    Pleasant place with good service, but the creaky parquet floor was driving me crazy and I was in the same room. Good luck to anyone in the room below.

    First, the receptionis gave us room 103. My husband felt dizzy by the sloping floor and very narrow room. Then we moved to 302. Wide and not sloping anymore. The wi-fi connection is poor. Bathroom ok, breakfast not included 15 CHF with generous portion and variety. Quite environment. Near Lake Zurich. Transportation is not free from hotel in Zurich but you can buy from this hotel. Average assessment.

    Wonderful little but well packed hotel. It's far more than 3 stars hotel according to service and accommodation.

    Smart and quite stylish place to stay. It's an interesting blend of contemporary glass bathrooms and decor in rooms with high ceilings and parquet flooring.

    It's not mind blowing and does feel quite similar to many other hotels so the 'design' part of the name doesn't really mean any significant.

    Comfortable beds with a wide selection of pillow options and standard teas and coffees in the room.

    No air con makes for a warm night if it's been a hot day in Zurich but big doors to open and a fan can help alleviate the heat a bit.

    The wooden floors can be noisy but they provide ear plugs to help if the upstairs neighbours are making lots of noise. And if you are on the front of the hotel the road is noisy at times so getting a good sleep on a hot night is unlikely to happen unless you don't care about being hot and sleep like a log.

    All in all it's quite smart and comfortable but it's not on the revisit list.

    Very nice staff. Close to bus/train connections. Only thing is squeaky wooden floors. Great hotel concept and design.

    It was very nice. A bit weird at first but then the room were gorgeous. The place is in the best place of Zürich. Not that far from center. We walked around 15 min max at normal pace to arrive in mid center. It was great. Even breakfast is good.

    The Lady's First is an attractive concept, but the styling is dissapointing . The sauna and health suite (no gym though) upstairs is a nice bonus, however the hotel can be let down by the service. At breakfast you can be left waiting for a while until the shoestring staff realise you are in the dining room. The lack of a late night reception can also be frustrating. The rooms are cute, but the lack of soft carpeting can mean that a good night's sleep is ruined by your fellow guests arriving at odd hours in noisy high heels. I did have a sound night'S sleep the three days I was there. No air conditioning so that you can't close the windows in hot weather and the street is quite noisy at night.

    This hotel presents a bit of a conundrum, on one hand it presents itself as an upscale “design” hotel, whereas in other aspects it is a more modest ordinary hotel. Based on the description on their Web site I expected something very special, whereas what we experienced was something very mundane. It was not what I would describe as a “full service” hotel; other than breakfast there were no restaurant facilities and no reception desk support after about 10 PM. It is very conveniently located for the lake and is short walk to Bellevue and another 5 minutes to the “old town” and shopping center. The check-in was efficient; although the reception staff was all pleasant and spoke excellent English (as did most of the hotel staff); they were often overwhelmed by the smallest problem and showed lack of experience and training.
    The entrance to the hotel and lobby itself is up about 5 steps from the street, however, there is a lift to accommodate a wheel chair and the elevator is a generous size; the public rooms (lobby and restaurant are on one accessible floor). Oddly the rooms can only be enter with great difficulty by wheel chair as there is a high step under the doors, so it is not really a handicap accessible hotel.
    The “suite” was really just a modest room. The bathroom was an opaque glass walled cubicle carved out of the pre-existing bedroom placed directly in the room. The bed was a double size and but was not of good quality or very comfortable. The room was on the first floor and overlooked a restaurant. There is no air-conditioning so it was necessary to sleep with the windows open. There are restaurants with tables outside, serving until 12:30 at night and on the weekends quite a lot of noise from traffic. The bedroom was adequate but not particularly comfortable. The rooms are cheaply decorated, modern but not particularly new. The storage space was very limited, bordering on non-existent. The lighting was very poor. The work desk had no phone, (only on the bedside table), a single electrical socket under the desk at floor level, with no adapter; a computer, fan or desk light could be active only one at a time. The wooden floors were a annoying; it was very loud when the people above us were moving around. The general bedroom ambiance and particularly the creaky floors put me in mind of an upscale boarding house of 50 years ago.
    The bathroom was a small with very limited shelf space for toiletries. The tub was an adequate length but narrow. Soap both for the sink and the tub/shower was from dispensers, which projects an image of a budget hotel or motel. The toiletries offered were very limited. The hotel also promotes towel reuse but provides minimal space to hang used towels, which are relatively small and thin. The bathroom was basically clean, (except for the glasses which were dirty and were never replaced). One note: with the opaque glass walls the light can be annoying if one uses the bathroom during the night.
    The breakfast was limited but tasty. One thing that was particularly annoying was an additional charge of CHF6 for a 2dl glass of fresh orange juice; the other problem is that the breakfast room is so small that it can not handle all the weekend breakfast guests. We were forced to go outside to a restaurant and buy our breakfast because of this. At these prices quite an inconvenience and quite an extra expensive.
    The spa includes 2 sauna and 1 steam room with rest areas, for use exclusively by woman. But wellness or beauty treatments are not included in the price, are quite expensive and offer no discount for hotel guests. The spa is also open to the public and thus quite busy, so not a very relaxing or quiet retreat.
    Overall I was terribly disappointed. It is an adequate but certainly not an outstanding hotel. It seems to want to present itself an up-scale establishment but there are a number of items that negate such a label.
