"We had two separate stays at this Marriott a few days apart. This was our first visit to Zurich. Both times the staff were friendly and helpful. Room was comfortable. Small bathroom. 8-10 minute walk from the train station, so very convenient."

"The location of this property is fantastic and we loved it. Sadly there is a bit of construction in the area but we still would have stayed in this area. The room was spacious and beds comfortable. We loved the air conditioner because my husband and I both run hot at night. The breakfast was wonderful and their staff even better. I highly recommend this property."

"Staff and location was great. To allow people of any culture to wear sandals with exposed feet in the dining room is disgusting. Please stop allowing this...it might acceptable in eastern culture but not in US or Europe."
