Dorint Airport-Hotel Zürich
Stayed 1 night at this property. The lovely lady who checked me in was very kind & helpful, although I didn’t catch her name. The room was basic, but comfy enough for 1 person & a 1 night stay. Convenient shuttle service to/from the airport. Had dinner at the hotel’s restaurant. Food was good & service was good! Would recommend for a short stay.

Convenient option near the airport
Conveniently located near the airport, with complimentary one way shuttle service from the airport (return is 5CHF pp). Also a short walk to the tram station which can get you into the city center within 30 minutes.
Check in was easy and allowed for early check in.

Very nice hotel
I love the room it was so clean! The only thing I don’t like the lights in the hallway turned off at night. It will automatically turned off its like a sensor thing. The service was good. When we asked for roll away bed it came immediately. The buffet restaurant feels like a fine dining. The food was great. All in all we are satisfied!

Convent for overnight stay near Zürich airport.
Perfect hotel to stay in for overnight near airport. Only complaint is there were not enough pillows to use to sit at the head board. Too soft and only one per person!

Close to tram station but not much to see around the area. Hotel itself is excellent. Best hotel we stayed after staying in 3 others. Clean, great ameneties, good breakfast and helpful, courteous staff during check-in/out. The little incident at breakfast due to misunderstanding wd the attendants was a dampener, but was soon resolved.

Victoria was excellent, she made the check in process smooth and really stress free.
I would definitely recommend this hotel, and it’s only 25 mins away from the center via tram.

An excellent stopover, when leaving from the Zurich airport the next day. Very friendly staff, from shuttle service via checking desk to service in the restaurant for dinner and breakfast. The hotel has very pleasant restaurant seating outside. Although planes pass by very close you hear them only for a very short stretch. No airplane noise to be heard inside. The hotel is very well insulated.
