ibis budget Zurich City West
Simple hotel about 10 minutes from old town. One tram ride away so easy to get to. Not a ton to do around the hotel so late night dinner was tough. Didn’t like the shower set up - the shower had no door so there was no privacy for showering and that’s tough with a family. Otherwise good hotel.
