Hilton Zurich Airport

Nice hotel especially for those looking to catch an early flight out of Zurich. This place is actually relatively easy to find and tastefully decorated. Unfortunately this is not a good hotel for those looking to explore Zurich as it is pretty far from the downtown region and requires a significant drive or taxi ride. The room was nicely done and actually had a king size bed, wifi worked excellent and the bar was pretty good as well. Overall, this Hilton property is pretty much just like all the rest and is great if catching an early flight.
Pros–
Near airport
Free wifi
Friendly service
Reasonably priced for Switzerland
King sized bed
Cons–
Far from downtown Zurich
Nothing nearby
Non functional shower door
Run of the mill Hilton

Der Hotelbus fuhr 5 Minuten zu früh ab und das ohne uns (war wahrscheinlich aufgrund der Konferenz vorzeitig voll)! Als ich nach 10 Minuten bei der Hotel-​Lobby anrief und nach dem Verbleib des Busses nachfragte erklärte mir die freundliche Dame: «das kann nicht sein! Wir sollen entweder ein Taxi nehmen oder 30 Min. warten».
Wir kamen zu spät zu unserem Termin :-(

This is one of the worst hotels I’ve ever stayed at for its value; and I travel for a living so I’ve stayed in literally hundreds of hotels in cities all over the world.
The employees at the desk didn’t know about anything around the hoteI. I asked if there was anywhere to eat, because they charge $ 60 USD for their shitty little lunch buffet, and they told me «no», even though there were restaurants just up the block.
They also told me the closest ATM was like 3 blocks away when there was an ATM in the building.
Additionally, they charge you to use the TV, and the mini fridge is electronic and will automatically charge you if you move anything — so there is no space to put your own things.
Probably one of the most frustrating things about my stay, was the fact that the WiFi would drop out every 3 minutes and then I would have to log back in every time. It happened on every single one of my devices (both cells, both laptops, iPad, etc) no matter where I was in the building.
The bar was a total rip off, every mixed drink costs $ 30 per.
In short, this hotel was absolutely not worth the money, I pray that if you’re ever in Zurich that you won’t have to stay there for any reason.

We got assigned to this hotel by Swiss Air due to some missing connecting flight. I’ve stayed at several Hilton hotels before, but this is probably the worse one. It seems like this hotel is 100% focused on stranded airline passenger and airline crew members. This hotel doesn’t provide any facilities other than a gym. We had dinner at their restaurant since the locations of this hotel is a bit remote and lack of options. The prices at their restaurant are simply ridiculous! We went for a Swiss cheese-​fondu and a glass of wine and got charged about 100CHF.
Their breakfast menu is boring and crazily overpriced.
I cannot think of any reason why staying at this hotel again.

Sehr gutes Hotel, leider impliziert der Name, dass das Hotel am Flughafen gelegen ist. Dem ist aber nicht so, entweder man nimmt ein Taxi (ca. 5 Minuten) oder man nutzt den Hotel-​Bus, der alle 20 Minuten fährt.
Unabhängig davon ist das Hotel nur zu empfehlen. Teilweise ist die Einrichtung nicht mehr ganz modern, aber es ist sauber, gepflegt und es funktioniert alles wie es soll. Internet ist verfügbar und schnell, Fitnessstudio klein aber gut ausgestattet.
Zu empfehlen ist das im Hotel gelegene Restaurant Horizon10. Die Küche ist sehr gut und die Aussicht phänomenal.

This is a decent Hilton, conveniently located not far from the airport. It has an airport shuttle that runs every 20 minutes. Although recently updated, you can see the wear and tear already, because the hotel is very busy catering to airline staffs.

Superb hotel. Only giving 4 stars because it is wwaayyyyy overpriced. It’s nice but not THAT nice. Thankfully I had points to use. Otherwise it would have been $ 360+ for ONE night!!! The shuttle service to and from the airport was extremely convenient. The executive lounge was top notch (American standards and on par for European standards). The service was very friendly. Their steam room didn’t work, but the sauna was nice and hot. The gym was small, but adequate. Overall, a well appointed hotel situated on a hill. Definitely not walking distance to the airport, but the shuttles were very prompt and frequent.

We missed our connection and spent New Year’s Eve here. The place was booked but they opened and staffed a banquet room for everyone on a layover. Imagine getting delayed by weather this time of year! We had a great time, thanks Fanny for making our evening special. Hilton is our go to, we’re Honnors members and enjoyed the property. My one complaint, the airport shuttle is a free for all that brings out the worst in weary travelers.

Das Hilton muss man einfach mal besucht haben. Sich an der Bar rum lümmeln oder Seminare besuchen, ja auch das ist möglich in diesem Hotel. Durch die kurze Distanz zum Flughafen triffst du hier Menschen aus aller Welt, was nicht nur interessant ist sondern auch den Horizont erweitert. Parkplätze direkt vor dem Haupteingang gibt es zu genügend und die Ausstattung ist absolut spitze, Hilton eben :-)))
Auch als nicht Hotelgast bist Du hier sehr willkommen und kannst Dich einfach nur wohlfühlen… Hilton ganz meine Welt!

Arrived here last night and must say had a very pleasant stay.
The Hotel is pristine, the room clean, view is excellent, internet speed was fast, got all my work done and woke up refreshed.
Best of all, caught my fight in no time.
Pricey but well worth it.

Stayed here while on a business trip. First of all, Switzerland is so travel friendly for Americans. It’s beautiful and clean. a bit expensive. Food is familiar, but with a Swiss flare. Everyone I met spoke English, everything runs on time, everyone was friendly, helpful & professional. This hotel is no exception. I had free wifi for the week. Breakfast was good quality & abundant selection. I had dinner in my room most nights, it was satisfying. Rooms were clean; not large. gym w/​locker & showers were nice, clean, adequate. coed sauna & steam rooms were very nice. I did not see an american electrical outlet in the hotel, so bring a converter. I didn’t find much to do in the immediate vicinity, but took advantage of the free airport shuttle (every 20 – 30 minutes) because from the airport you can hop on a train to anywhere. I went to Zurich (several times), Interlaken, Zug and Luzern. Again, even the van shuttle was clean, always exactly on time and had a friendly, professional, English speaking driver.

Four star hotel but one star restaurant and internet fees equal 3 star rating. Extremely close to airport and free shuttle come on schedule. Nice large rooms and love the speakers in the bathroom. Man this place is expensive, almost $ 30 for internet and over $ 50 for hamburger and soup. Plus the Horizon restaurant is extremely slow.

This is a very well-​kept property in the Hilton chain. Clean, well decorated, fast wifi, fast check-​in and FREE parking. They lose two stars for charging for wifi though and their generally high prices for amenities! We also appreciated the selection of cable channels with English-​speaking programming. Hilton can (and should) do better!

I stayed here at the end of a long business trip to Europe. I was flying out of Zurich and anything with «airport» in the title was music to my ears. This hotel is very close to the airport. It looks small from the outside, but once inside it is quite large.
My room was spacious and modern, with plenty of sunlight. The bed was very comfortable as well. The bathroom was also big enough so that I wasn’t constantly bumping into things. The rooms would almost qualify as «American sized» in my opinion. They have a restaurant and bar, but they are the only game in town — it is not easy to get to anything else in the area. This by itself is not bad, but the prices are really high at their restaurant,
The service was very good all over the hotel, especially in the morning during the checkout rush. To top it all off, they have a shuttle to the airport that runs quite frequently.

As an American traveling in Europe, you never really know what to expect from hotels. I was flying through Zurich airport, and missed my connection to the US, so I booked a room at the Zurich Airport Hilton. It’s a fine example of an American-​standard hotel in Europe. The low-​rise building doesn’t really look like much from the outside, but the lobby, rooms and restaurants are first-​rate. The room service and restaurant food is excellent.
You an expect spacious rooms, strong air conditioning, well-​appointed rooms and a good selection of english television channels.
Alas, Swiss prices are a bit shocking at times to Americans (very high), but that’s what you need to expect when traveling. There is a free shuttle between the airport and hotel that runs every 30 minutes. The hotel is very close to the airport, about 5 mins away or so.

Great location. Room was comfortable. Staff friendliness is hit or miss. Poorly arranged lobby, no place to gather/​sit. There are a total of four leather chairs that are badly placed. The only real place to meet with friends is the bar or restaurant but you will have to buy something. As an hhonors member, I expected more perks. They recognized the hhonors on checkin and offerred a discount on breakfast (from CFH39 to CFH25) which is very high for a hotel breakfast. Internet is only free in the lobby and only for the first 8 hours that you are there. Otherwise the charge was equivalent to $US40 per day. Everything costs extra in the hotel.
Check out is noon and check in is 2, which is nice. Housekeeping, however, still knocked on the door promptly at 9am to see if we really were checking out. This is practice is becoming common with hotels and is very annoying. Why ask when a guest is leaving if you are not going to respect it?
The only complaint about the room is the size of the bathroom. It was smaller than most quick-​Stay Japanese hotels that I have used.
All in all, I would stay elsewhere in Zurich. There are simply too many better options.

Arrived late at the hotel so did not really spend a huge amount of time at the hotel but this is often the case with airport hotels. Check-​in was speedy, the hotel is however rather large so was a few minutes to get to the room.
The room was very nice. Fairly large and equipped with all the necessary things. There was a watter kettle (nice to be able to make some coffee in the room), good-​sized TV, nice desk and a comfortable chair to relax in. I was in a twin room, would have preferred a large queen or king size bed but the bed was nonetheless comfortable.
The bathroom looked nice but it could have been a bit bigger. Still functional though. There was also a mini-​bar, iron and safe in the room.
Only drawback was the fact that they charge for Internet (always annoys me) and it was a bit disturbing that the information on pricing in the folder/​binder in the room was not accurate. Ended up buying 4 hours of access and it turned out to be rather good since the Internet solution at the airport was the same so could use it there as well the next morning.
There is also a nice gym which I took advantage of. I was told by the front desk staff that there was also a nice area to run outside the hotel but I never used it.
Checked out early so had no time for breakfast but was offered some coffee, juice and croissants to bring with me. Great little extra service that adds value. Took the shuttle to the airport, perfectly on time and very short ride to the airport. Much better than average airport hotel and I would definitely consider staying here next time as well.

Although this hotel is a bit pricey, so are most hotels located close to airports. The standard room is huge by European standards and the shower is the standard American size with glass walls so you can clean up easily and not get water on the floor; again, this is not the case in most European hotels. The fitness center is really good with 3 treadmills, 1 new Precor and 2 older models. They even have ice machines on all floors; again, this is not the case…
The restaurant has reasonable prices given the cost of meals outside of America. The Sunday buffet has a wide assortment of foods and the regular menu offers a lot of familiar choices. If you want snacks, the hotel shop is not always open but there are 3 mini-​marts within walking distance. They are not open on Sundays so you will have to walk a bit further to reach the closest gas station.
As someone who has traveled a lot to Europe in the past 15 years, I took a chance because of the familiar Hilton name and I was not disappointed.
Other Pros — The HVAC is decent, they have a friendly staff and ironing boards in the room. There is even and American wall outlet if you forget to bring enough adapters.
Cons — The refrigerator did not have much space for is you bring your own refreshments. You have to pay for wired or wireless internet access, but wireless is free if you are a Hilton Gold or higher member.

Very elegant property with all the trimmings and everything you would expect from a high-​end Hilton. It’s a great place to stay if you’ve got an early flight the following morning!
