My stay at the Hotel Rigihof in Zurich had its ups and downs. The rooms were modern and clean, which I appreciated, but the check-in experience was a bit chaotic and the surrounding area felt lifeless. Overall, if you get a good rate, it's definitely worth considering, especially for a short visit.

I had a mix of experiences during my stay. The location is fantastic, just a quick tram ride from the main station, making it easy to explore the city. While the staff was friendly, I encountered issues with my room type and the noise from the surrounding area could be bothersome. Overall, the hotel offers good amenities and was reasonably priced, but there's room for improvement in communication about room features and noise management.
