It's no surprise the Widder Hotel is Zurich's #1 hotel on TA. The hotel is ideally suited and close to the main shopping area and bars and restaurants in the old town and across the river. We were privileged to receive a complementary upgrade to a Heritage Suite (210) which was an amazing room ... a mix of modern chique with every amenity alongside a rustic traditional feel with perfect lighting and aged wooden panelled walls and storage areas. The owners / managers have been able to think of and provide everything their discerning guests require and the team, including reception, waiting and housekeeping are all extremely friendly, genuinely personable and excel in customer service. A regularly re-filled mini bar (included in our room rate) was very welcome after an evening out. Breakfast was traditional Swiss, served in a relaxing and serene dining area. Varied choices of food and all of the best quality. Stand out moments (albeit minor, but recalled) were when upon our second visit for breakfast the staff here remembered our suite number and our hot drink preferences. Never had that before. Equally, every time we returned to the hotel, after a day time shop / stroll around Zurich or after our evenings out, we were always welcomed back and greeted by name by the reception team. The team made recommendations on trips out and bars and restaurants and were always keen to receive our feedback post-visit. A perfect stay in Zurich, complemented by the Widder and the amazing team here. We look forward to a return visit and have already recommended the Widder to friends. The Widder has truly set the bar!
