Such a lovely experience! We enjoyed learning about the history of chocolate, the interactive exhibits and of course getting to taste some chocolates along the way. Definitely worth a visit when in Zurich! A really interesting experience for FIFA Musuem as well! Loved exploring the history of football, seeing all the World Cup memorabilia and learning more about the iconic moments in football history. There are also interactive activities that make the visit more engaging. A nice attraction to add to your Zurich itinerary!

Good hotel with nice views and friendly staff. The location is a bit further out and the room could do with a mini fridge.

Nice hotel and everything went very well! The only minor drawback was the heat; a fan in the room would have been appreciated. Other than that, no complaints, I recommend it!
