Saint Georges Hotel

Nice hotel just outside the main area of Zurich. Room was a bit expensive considering it was small and had a shared bathroom. Maybe it was just Zurich prices, or the fact that Taylor Swift was in town and lots of places week booked up. Good tram system meant it was still easy to get around. Room was a bit hot at night and there was construction going on literally outside my window in the morning with the builders blaring their music in my window.

First, the room was spotless which I highly appreciate. Second, shower water was very adequate. However, I won't recommend this hotel because: 1. I arrived n checked in and the receptionist said I did not book for my young daughter, which I did, and was stated in my check in coupon. I was too tired to argue with him at 8pm after a long train from St Moritz. I believe the hotel service is not professional. And this mister kept reminding me twice I did not booked for my daughter. 2. The hotel is far and not walkable from main train station. I did not realised and walked all the way with my luggage and later realized it was 5 tram stops from train station. I should have taken a cab. 3. There is no hair dryer in room. We stayed in total 7 hotels in this trip. This was the only hotel did not provide hair dryer. Given the not very friendly of check in staff, we slept without blow dry our hair in winter. 4. No boiler in room and no hot water for drinking. I starts to doubt the hospitality of Swiss service. 5. Floor makes creaking sounds every step I made. Annoying when I need woke up at midnight and disturb my family. All in all, it reminded me feel like youth hostels I stayed 35 years ago when I traveled with a backpack. It is still a good hotel. But manage your expectations.
