Highly recommend this property. We were in Zurich for one night and needed to be close to the main train station, so this property was in a perfect location. The staff were extremely helpful, and the breakfast had a great variety - a bonus that it was included in the price as well.
Extremely welcoming and helpful staff. Comfortable room close to old Zürich.

Great accommodation. They let us in our room when we arrived at 9 am for an afternoon check in. We could freshen up and get ready for a full day of sightseeing
Hotel was perfect for what we wanted. Only a short walk to Old Town and train. Great breakfast. An extra perk we didn’t count on were free passes to Kunsthaus Zurich, Switzerland’s largest art museum. It was also within walking distance.
I had a wonder stay at The Hotel St Josef. The reception staff as well as the restaurant staff were very friendly and helpful!

Highly recommend!
We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location is perfect, the room was spacious, well-designed, and very practical. The breakfast was good, but what truly stood out was the exceptionally welcoming staff at the reception. Highly recommended!
