Great place for a family. The room was clear and large. The staff was friendly. The railway next to the hotel, so the noise is too loud when you opened the window.

Good and comfortable for a business trip
Great hotel for a 2 night business trip. Close to the train station for easy travel requirements to and from the airport. Room was good, breakfast choice was good. The gym is next door and is very well equipped, however it is an additional ~20CHF if you don't have one of the premium rooms.
