Braunwald Vacation Packages

TLDR: No air conditioning. They supplied fans. Ice machine didn't work, but supplied cubed ice in cups when asked. Staff was helpful when directly asked. Room was clean. Photo makes the room look bigger than it is. They provide parking. It's expensive, but much better than trying to find public parking for a car.

Nice rooms and beds. Thankfully the rooms had a small AC unit which kept them cool. The common areas were hot and uncomfortable late in the day. Breakfast was good, with a very nice woman in charge. Hotel staff was very helpful with train and bus information

Bathroom with clear sliding door about 1 foot away from the bed (very little privacy). Shower only enclosed on one side with shallow floor and poor drainage. You have about 4 minutes of shower time before water spills out into the bathroom. Only one small elevator. Staff were polite and lobby was cute with good selection of services including coffee and breakfast. Surrounding area had good selection of places to eat.

My family and I stayed here for 7 days and made it as our base for our Switzerland trip. I could not have been more happy staying at this hotel. We stayed at the family room where it has A/C and to top it off there is a fan in the room which we used to circulate the air. Mind you, we were here in July - the middle of summer heat. Common complain I read is the noise of train passing by - but, the room seem to have been improved with double pane windows which helped reduced the noise significantly. I barely heard the train and slept vey well after a long adventure. Highlight is just the included breakfast with so much selections! The cleanliness of the room and the nicest staff I have ever encountered in Europe. The gentleman at the buffet greets you with enthusiasm every morning, ask you if you slept well and takes care of every guest that comes in to eat. Oh man and the cheese they have there are outstanding! And! Winterthur is just a charming place with a nice old town you can walk around, not to mention you’re just 5-8 min walk to the station. I love love my stay at Hotel Banana City. One of best stay I’ve had in Europe.

Rooms finish before they start. They switch off the air cons in night time and make customers swelter in hot weather. They say it’s climate emergency. Breakfast buffet is absolutely horrible. No variety at all. Better off to eat off street. People pull long faces. Nobody smiles at this hotel. Staff is so aloof that they get angry that somebody has come to their hotel. Rooms are so small that they don’t even have a chair and a desk to sit. One of the worse hotels I have stayed.

walkable distance to zurich lake and just few steps to reach local trains Overall good
