The location is a little out of the way but the old part of the city is easily accessible via a short taxi/Uber trip or in about 20 minutes on one of the bikes you can borrow for free. Lime also seems to have scooters and bicycles available close by all the time. I really enjoyed having a cocktail or two on the patio. You have to order at the bar but they are very good at bringing it out to you. The negronis and amaretto sours are excellent!
This is obviously a high trust country because the hotel room doors had no extra locks and and you really had to close them firmly to make sure they locked. It was a little disconcerting at first.

• Stunning view and beautifully designed room interior. • Polite and friendly staff. • Snacks and drinks available for purchase at the hotel. • High-quality cleaning and overall cleanliness. • Pleasant lighting in the room. • Comfortable bed. • Coffee machine with plenty of capsules. • Towels were changed daily. • Nice toiletries provided. • Plenty of storage space. • Two desks, which is very convenient. • Complimentary bottled water was a nice touch.
• A bit far from the city center, but close to public transport. • The room lacked a fridge for keeping drinks cold.

Neighbourhood is nice and quiet in a business park and residential district. The room was well designed, clean and comfortable, even though it was small. Good value for money. The hotel has a nice gym and private lounge for residents.
Although technically in the central zone, it is not close to the city centre. The hotel is a 5 min walk from the nearest Tram stop, and it takes 20 minutes to get to the Zurich Station area via the tram. The train is faster, but the train station is a good 15min hike away. Not a great location for tourists who want to be in the heart of the action. Hardly any restaurants or amenities in the immediate vicinity of the hotel.

The hotel's location is in the immediate vicinity of warehouses, but the district is quiet. Nearby are two bus stops and one tram stop. A little further is also the Zurich Altstetten train station. The hotel itself is quiet, neat and comfortable. The room was cleaned daily. A big plus is the panoramic window over the city and a sun blind across the entire width of the window.
A major inconvenience, especially in the summer, is the lack of air conditioning throughout the building. This is compensated by the ability to open the poramic window to 1/4 of its width.

The room had a great view of a part of the city. Functional yet nicely decorated with a minimal apporach. Very comfy bed and pillows water pressure was excellent in the shower The coffee machine inside the room with complimentary coffee was a nice touch.
The toilet was right next to the bed.... The breakfast could have had a bit more variety. Common practice that they advised me to pay 24chf for indoor parking while there were plenty of white line places about 5 min walk from the hotel For two people the small closet would have been too small maybe

Though this hotel is a little further away from the centre of Zurich, it's worth the 10/15 minute tram ride. We were on the 10th floor in a Loft and the design is excellent, minimal, clean and well thought out. The room was comfortable and well sized, lots of storage and a Nespresso machine which was a nice touch. It was my partners birthday so I spoke with the hotel beforehand to ask them to decorate the room, which they did with balloons and a birthday banner for 20CHF. Check-in staff were very friendly and helpful. Staying here made our stay in Zurich extra special.
There was a silverfish in our room one morning which wasn't great. The cleanliness of the room wasn't an issue, but I have a read a few reviews that mention seeing a silverfish, so it may be a building issue?

I really like that the Hotel was clean and easy to get to. It was hard to travel there in the evenings as there was quite a lot of roadworks which didn't affect the noise but meant it was hard to wheel suitcases. The room was very comfy and the staff were super friendly. I also was able to check-in early at no additional cost. The free bikes also were a great bonus as I was able to explore the city a lot more quickly.
What I found strange was that the hotel had no bar/restaurant open on a Saturday. I would understand if it was a Sunday but meant I had to leave the hotel to find food. This was fine as I wanted to explore Zürich and get the travelcard but I had hoped to lunch in the hotel after having an early morning start. Again, this is probably my own fault for not researching more prior to my arrival to the hotel, so I can't fault the hotel for this...I just found it strange.

The hotel has a business industrial style. Check in fast and easy. The staff is very polite. A lot of amenities inside the room. Wi-fi works properly. Has a mini-market 3 minutes away from the Hotel and it's only 20 min from the city centre by Tram Ligne 2. It's a good opportunity to save money because hotels near tourist places cost so much more.
Everything is really good, no complaints. However, if you book the same room I stayed (Urban Design) for 2 people, just bear in mind that there are no walls between the shower and the room itself. Might be the case to book another category if you are not that close to the person you are sharing the room with.

Our stay in Placid Hotel and its facilities are very good. The rooms have everything you need and are modern. you have huge windows (that can be opened) with a nice view. Also the lounge area with a nice seating area, water and tee is wonderful, as well as the small gym. With public transport you have easy access to the city (although we always needed +/- 30min to our destinations). Can highly recommend this hotel.
The only thing that bothered us a bit was that the room cleaning came very late in the day. I believe it was 5:00 PM when we wanted to rest for a bit, and then the room service knocked to clean. It would be better if this happened in the morning or around noon.

Easy access to the garage incl. e-charging for my car; very friendly staff 24/7; top breakfast buffet; easy reachable by public transport (tram 2 only 350m form the hotel); quiet and relaxed atmosphere/area; tipp: if you want to let fresh air into your room you need/can open the window at any level of the hotel by pressing a small button in the window frame
Missing cupboard requires living out of your suitcase; towel rack too low positioned: wet towels land on the floor
