Zürich Hotel Reviews

    Sorell Hotel St. Peter
    Expedia Verified Review…
    5 / 5 Excellent
    I had such a great stay at Sorell Hotel St. Peter. The hotel is completely new and you can feel it. The location is great, 1 minute walk from Paradeplatz, the lake and the main shopping street. The staff is really lovely, professional and always willing to help you. The room is very spacious with great bedding and amenities (Nespresso machine, Ritual body products). As it was the St. Nicholas weekend, I received a very generous present from the hotel which was a nice surprise. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone and this will be my first choice for future stay. Thank you!
