We found the staff to be so obliging and helpful. It is close to The Old Town, Train station and restaurants. The room with the Balcony was spacious with a small bathroom. We enjoyed the Breakfast and all the choices of food. We would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Zürich.

Great staff!!! All were so friendly, informative and helpful. They went above and beyond when one of our travel party left their passport in a room safe. They got the passport out of the safe and scanned/emailed a copy to us very quickly. Then held on to it until we could return. They also prepared to go breakfast bags for our group when we were checking out at 6:30am. Spacious rooms and breakfast was great with lots of variety. Love that the hotel is close to the train station and lots of shops and restaurants.

An affordable option in a good area. It's not the fanciest hotel but the room was nice and I felt that we got more than we paid for. Plus, they include a free breakfast that consisted of meats, cheeses, breads, cereal and boiled eggs. My only critique was the size of the shower, which was very small: less than 3 ft X 3 ft. Everything else was modernized, clean and efficient.

Hotel St. Josef is a really lovely oasis in the middle of Zurich. It is close to multiple forms of public transportation and to the train station (side note: do not take trains through Germany to get to Zurich...you will regret it!). The staff is friendly (although inconsistent in their English fluency, ranging from good to none). Once sleep time comes the rooms of wonderfully quiet (Zurich is a quiet city in general), and logically and ergonomically organized. Great shower (if a bit leaky to the floor due to a shower curtain arrangement) and the bed was very comfortable. I also liked that there was one hard and one squishy pillow. It is great to have a choice. Breakfast is good, although European (no omelette bar or waffle/pancake maker here), with the typically outstanding European bread options. Good vegetables, fruits, meats, cheeses, and yummy yogurt and, of course, excellent coffee and tea options. I also ate in the restaurant for dinner and it, too, was quite good. A lovely little jewel of a hotel that I found serendeipitously but will definitely stay at again if in Zurich.

Problem confirming reservation as money taken from card prior to arrival without notification or authorisation (which resulted in card being cancelled by bank). Therefore needed to confirm reservation both through Expedia and directly with the hotel.
