Riverside Hotel Merian - opening 2026

Old Town

"Hotel position is very very nice, directly on Rhein riverside. And we got a room upgrade for a riverside balcony double room. But for being a 4-star hotel it has also some pretty obvious weaknesses: no air conditioning in the room and very weak elsewhere in the lobby - a fan was placed on a chair in the room, but it just moves hot air around and doesn't give much of a relief. Breakfast buffet also quite unsatisfactory compared to other similar hotels, and very expensive at 25 CHF per person...

"The hotel is situated in the older part of the town. The location is very good. Not far from the transportation. It is an effort to walk up to the tram stop with the suitcase.
