The traditional Saint Georges Hotel can be found just 300 metres from the Zürich-Wiedikon Train Station and offers you rooms with free Wi-Fi and cable TV. Within a 10-minute walk you can reach the Bahnhofstrasse shopping street.

Hotel’s location was perfect for our purposes. Old building in the middle of a quiet residence area, just renovated and very clean by keeping its genuine charakter with wooden stairs and high seilings. Reception more than friendly, customer oriented and welcoming, breakfast ok. Car parket safely in hotel’s back yard. The perfect place to stay at reasonable price for a city trip, as center/lake is in 15 to 20 min walking distance. Looking very much forward to come back.

    Really lovely, stylish little hotel. We loved staying here! The desk staff were super friendly and the room was simple, clean and really quiet. It is about a 20min walk from the centre of town but there are buses, trams and trains nearby if your legs get tired. Easy to get to the Uetilberg look-out point and trendy Industrial Quarter. Also a yoga studio on-site and a fabulous Thai restaurant that is also recommended. Good value in an expensive city!
