A tribute to the great Freddy Mercury, this hotel had pictures all over the lobby giving me nostalgic memories of his music. Beyond that, the hotel is pretty new and in great condition. The staff are excellent and very helpful. My booking through Expedia didn’t show up on their end so due to availability they could only give me a lower tier room but made up with complementary breakfast. The next night they upgraded my room and gave me complementary breakfast (reg 25CHF). Loved the customer service overall. Would highly recommend this hotel.

Half an hour wait for check in. Room not cleaned during the stay. Definitely poor and not professional service.

The hotel is a short walk from the train station. However, to get to the hotel you have to walk up a steep hill. If we had known this we would have gotten a taxi. The lobby was very nice. It is contemporary with a lot of Freddy Mercury photos. Check in was easy although the girl did not understand much English. Then the room...we were shocked when we walked into the room. My first thought was "this is just a step up from a hostel." It is bare bones. Two twin beds, one little lamp, no dresser or closet and one outlet. (There was another outlet under the counter but I didn't feel like crawling under.) There isn't an outlet in the bathroom so to dry your hair you do it sitting on the bed. But there is no mirror in the bedroom. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable but it certainly was not what we were expecting!
