Oberlunkhofen Konaklamanızı Bulun

We arranged to stay here for 1 night on our way further south. The guest house is based on a large, traditional farmhouse and the development work has clearly been done to the very highest standards. The room was spacious and beautifully decorated (in a restrained manner). Our hosts were very welcoming and went out of their way to make sure everything was to our liking. After a refreshing night's sleep we enjoyed a lovely, traditional breakfast. We would have stayed longer if our schedule had permitted.

The hotel needs a reality check. They host groups from overseas on daily basis I.e. people who possibly would not return. Thus, they treat all guests like trash. Just because we looked like the people in the group we got extra bad treatment! First question asked - are you with the group as supposedly they have lower standards for the groups. I have never faced such bad culture in hotel staff ever before in any hotel now living and travelling in Europe for more than 7 years now. Plus the attitude of the staff is unbearable. We left our room at 10 am and by 5pm when we came back the room was not cleaned. The excuse given at the reception was there are too many rooms to be cleaned and since we were on the top floor we needed to wait. And that this is Switzerland and we cannot ask for service and they can still clean the room till 7pm and we have no say in it!! In addition the hotel counts the number of towels they give per guest. There is whole rule booklet of the hotel which is printed but not given to guests. According to the rule book we are supposed to use our towels for 3 days. Since we did not get the rule book we did not know although using same towels for 3 days is unacceptable. If known earlier, we would not have booked this hotel. The housekeeping refused to give extra towels!! The reception lady argued that it is in the rule book and if we need extra towels we need to pay 8 CHF per set. So after agony of 30min. telling them that I was not explained the rules at check in, nor did I get the rule book I had to pay 24 CHF FOR 3 sets of towels or we were asked if we don’t want to pay we could CHECK OUT!!! Can you believe that!!

Lovely location with stunning views but do arrange IN ADVANCE with the front desk to have a LUGGAGE VAN meet you at the train station. The hotel does not allow cars to drive up the hill so you must walk which is no issue unless you are carrying/pulling luggage. It's a 10 minute uphill walk (choice of stairs or flat ground). Beautiful hotel and nice rooms, very clean. The outdoor seating area around the tower and outdoor fire pit area could use some maintenance in terms of daily trash pickup and re-staining of wood furniture. Restaurant was delicious. You can also opt to eat at the Hillz restaurant at the bottom of the hill for something more casual if you are staying several nights. There is also a casual food truck type place when the weather is nice.

Amazing service-from the front desk to restaurants, rooms, everything.Great concept. At the Rooftop Restaurant we really were pampered and the personal did a great service. Not pushy at all, but always present at the right time. Specially regards to Misses Korinna Kis and to Mr David. They went the extra mile to make a great evening amazing. Many thanks to the amazing chef-besides the obvious cooking skills, he proved a lot emotional intelligence and costumer focus.

The room was fairly standard. The bed was a bit narrow but otherwise comfortable. We liked the non-carpeted floor. There was a L'Or single-serve coffee machine in the room, much appreciated. Wifi was good. Breakfast was good. The flat-screen TV in the room was not at all ”smart”, apparently satellite input, poor reception, and only a very small fraction of the provided list of channels was actually available. The thermostat (?) in the room made odd noises several times per hour. There was no ventilator in the bathroom, and 2 of the lightbulbs in the bathroom were burnt out. The set of 3 electrical outlets at the desk were not functioning.

This hotel is located in the western suburbs of Zurich, in a quiet residential area. Quiet that is during the night. In daytime, there are three busy construction sites around the hotel with one at the time of this writing being in the process of demolition. To be fair, in the cold season with the window closed it was hardly a problem. The floor-to-ceiling window takes up one whole wall of the room opening on a large terrace (my room was on the top floor). Should be great for enjoying balmy Zurich midsummer nights but hardly an asset in late fall (except for smokers). The glass door opening onto the terrace is big, does not tip and is not suited for room airing. I found the bed to be on a poor side, narrow and with a mattress that kept sliding off its box base. The pillow, on the other hand, was as good at gets, definitely an asset. The bedside light was not suited for reading in bed. Thumbs up for a secure internet. Shower room was basically fine but the shower cubicle a bit tight in the waist for me and the washbasin had an XS size. The wardrobe is awkwardly divided in such a way that the longer section turned out too short for hanging up an overcoat. A small worktable is set in a niche with the user blocking both daylight and the light from the ceiling lamp. There is no source of light in the niche proper. As this is an apartment hotel, there is a kitchenette with a small fridge, two hot plates and a microwave. For the use of cutlery, plates and pots there is a daily charge that adds up to about 25% of the room rate. The rate I got was all right, but just about, so no home-cooked spaghetti for me. The microwave though proved to be just great for heating ready meals obtained from the supermarket down the road. All in all, seems like a fair deal.

#Praise# Satisfied with mosquito control measures, sound insulation, location, and convenient transportation

FINAL SCORE 1-10: 6/10 RATIO QUALITY/PRICE 1-10: 7/10 WOULD I SUGGEST THIS HOTEL (Y/N): Y HOTEL STRUCTURE: Small hotel. Small hall and desk and quite clean. CLEANLINESS: General overview was fine, nothing special to say STAFF: Met a lady who was kind and calm, got my check in and invoice quite quickly CHECK IN AND CHECK OUT: 10 min check and just left the key to a person in the morning at the breakfast area for my check out since nobody at the desk HALL: Small, clean, nothing special to say. HOTEL LOCATION: 300 away from Schlieren railway station and 7 km away from Zurich city centre. SUPERMARKETS NEAR HOTEL: Several ones near the hotel ROOM EVALUATION Room size: standard size for Swiss criteria, enough big Cleanliness: That is a key topic for me to give a score to an hotel. Room was very clean, simple but well organized as spaces. Bed: Large one, quite comfortable, king size Pillows: Available both soft and hard pillows. Bathroom: Very clean, good shower, provided with soaps and hair products Slippers: Not provided Bathrobe: Not provided Soaps/Cosmetics: Provided Hairdryer: Provided Unpleasant smells: No unpleasant smells Soundproofing: Poor, I got a room ground floor in front of hotel parking WIFI: Free of charge in the room as well in the hotel.

Gym/SPA: No gym or SPA BREAKFAST: I did not use it since, in Switzerland better to pay for what you eat GREEN ASPECTS: I did not notice anything. COVID PROCEDURES: Just a glass at the desk. PROBLEMS AND DISSERVICES: Nothing special to notice. It is a basic solution, good ones if you work in Schlieren area or you want to stay close to Zurich getting more affordable prices since prices in Zurich area are quite high for hotels. If do not have too much expectations and you look for an hotel where to sleep that is clean and not too much expensive this is a good compromise.
