Bahnhof Glattbrugg Hotel Zurich

classic and clean and nice

We had a large room with kitchen facilities. The hotel has a free parking. The breakfast is basic. Considering the price, it is a very good choice especially if you have a car. If not, it is close to a train station.

For this money it was more then expected

This hotel has to be the cheapest rate in Zurich. I paid only $37.29 per night! The location is 1/2 hour away from the center of Zurich by trolly car. Trollies run every 7 minutes so it is easy and relatively quick to get to the center of Zurich. Also this hotel is only about 8 minutes by trolly from the airport. It is easy to find as it is on a main street and only a 1 1/2 block walk from the trolly station. The rooms are small and simple but clean. The food in the restaurant is good. The staff was ok, but nothing great.

The room was OK for our requirements. However the light switch on entering the room didn't operate any lights in the room, we had to find and plug in the only light available which was at the far side of a dark room. On arrival the landing lights outside the room were not working and when rectified only one bulb worked. No lights were working in the shared bathroom and again when rectified only one bulb worked. We were disappointed not to have en suite facilities as this was not made clear when making the booking but this was not the end of the world until we saw the state of the shared bathroom which was appalling. It obviously had not been cleaned for a long time and was filthy (floor and shower cubicle, the latter was falling apart). We have actually stayed at the Bahnhof before on a similar basis and had a room with en suite facilities which was fine and there were no problems but based on this experience we will not be staying at the Bahnhof again.

Everything you would expect from a Swiss hotel.
