we will be in zurich in april and would like to stay in the old section.
nice place and convenient
Your favorite?
I agree. We stayed at the Bristol last summer & found it very convenient (walking distance to the train station & the Old Town.) I can't remember the room categories, but we had a standard double, & it was tiny but efficient. I think there's a superior category that might give you more room. Not luxurious, but good value...& good breakfast buffet.
www.hotel-altstadt.ch I stayed here and really liked it. They have a great little wine/coffee bar at the front.
Bristol is a nice, moderately priced hotel, but it is not in the oldtown. I suggest the Altstadt (already mentioned) or Hotel Adler.
We stayed at the Adler last summer and loved it. We have previously stayed at the Bristol and liked it too, but prefer the location of the Adler and find it has more charm.
