Four-star hotel on Schaffhauserstrasse in the Unterstrass district north of the main station.
Hotel Krone Unterstrass is a four-star hotel at Schaffhauserstrasse 1, in the Unterstrass district of Zürich, Switzerland, north of the main station. Unterstrass is a largely residential quarter on the slopes below the Zürichberg, and the hotel offers a quieter, more local setting than the central Bahnhofstrasse area while still being well connected. Trams run along Schaffhauserstrasse and into the city centre, and the main station is reachable in a few minutes by public transport. The nearby Zürich Zoo and the Zürichberg woodland, popular for walks, lie within reach of the district, and the Limmat and the Old Town can be reached by a short tram ride. Accommodation falls in the mid-range category, with Single Rooms, Double Rooms, Twin Rooms and Suites, and listed nightly rates of roughly CHF 180 to CHF 320. Listed amenities include wifi, available breakfast, a bar and a restaurant, so guests can eat on site after a day of sightseeing. The price level is lower than in the city core, making the hotel a sensible option for visitors who value comfort and local atmosphere over a prime tourist address. Families, business visitors and leisure travellers are all typical guests, and the neighbourhood offers bakeries, small restaurants and everyday shops that give a more genuine impression of daily life in Zürich. Because the hotel stands on a through road, rooms facing the street may carry some traffic noise, and a quieter room can be requested at booking. Peak demand falls around trade fairs, the summer holidays and the Christmas period, and reserving early helps secure the best rates. Overall, the property is a practical, good-value base for exploring Zürich and its surroundings.
