We stayed 2 nights in family room which ended up being 2 bed/2ba. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of space. Area around hotel is great, easy access to historic sites, dining, art galleries and shopping. We walked from Train station at about 9pm with kids and felt safe.The walk along the river is very nice.

Three days in Zurich
The hotel was meticulously clean and located in the best possible location in Old Town Zurich. Close to everything in a safe area with only 10 minute walk to Lake Zurich. The rooms were a bit on the smaller size but the decor and comfort on the beds were excellent. The staff were especially helpful and friendly and were ready to assist on places to go and where to dine.Your staff member Paul was especially helpful with recommendations.

We liked everything the Boutique Helmhaus Hotel has to offer, from the exceptionally warm reception of the staff to the delicious breakfast buffet to the convenience of the location (to tram and trains, and to various sites along the Limmat River, enabling us to see as much of Zurich Old Town as possible in less than a day). Staying at Helmhaus made a great start to our 1-week Switzerland adventure.
