Updated, very clean, quiet, and spacious hotel with walking distance to restaurants and grocery store. The staff was welcoming and helpful. I booked this hotel as a stop-over while touring Europe and I would stay here again. Thank you for making our vacation stay very restful.

Good and comfortable for a business trip
Great hotel for a 2 night business trip. Close to the train station for easy travel requirements to and from the airport. Room was good, breakfast choice was good. The gym is next door and is very well equipped, however it is an additional ~20CHF if you don't have one of the premium rooms.

Great place for a family.
The room was clear and large.
The staff was friendly.
The railway next to the hotel, so the noise is too loud when you opened the window.

Recommended for a stay in Winterthur.
Very good hotel in Winterthur: very kind and helpful staff. The room I stayed in was very spacious and clean, with a sober and modern decor. Breakfast was also very varied and pretty good. The location is also good, being few minutes walking from Winterthur station.
Recommended!

Die Bahn hat uns tatsächlich nachts nicht gestört, da die Fenster mehrfach verglast sind ;-) und das Bett sehr bequem ist. Morgens gab es noch ein gutes Frühstück… wirklich alles prima. Auch im Zimmer ein Willkommens-Wasser und die Möglichkeit, Kaffee oder Tee zuzubereiten. Ein sehr schöner Aufenthalt und man ist schnell zu Fuß in der Stadt.

Alles soweit bestens. Ich hatte ein Zimmer auf der Gebäuderückseite auf die Geleise hinaus. Der Zugverkehr ist doch recht laut und störend, wahrscheinlich sind Zimmer auf der Vorderseite angenehmer.

Zimmer war sehr groß und geräumig. Frühstücksbuffet eher mittelmäßig und für ein 4 Sterne Hotel eher etwas enttäuschend. Spa und Fitness ist nur in den höheren Zimmerkategorien inkludiert. Dies ist auf der Expedia Buchungsseite nicht ersichtlich!
