Erinomainen sijainti keskellä vanhaa kaupunkia ja muutaman minuutin kävelymatkan päässä keskusrautatieasemalta. Siisti huone, jossa jääkaappi ja hyvin toimiva ilmastointi. Erittäin ystävällinen henkilökunta. Tosi hyvä aamupala. Vahva suositus! Menisimme uudestaan!

8 Jul 2022 by Monet terveiset ***Hotel Alexander Laura ja koko t

Rakas Auli Kiitos, että otit aikaa antaa meille positiivista palautetta vierailustasi Hotel Alexanderissa. Isäntinä, joilla on sydän, olemme sitoutuneet kolmeen tärkeimpään arvoon: Ystävällisyys, laatu ja hyvinvointi. Kehut huoneista, sijainnista ja herkullisesta aamiaisesta tekevät meille hyvää, mutta niin suuri kehu henkilökunnalle on kaikkein hienoin tunnustus, ja se motivoi meitä jatkamaan johdonmukaisesti tällä tiellä. Toivomme, että Zürich jää sinulle positiiviseksi muistoksi, ja odotamme innolla, että saamme toivottaa sinut tervetulleeksi vieraaksemme uudelleen.

Beaucoup de bruit nocturne et problème de parking. Il y a un parking de l’hôtel, mais pour le savoir, il faut ce rendre forcément à la réception. Résultat, j’ai pris une amende parce que l’accès au parking public est interdit à partir de 20h (nachtverboten) que malheureusement je n’avais pas vu toute de suite. Et de toute façon, pas possible de parquer ailleurs ! A la fin, très cher l’hôtel!

Chers Anonymes Merci beaucoup pour votre séjour à l'hôtel Alexander à Zurich et pour le temps que vous avez pris pour un bref retour d'information. Les places de parking à Zurich sont en fait très limitées. Pour cette raison, vous pouvez réserver des places de parking supplémentaires chez nous. En raison de notre situation dans la vieille ville, entourée de petites ruelles romantiques, nous sommes heureux d'accompagner nos hôtes jusqu'au parking, car il s'est avéré très utile, surtout lorsque l'on se gare dans la vieille ville pour la première fois. Si vous avez eu une mauvaise expérience avec les parkings publics, en particulier ceux situés près de l'église, veuillez nous contacter à nouveau, car nous pourrions peut-être vous aider en tant qu'hôtel. Nous vous souhaitons bonne chance d'ici là. Meilleures salutations de Zurich, votre Team-Alexander
