This hotel ticked all my boxes. It was EXTREMELY clean and well maintained, the rooms were beautiful (in a nice old building that has character, but beautifully modernized rooms with spotless bathrooms, dark wood floors, great matresses, comfy duvets etc etc). The windows were thick so I had no problems with noise (it's on a side steet anyway). The reception... more

We were there for two nights. The location was excellent, within a walking distance for almost everything. Tram was 1min walk. Room could have been bigger, because the hotel wasn't the cheapest one, but service and breakfast were excellent. more

I absolutely love the Helmhaus hotel: The hotel is small (boutique style), but offers everything that a leisure as well as a business traveller is looking for: outstanding personalised service, the friendliest hotel staff, immaculate, newly furbished rooms, delicious and healthy breakfast buffet and this all at the most central location in Zurich right in the old town and close... more

We stayed at the Helmhaus from 30th Dec to 1st Jan as we were there for the New Years Eve party. The hotel is easy to find and is 5-8 mins walk from Stadelhofen station (4 stops from the Airport). The Airport train station is located in the airport and is very easy to find. It cost 6.60 CHF on... more

I find Zurich better hotel destination than Geneva, but still hard. The city is generally expensive in my opinion, and I am always looking for hotels that offer value, but for me this isn’t it. Staff seem to be great though. There are no major problem issues but the place is very bare and a long way from luxurious. One... more

The location of this hotel is excellent. I spent a week in Zurich and did not see a better location during my stay. Not only is it beside the sights, shops and tram, but it is also handy for practical places too. You are just a few minutes walk from Bellevue, where there is a pharmacy that opens 7am-11pm daily,... more

We spent one night at the Helmhaus in Zurich, after spending 2 nights at the Marriott in Zurich. Comparing the two, it was a bit of a shock when we first entered our room, but we quickly warmed up to it. It is older, but quaint. The room was immaculately clean and larger than most we've stayed in in Europe.... more

For a 3 star hotel (at least that's what I thought I booked) it was good value for money. Location-wise I could not have asked for any better- close to the river, sights and great dining. Yes the rooms were quite small and the bathroom also small but we coped. I guess it's not a place that you would stay... more

This is one of the few times I disagree with the majority of reviewers on Trip Advisor. Ok we were in Zurich and it is an expensive city - I am well aware of that. However, I don’t believe we got value for money here. Yes, it is within walking distance of most things you want to see, the tram... more
