Gimmelwald Vacation Packages

As a retired flight attendant I'm used to small hotel rooms (Japan, Paris, etc) so that wasn't a big surprise to me. There is ample storage space for two people, even in the bathroom, which was a nice surprise. I loved the rain shower! There is ample room in the fridge, but the ice storage space was coated with thick ice, barely room for one little ice tray. On a down note, we couldn't control the thermostat in the room. It stayed at 24.5 C (76 F) for our entire stay, which is uncomfortable for guest from Texas. I couldn't find a phone number posted to help us. After the sun went down, we opened the windows to cool the room off so we could sleep. It is a short walk to Zürich train/bus stations with plenty of dining spots in the neighborhood. There is a lovely Italian restaurant, Milano's, across the street, so after a long travel day to get there, that was a pleasant relief. There is also a well stocked Coop grocery right next door. There is also a convenient coffee/snack off the lobby. Recommend bringing the ceramic cups from the room to hold the paper coffee cups as they are extremely hot to hold by hand. On the lower level (-1) there is a gym and a "WeWash" laundry room. You need to download the WeWash app to use. I loved this! It even provides the soap so you do't have to pack any! You can stay in your room and the app tells you when your load it finished. I will definitely return to City Pop!

The staff are helpful. Breakfast is free and very good.

Pros - Overall, the apartment was clean and modern. It is spacious with enough storage for our belongings. Convenient location and come with strong working A/C, great feature in summer; also having washer, dryer and functioning kitchen are good features. Cleaners come in everyday to help wash dishes, tidy up, etc. which was nice. Cons - Dryer was not functional and had to self fix. Shower tiles were grimy and moldy.

I really enjoyed the room with amenities. It had wonderful lighting. Everything was spotless , comfortable and the service incredible. Very close to the train station and 2 trams. Very nice restaurants surrounding the hotel. I would definitely come back.

Very friendly staff. Room was nice and clean. Well insulated did not hear other guests. Shower was a bit small, but nice enough. The breakfast was delicious, but quite off putting were the flies that swarmed your food as you were eating.

Great location and friendly staff

Very Nice Area and Nice staff
