The guesthouse is at a prime location, just a 3-minute walk from the train station (Zurich HBF), and it is also conveniently near several bus stations. The reception is helpful and located just across the street, offering 24-hour service via WhatsApp. The staff was friendly and always available to assist with any questions or requests.
We booked a double room, which was clean and well-maintained. Although we didn't opt for breakfast, the guesthouse provided complimentary drinks in the shared lobby. There are several supermarkets and food options nearby, making it easy to find meals.
Overall, we had a wonderful experience at the guesthouse and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a convenient place to stay.
Excellent location just a 3-minute walk from the main train station and close to the shopping street. The room with a clean, spacious, and beautifully designed room that’s well-lit, plus great-smelling toiletries, convenient amenities like wireless charging. The hotel nearby have COOP supermarket and McDonald's. The hotel even has a cinema on the first floor with daily 8 PM showings. Overall a 5-star stay, though the hallway carpet should use vacuum to clean up.

Clean and safe room although a bit smallish it’s worth the budget. Stayed in ibis a few years back. Still ibis do not disappoint. Next time will get proper ibis with all the amenities since we are traveling as a family. Ibis budget is good enough for adults. We would like to have a small fridge and a kettle as basic.

The hostel is located a short walk away from the train station. I overpaid for my train ticket at the airport, you can get a simple 60min ticket which will get you to the hostel. The hostel and room was clean and has nice showers etc. Lockers are in the rooms, a 2 CHF coin is needed but that can be obtained from reception. Beds in the room are adequate, room does get hot at night but the window was left open to regulate that. Staff at the hostel are friendly, I bought my airport return ticket from the reception desk, costs less than buying it at the train station. Breakfast was nice, a decent selection buffet style was provided with juices, coffees and teas. There is a Migro’s supermarket outside the hostel less than a minute walk, and has restaurants nearby too. A good budget stay if you want to spend more on your activities outside.

My heartfelt thanks to the lovely Guest Service Agents Natali, Rafael and the young pretty lady. They are really helpful and professional in rendering help as well as getting my queries answered. The breakfast is nice though variety can be improved. I particularly love the museli cereal with big choco chunks. The kiwi they provided during breakfast is very sweet too. This apt is less than 15 mins walk from Altstetten. They provide all-in-one shampoo/bath wash/hand wash and body lotion. Do note that they do not have air con system.

Good capsule hotel in an excellent location, easy to access anywhere within 10-20mins by walking or their transport system with a stop just around the corners the lockers to keep items where quite big. Bathroom felt quite clean, with soap in the showers and towel and hairdryer available immediately in their if required. The capsules were well equipped with a foldable table if required, light and storage/small ledge if required - it has 2 plug sockets and mirror and 3 clothing hooks too. The capsules felt safe and private with a curtain also, the rooms also felt spacious. The pillow and duvet were comfy. I was able to ask for an iron when I needed one too. Overall as I booked last minute, the price was so worth it!

Stayed for 2D1N. Comfortable and spacious room. One tram down to the hb station. There are a lot of restaurants downstairs so no worries if you wanna settle on your meals nearby. They gave us cute Lindt lady bugs chocolates for our honeymoon trip , really appreciate their gestures! Breakfast was really simple tho. Other than that everything’s fine for this hotel👍🏻

Nice hotel just outside the main area of Zurich. Room was a bit expensive considering it was small and had a shared bathroom. Maybe it was just Zurich prices, or the fact that Taylor Swift was in town and lots of places week booked up. Good tram system meant it was still easy to get around. Room was a bit hot at night and there was construction going on literally outside my window in the morning with the builders blaring their music in my window.

Very Good
ZZHICHENGPrices in Switzerland are indeed very high, with house prices more than 200 yuan higher than in Germany, but there are refrigerators and very simple breakfast. Good location, very close to the train station, but there is a short step is not convenient for large luggage tourists, there is an elevator to praise. Room size is OK, can open a large suitcase. Clean, bathroom is small, but bath is OK.
GGuest UserYes, there is no hiding the fact that the Krone Pop-up has gone to great lengths to keep their prices as low as possible, but for the most part it is a well-run and comfortable base for short stays. The rooms and communal lounge are inviting, stylish and well-kept. The building is many centuries old, and traces its various incarnations are visible in these areas, giving it a quirky character. The views across the river to the old town are also beautiful. A hotel in this price category so close to HB is obviously a rarity, let alone one with nice perks like this. The WiFi was incredibly fast and stable. Late check-in worked perfectly. The hotel has a slick system for online check-in and the key dispenser at the entrance worked without a hitch. The Assistant Manager was really helpful and welcoming by e-mail in advance. To be fair, my stay was on a Sunday night, so the cleaning frequency may have been lower than usual, but the communal toilets and showers were not in great shape. They clearly are not designed for how intensely they are used, nor are they cleaned often enough for it. There's nothing worse in a communal shower than a moist shower curtain and no space to avoid it. Add to that the hair, sticky residue and grubby towel on the floor, and suddenly the room price doesn't seem like such a bargain. The solution is so simple: a pile of fresh floor towels and basket for used ones, plus some Mr. Clean for self-service cleaning during unmanned hours. The Soeder toiletries were lovely though! Arriving late on a hot day also proved to be unlucky, because I arrived to an overheated, stuffy room with no time to let it cool down before going to bed. The adjacent bar really is loud, but not much of a hindrance to sleep because it seems to close early (some time around midnight, on Sunday at least). The facing building across the narrow alley is very close and looks directly into the room, limiting the privacy and therefore how open you can leave the windows to let fresh air in. So, all-in-all the sleep quality was just too low. The heat, noise and lack of privacy made for a restless night. I just needed a place to spend 7 hours between my flight arriving late at night and then my train departing early the next morning, and the Krone Pop-up was the pragmatic choice for that. I wouldn't consider it for work trips - the sleep quality isn't good enough - but it could be a sociable, good-value base for leisure trips during the week.

GGuest UserThe light by the bed made an electrical noise, which prevented us from sleeping. Even though it was 11pm, a very friendly and helpful employee came and helped us by turning off the electricity by the bed. Unfortunately, the bathroom ventilation was on for quite a while, which meant it was noisy for even longer.
The location, however, is very good and so is the price.
GGuest UserGreat location! The self check-in machine is easy to use. The train to the airport is right outside the door. There was construction going on outside when I arrived, but it was not noisy. I traveled alone and the room was adequate, but there was no table and it was a bit inconvenient to put all the luggage on the floor. Even a chair would be nice. The great thing is that there are free lockers that are large enough for suitcases.
