Best Western Hotel Spirgarten

I am currently in bed at this hotel after the worst night sleep i havd ever had. There is a church/clock tower right next to this hotel where the bells go off, every hour, half hour and quaterly until midnight. Then start again at 6am. The walls between the rooms are paper thin so we heard the conversation that our neighbours were having untill 2am, i ended up banging on the wall. This has ended up ruining our last day in zurich as we are both knackered and have a long day ahead of us. MR & Mrs Collins. less

Positive points: rooms are modern, bathroom is new and everything is clean - so the basics are given. If you book it you probably know it is not in the center, but the tram stop is right in front of the hotel and you get to the old town easily. The rooms are a bit small, but for me still ok. The problem is they are not so comfortable for various reasons: there is no place to put your toiletries in the bathroom. The TV is on the side from your bed, difficult to watch it from your bed. The mattress is too soft for me, my back hurt in the morning. I am sensitive to noise and the church bells every 15 minutes were a bit annoying. Reception friendly but when I asked if I could obtain the room 2 hours before, they wanted to charge me immediately (this has never happened to me before). less

This is not a luxury property but you get exceptional quality for the price. It is clean with cool modern design, friendly and helpful staff, free breakfast and a tram stop steps from the front door. The main train station is about a 5 minute walk from the hotel. It's an excellent base camp for exploring Zurich and the surrounding area. less

Excellent staff, spotless room, small but adequate, completely modern and renovated. Funky retro decor in the lobby and halls. Fabulous breakfast, worth the 18 francs. If you can, ask for a room away from the church side. The bells ring every quarter hour from 6 am to midnight. The staff will give you ear plugs (and apples!) if you ask!! We were driving so the parking lot was important! less

Pretty good hotel besides the fact the bell tower goes off 3-4 times an hour from 6am-12am. At 7am it rapid fire rings. The bed and pillows are super soft which is good. Wolfgang at reception is super helpful and helped my partner and I with public transport directions (there’s a tram and train station in walking distance to the hotel) less
