serene atmosphere. One can expect a combination of natural beauty, comfortable accommodations, and excellent hospitality. Guests can savor delicious cuisine and experience the warmth of Swiss hospitality. With Switzerland's efficient transportation network, it's also easy to explore nearby attractions and towns from these lakeside locations.

I must say I am very satisfied with this accommodation. There’s a free shuttle van to the hotel upon arrival (just exit Arrival Door 2 and turn left, find a digital board and see the timing of each shuttle). Check-in was smooth and front desk staff was accommodating. The room has all the basic necessities except for a fridge (which is not a problem for me). The location is not far from the airport and near (around 10 minutes leisure walk) to Rumlang Train Station to connect to Zurich HB.

We ended up staying here unexpectedly a few weeks ago after an unfortunate circumstance at a different Zurich Sorrell. Happily, we were in good hands and the room was extremely large and included a balcony. Seefeld is not in the center - and yet it is blocks away. Trams 2 and 4 or a five minute walk bring you to Stadelhofen. The staff was lovely and let us leave our luggage anticipating we could probably check in a tad early as they cleaned the room. Coffee is in the room and the breakfast provided had many offerings. The waitstaff were sweet and happy. We had room 507 which I recommend for being on the top floor. It has air conditioning which is nice in Zurich when it’s hot. The bed was comfortable and the pillows are fabulous. I would have liked hair conditioner. It’s a good value and a great location. If you read my other Sorrell hotel review you will see how I ended up in Seefeld. Disregard the reply from the manager. It’s in bad faith and he did not find us a room. We had the first night booked weeks before. What happened is we made a second booking (all through a travel agent) and it was a mix up on room size). Interesting the response blames the guest (again!) but happily this Sorrell does not seem to be connected except in name so perhaps it’s a franchise. In fact, the manager we encountered at Sorrell St Peter counseled us not to stay in seefeld at the Sorrell. We were glad we paid no attention.

Beautiful lake front hotel and friendly staff. Lovely view from the balconies. Rooms are clean, well-appointed and spacious. Parking is very convenience. Highly recommended, will be back for sure .

I stayed in a pod after arriving back on a late flight, instead of driving home at midnight. The pod was nice, very comfortable. The temperature was marginally too warm for me however, and you can't change the settings. That's where the positive experience ended. My phone charging port didn't work - that's fine - I can overlook that, but it's not ideal I was woken at 4.30am by people getting up and ready for the early morning flights. They were crashing and banging around with the doors and fiddling around with their luggage. Ultimately I couldn't get back to sleep because of the continued crashing and banging and ultimately only got 3.45 hrs sleep (I know this because my fitness tracker tells me so). So it was completely pointless staying - I would have got a better night's sleep at home with my 3 year old and 10 month old in the room next door. I believe the hotel's model doesn't work for the following reasons: 1) Each pod has a door with a very noisy latch. The latch doesn't have to be noisy if people are considerate, but a lot of people aren't considerate at the best of times, let alone at 4am in the morning when getting up for an early flight. It's all well and good to have lots of signs saying ”shh!” On the walls, but most people don't see it, or at least it doesn't sink in. I stayed in a capsule hotel on Japan that has roller blinds instead of doors, which are much quieter 2) people are allowed to bring their luggage into the sleeping space. This invites people to fiddle around with their luggage, which disturbs others from their sleep. Again, in the pod hotel in Japan, people must lock their luggage in lockers in the changing rooms, and are not allowed to take anything into the sleeping space - it works much better 3) the hotel has plenty of separate rooms, with a number of pods in each. Why not allocate guests to rooms by their time of arrival and departure, so that late arrivers don't disturb early departures, and vice versa? Overall, if the above 3 things are fixed, I'd probably stay again, but otherwise, definitely not

Swiss budget motels are better than most American 3+ star hotels. Tram is seconds from hotel. Tram cost 2.70 Swiss Franc one-way (May 2023). Less than 20 minutes from Lake Zurich. Room was good enough size for one short night before the airport. Laundry on-site. Food/drink vending machine in lobby.
