The location is great! You are right next to the old town, the waterfront and close to several streetcar stops from where you can easily get on and go to another neighborhood. It is also about a 30 minute walk or 10 minute drive to Zurich SBB main station.The room we had was spacious enough, but the bathroom was odd as noted in some other reviews. It is so small, but that the toilet was right next to the bathtub and that the bathtub wall was very high, so to get in you have to stick your leg up instead of just getting in.The other odd thing is the key system.... instead of just one key, you technically have two. You need a separate key to get into the building when it is locked at night, and then have to exchange that key for your room key when you want to enter your room. Not the smoothest system and nothing I've ever had to do for a hotel before.Oh, and sometimes at night we could hear our neighbors above us, it might have just been the people, but it sounded like people were stomping around loudly. It didn't last long and kept us up late, but I don't think the building is particularly soundproof.

Perfect 4-day stay in this charming hotel very close to the lake. The icing on the cake is free access to the Utoquai, the best place to swim in the lake. We will be back. Only one small point as there is no air conditioning but the temperature at night was fine

We were at the Hotel Seegarten for a week and felt very comfortable. Thank you to the hotel team for the pleasant stay. The short distance to the lake is also a plus. With public transport you can get everywhere easily.

The hotel was okay. I would definitely not stay here again. They did not have air conditioning and this was not disclosed or mentioned on their website. We had to sleep with the window open and were bitten by insects. It was very hot but thank God a cold front came on the second day of our stay.

Dear team Seegarten Hotel, such a beautifully located hotel and only 5 minutes walk from the beautiful Lake Zurich have you there! In a quiet street and yet so close to Lake Zurich, incredibly beautiful was our stay with you. We had room A, it was large, very very clean and every day is cleaned and lovingly prepared everything, you can not be more beautiful care in Zurich. The breakfast is arranged sugary sweet and for every personality what, the sweet service lady is a dream at breakfast and you feel immediately very comfortable and captured in the romantic flair of Zurich charm and want to stay forever. Everyone in this sweet hotel is incredibly friendly and helpful-there is a key system that is so great-that alone is why you have to visit this cute, romantic hotel again and again! Everything you need to see is within a 15-19 minute walk, Uber rides work wonderfully in Zurich and the food is great at the Lake Side Restaurant 15 minutes walk from Lake Zurich. We say thank you for 4 really wonderful days in Zurich and we will come to you again. Your family Jacob.

Wonderful single room with a good size and a big bed. Slept very well, the bedding was extremely comfortable and I felt really at home. The breakfast buffet was very good and the staff very friendly. The location is top, close to the lake and close to the city. Happy to return on another occasion.

Cozy, small and central hotel. Our room had everything we needed for one night. It was clean, the bed comfortable.Even with the window open it was not noisy to sleep. We parked in a parking garage right nearby.1 star deduction there is that there was unfortunately no scrambled or fried egg for breakfast. Also, you have to consider that it was warm for us in May in the room and without air conditioning in the room it could be really hot in the summer. The price-performance ratio is okay. But it should not cost more.

Top location, very close to Lake Zurich, yet quiet, friendly staff. A very cozy bar/breakfast room, high ceilings, plus a relatively reasonable price. I can only recommend this hotel and will gladly come again. Here you just feel comfortable and relaxed.

Very good location - one minute to the lakeside, but quiet as one block from the main road, Bürkliplatz / Altstadt and Zürichhorn are within easy walking distance from the lakeside. The hotel has a pleasant atmosphere and a very nice balance between the older building stock and careful modernization.

A cozy, very friendly hotel to feel good! The single rooms are great. Good room size and especially a big bed! Breakfast with good selection for a house of this category. Central location on Lake Zurich. Train station and center are within walking distance. Gladly again!

Top location not far from the lake. 2 min to the streetcar.Friendly reception and nice rooms. Beds are also good.Only criticism: A magnifying mirror in the bathroom with very good light would be helpful.Breakfast is also very good and there is a large selection.We like to come back.

The service was excellent, everyone was so friendly! They are only a block from the lake as well. The only negative is that they don't have AC so it was pretty hot in the room in the summer so be aware if you are traveling in the summer time! Otherwise, 10/10 spot!

We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The room was clean, the breakfast was very good. The hotel is ideally located in the street, next to where all the celebrations are taking place, so you are not in the middle of all the crowds. We would definitely stay here , whenever visiting Zurich ! 🙏☺️

Too far to walk from the train station, but easily can get there on the trolley. There is no AC and if you are staying during the summer on a weekend, it is a popular place for the young crowd to park so it is very loud on the street below with the windows open. The breakfast was very nice. The rooms are really charming other than no AC in the summer. The front desk told us there was no food at the hotel other than breakfast which wasn't true, so that was disappointing. They also weren't very helpful with info on transportation and basically had to google just like I did. An added bonus is use of the swim club, though we didn't have time to use it. This is also pretty far from the attractions. I likely would stay elsewhere if we go back to Zurich.

Lovely and charming hotel in a perfect location. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend. The only thing to be careful is that not all rooms are air conditioned - you just have to pay attention when you book if that is important to you. The room without air conditioning did have a good Dyson fan though.

The staff was amazing, especially Chrissy at the front desk and Sarah who provided breakfast service. The location was lovely, close enough to town but not in the middle of the city. The floors in my room were very noisy but not an issue.
Everyone at Hotel Seegarten was super friendly, helpful and fun. We will stay here again when we return to Zurich. Highly recommended!!!John & Kelley
We loved our stay at Seegarten! You can tell the hotel is family run with its unique touches and genuine service. We enjoyed our stay and would certainly stay again.
Have stayed at Hotel Seegarten easily over 10 times for work travel - every single time has been an absolute pleasure. As someone who spends a lot of time in hotels for work travel, I always feel like I'm coming back to a familiar homey space when I return to this hotel. The rooms are beautiful, the location is perfect, the breakfast is simple but delicious and most importantly - the staff are incredibly kind and attentive. I can't recommend this hotel enough.
One of the best Hotels I've been in Switzerland, located at the city of Zurich, it's brings to you the 50's atmosphere, and it's very comfortable and highly clean. The employees are very friendly and do care about you. The breakfast are tasteful and are so many kinds of harcuterie(smoked ones) as salami, a lot of cheese and colored eggs, baskets of different kinds of bread, jams, butters, and coffee, milk, hot chocolate. The rooms are very comfortable and clean. Type of retorno style that amused us. I recommend.
What a trouvaille in the heart of Zurich! A fabulous hotel. Small, comfortable and super friendly. The weekend special comes with tickets for the streetcar (public transport) and a chest nut (Marroni) voucher. The perfect place to spend a few days in our favorite city. Bravo to the team. We will definitely be back.
A great hotel that's very well located! Staff was kind, and breakfast was good. This hotel gave us a small town feel in the city of Zurich. Lost a star because the rooms are small, but if you're traveling as a couple or single, you won't mind the room size very much - you've got too much to see in Zurich anyway!
Seegarten is awesome, I travel to Zurich every month for business trips, I have stayed in a lot of places around this area and now I choose Seegarten every time without any doubt. Breakfast is good, always clean rooms if you'll be lucky enough you will get a room with a bathtub - to relax after a stressful day. In a room you can find all you need, starting from face napkins ending with a shoe sponge. The hotel is situated 5 minutes from the lake - a great location to have a nice walk in the evening or have a morning run. Opera, streetcar and train stop, a lot of restaurants, coop - you can get whatever you want in 5 minutes walk. A separate big thank you to the staff, they care about every small thing. This hospitality should be set as an example for a lot of the hotels in Europe. When you are coming like home and somebody is welcoming you by your name and saying they are so happy that you are staying again and again. Always a pleasure to stay with you, dear Seegarten team. All the best to you ❤️
Hotel Seegarten is just perfect in every way - all the staff are so friendly and welcoming, everything about our stay there was so lovely. The room was gorgeous, bed amazing, breakfasts were scrumptious! Thankyou to you all!
The hotel was close to the lake and the town center. The room was very clean and the beds were comfortable. Everyone was kind and helpful. The hotel is close to the train station, which is directly connected to the airport. We enjoyed our staying at Hotel Seegarten and this choice made our trip to Zurich unforgettable!!!!
What a treat! Our last accommodation for the night prior to flying out of Zurich. Words that sum up this place: CLEAN! Comfortable (very!). Hospitable. Breakfast was great as well.
Wonderful stay!Hotel is charming with great breakfast and friendly service.Location couldn't be better, half a block from the lake.Will stay there again next time I come to Zurich.
Nice stay! Breakfast included. All staff were extremely pleasant! Would definitely stay here again.
The hotel was very comfortable, both beds and pillows. Staff was friendly and helpful. We loved sitting outside at breakfast which was delicious. Very good location for getting around.
I had a great stay here. Quality- value is perfect. Rooms are very nice, everything you need is there. Beds are very comfy. Very pretty terrace to have breakfast or drink. Location is amazing- 4min from the lake in the most beautiful area of Zurich- Seefeld. But above all I must say service is super friendly and extremely helpful! Great hospitality!
Superb hotel. We stayed here for 9 comfy nights. Memory foam mattress is top of the line. First level allows for relaxing outside in the gardens and adjacent woods; with quiet and peaceful sounds of nature so many birds and scent of flowers and trees. Great location, close to everything but in the countryside. Service was impeccable. The staff is friendly and helpful. The linen is top of the line pure cotton; soft and very important for me. The room is spacious. Updated and so clean. Restaurant is very good. In my view this hotel is equivalent to a 4 star hotel in the USA. Would stay here again for sure if I come to that area. Thank you for making our stay so pleasant.
It was my first time in Zurich & I was traveling with my adult daughters. We were greeted warmly by the receptionist. The room was large & comfortable, as well as had many extras we were not expecting! A shout out to receptionist Christy who made our stay even more welcoming & relaxing 😌 I would stay here again & hope to soon!
The service was absolutely excellent. I was quite nervous about checking in, as I was traveling from the United States but the staff were exceptionally kind and patient. I stayed in this lovely room on the second floor; the room was clean, bright and I had no issues. I definitely look forward to returning in June/July for another stay.
A great small hotel with beautiful aesthetics and delicious simple breakfast. Would definitely stay again.
Perfect location near to the lake and city center. very friendly, kind and flexible staff. And the room was perfect and comfortable. I will certainly come back again. Thanks
Cozy little hotel in the middle of Zurich. Very friendly staff. Room was quite nice in size and comfortable. Amenities top notch. Our stay here was a good experience. Breakfast was good as well, nice coffee.
The location! The interiors! The amenities! Everything top notch. The only (very small) downfall was that the receptionists were sometimes not so nice.They could also think about getting a proper coat roam near the reception to store some luggage for clients instead of asking them to just leave it near the elevator. The breakfast was decent, nothing extraordinary (you cant request pancakes or omelettes additionally as you normally do in continental breakfast buffets of hotels). For these 2 reasons i reduce a star. But if I am back in Zurich (especially in Summer) I would without question stay here. Tip: the bathroom of the restaurant is amazing/spotlessly clean. In summer you have free entrance to Utoquai badi.
Small, charming hotel in a leafy and central part of Zurich, close to the lake. Friendly staff.
