Engi Holidays from AU$2,030

A basic, no-frills hotel offering the essentials without extras like a mini fridge or coffee/tea-making facilities. The bed was a little on the hard side, but the room was clean and functional. The real highlight is the location—within easy walking distance to the charming old town, making it a convenient base for exploring the area.

The hotel towels in our room look worn and very thin. The bath towels are fairly small, about 2/3 the size of the regular towel size. Some of the towels are gray/off white instead of white. The AC unit blows air directly to the left side of the bed which made me sneeze badly. It also makes noises like dropping sand to metal, waking us up a couple of times during the night.

The shower leaked terribly. I stayed a week. I asked the staff to repair it. They did not. Also there is no a/c. I slept with my window open and it was fine. But I really couldn’t use the room comfortably in the afternoon as the windows faced west.

It’s a great hotel. I’m definitely going to use this hotel on my next trip

Very European style hotel. Not much on the amenity side and no air conditioning. They have done what they can with an older building to make it comfortable. Staff is great very professional. My only negative comment is with Zurich being a major business and tourist hub I would like to have had breakfast available to me earlier than 7 am. Most hotels I have stayed in offer a 6 am start time. Other than that it was a pleasant stay.
