Hotel Tivoli

we had booked a room with a double bed, but when we got there they gave us a twin bed, and when we showed our booking, the reception said that they don't have such rooms at all, lying is really not nice. the whole hotel and rooms are super small, no fridge in the rooms, bathroom is 100 years old with white plastic curtain. and they are not that helpful or friendly. Really not happy with such high prices that you can't book anything decent in Switzerland. the only plus was the breakfast and parking in front of their door.

I've just got home post a 5 day stay at the Tivoli for a work trip. What a little jem of a find. Chosen as 4 minutes walk from my office and didn't want to bother with other more executive hotels a tram ride away. I arrived late Sunday evening, no options for dinner as most restaurants closed Sunday night. The receptionist was very kind and gave me some takeaway options and I ordered a pizza. She set me a place for dinner in the reception and I had a glass of wine before bed. Perfect. Too note I'm hearing impaired and was accommodated with a room with an emergency exit. 4 minute walk to a station to take you to Zurich HB. Perfect. OK so a single bed with just a shower room. But cosy, warm, clean and the staff all amazing. Breakfast was delicious. See you you in 2 weeks when I return.

FINAL SCORE 1-10: 6/10 RATIO QUALITY/PRICE 1-10: 7/10 WOULD I SUGGEST THIS HOTEL (Y/N): Y HOTEL STRUCTURE: Small hotel. Small hall and desk and quite clean. CLEANLINESS: General overview was fine, nothing special to say STAFF: Met a lady who was kind and calm, got my check in and invoice quite quickly CHECK IN AND CHECK OUT: 10 min check and just left the key to a person in the morning at the breakfast area for my check out since nobody at the desk HALL: Small, clean, nothing special to say. HOTEL LOCATION: 300 away from Schlieren railway station and 7 km away from Zurich city centre. SUPERMARKETS NEAR HOTEL: Several ones near the hotel ROOM EVALUATION Room size: standard size for Swiss criteria, enough big Cleanliness: That is a key topic for me to give a score to an hotel. Room was very clean, simple but well organized as spaces. Bed: Large one, quite comfortable, king size Pillows: Available both soft and hard pillows. Bathroom: Very clean, good shower, provided with soaps and hair products Slippers: Not provided Bathrobe: Not provided Soaps/Cosmetics: Provided Hairdryer: Provided Unpleasant smells: No unpleasant smells Soundproofing: Poor, I got a room ground floor in front of hotel parking WIFI: Free of charge in the room as well in the hotel. Connection speed was average and stable. I did not have any problem to connect all my devices. TV: Good one, Samsung last generation. Air conditioning/heating system: Working well, did not have any problem. Wardrobe: very small one but enough for 1 person and small luggage Mini-bar: No mini-bar Key/Card: Key working well, no problem opening the door FACILITIES OF MY INTEREST Parking: Hotel does provide this service but I did not use it Shuttle to Airport service: Hotel does not provide this service. Gym/SPA: No gym or SPA BREAKFAST: I did not use it since, in Switzerland better to pay for what you eat GREEN ASPECTS: I did not notice anything. COVID PROCEDURES: Just a glass at the desk. PROBLEMS AND DISSERVICES: Nothing special to notice. It is a basic solution, good ones if you work in Schlieren area or you want to stay close to Zurich getting more affordable prices since prices in Zurich area are quite high for hotels. If do not have too much expectations and you look for an hotel where to sleep that is clean and not too much expensive this is a good compromise.

We stayed here almost two weeks during a wedding and later to tour Zurich and Switzerland. The hotel is very close to the tram that goes into Zurich main plaza. It is also very close to the train station just a few stops from the Zurich main station. The hotel staff was very helpful. They assigned the largest (business guest) rooms since we stayed a long time. They stored our bags for a few days. The restaurant staff remembered our coffee/tea orders. The breakfast is small but tasty fresh food. Schlieren had several nice restaurants and grocery stores within a few blocks. We also took some nice hikes in the forest above the town.

Wir waren als Teil einer Hochzeitsgesellschaft mit der Familie für eine Übernachtung im Hotel Tivoli. Sehr freundliches Personal, die Zimmer sehr sauber und zweckmässig eingerichtet. Auch das Frühstück war top. Würde das Hotel ohne Probleme weiterempfehlen.
