Placid Hotel Design & Lifestyle Zurich

The stay was ok. When I dropped a bag of laundry off at the hotel front desk they returned it with a 200 Chf bill. The front desk employees just shrugged and said that’s how much it cost. Never staying with them again

Please note: this hotel is primarily a corporate-business hotel. With that, the location in/near downtown Zurich was excellent. Front desk staff were wonderful. Food was, overall, very good, but was way over-priced. (But then again, this is the case all over Switzerland.). Room was okay. They actually gave us two connected rooms, which was a pleasant surprise. Bathroom facilities were just okay as there was little in the way of expected extras like toiletries to include hand soaps (no facial soap) and other amenities. When and if I ever come come to Zurich again, I will definitely consider staying at this hotel, but will first look at other ones first.

I think the rooms are meant for single business travellers that are on short business trips, not for couples or families travelling for extended trips with more than carry-on sized luggage. The room we had was very small and once the curtain is drawn across the window for privacy, you lose use of the bar/sitting area. With two people in the room we were constantly bumping into one another and were constantly moving our luggage trying to find some convenient storage space. We travel a lot, 38 countries in the past 10 years and we've never had a hotel room with a double bed up against the wall so one person has to crawl over the other to get out. I work on my laptop every evening while travelling and I found it difficult to find a comfortable space to use that also had good access to the receptacle plugs. The design looks cool, but isn't really conducive to a comfortable stay.

Hotel was amazing in every way except the rooms on the 11th floor were way too hot and the air conditioning even on the lowest appeared to only provide hot air.

Friendly staff and new installations. Reataurant available until late.
