Perfect Location in Zurich!
Hotel Alexander is the most perfect hotel for a short stay in Zurich. Less than 10 mins walk from the main train station and right in the heart of the old town so perfect for exploring if you have limited time in Zurich as part of a larger trip. Super friendly and helpful staff. I was worried this might be a bit basic from the photos on the booking site, but needn't have worried, it was extremely clean, comfortable and a perfect base. Best pillow I had on the whole trip and also the best scrambled eggs I had all trip! Would definitely recommend and will definately come back again next time I'm in Zurich. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Parking is an adventure. Expecting to find parking at the hotel, I circled the block a few times trying to figure out what I was overlooking. I finally found somewhere to park and walk to the hotel. The staff was very nice, but I was instructed to pull in front of the hotel to unload our bags, then someone would show us where to park. The lady who rode with me and took me to the garage with the elevator I had to drive into was very nice. The man who took me back to get my car at the end of my stay was not particularly friendly, nor was he patient as I tried to drive a rental car I wasn’t exceedingly familiar with, into an elevator that felt like it barely fit. The hotel itself was nice though and in a good location.
