Review summary

Motel One Zuerich is often praised for its modern, clean rooms, some consider them to be the perfect size for a comfortable stay. The hotel boasts a beautiful courtyard area and a 24-hour bar with an espresso bar, which guests appreciate, but note there aren't minibars in the rooms. Conveniently located near the train station, it's also within walking distance or a quick train ride to Zurich's main attractions, though a few guests missed having a desk in their room.

the staff provided helpful suggestions for activities i could do .
It woke me up around 7am. the room was small and lacked sufficient storage. Unpacking was not possible. the breakfast area was also too small, leading to overcrowding and a poorly designed flow of guests.

I find Motel One provides a standard experience. This location has a nice central courtyard, it offered a quiet break. I see they stopped using single-use plastics for toiletries. Soap is refillable. The reception area is a good size. Breakfast had local cheeses and a continental selection.
My room lacked a desk.
