Zürich Marriott Hotel

Zürich Marriott Hotel is a large upscale city hotel at Neumühlequai 42 in Zürich, Switzerland, with about 266 rooms. It stands on the bank of the Limmat river beside Zürich Hauptbahnhof, and the Central tram stop is directly nearby, so the hotel sits at the busiest transport hub in the country. Trains to Zürich Airport take around ten minutes, and national and international services depart from the main station a short walk away, which makes the hotel convenient for rail travellers and day trips to Lucerne, Basel, Bern or the Alps. The Old Town begins across the river, with the Niederdorf and Limmatquai reachable on foot in a few minutes, and the Swiss National Museum is also close. The hotel's size lets it offer a broad range of room types, from Single Rooms and Double Rooms to Twin Rooms and Suites, with higher floors giving views over the river and city rooftops. The hotel lists a restaurant, a bar, room service, a concierge, wifi and a fitness center, and breakfast is served on site as a buffet suited to a large number of guests. The service character is business-oriented and international, with meeting and event facilities typical of a large Marriott, and the clientele includes corporate travellers, conference delegates and tour groups. Families are also common, since the central location and room variety suit them. Rates generally run from CHF 220 to 450 per night, with higher prices during trade fairs, big sporting events and the December season. For visitors who value convenience over atmosphere, the location is hard to beat, though the area around the station is busy and less quiet at night than residential districts such as Enge.
