Pictures on the site dont give an exact idea about the hotel and its surrounding, Prices seem to be very expansive for this kind of room compared to similar hotels around the See but STAFF is very keen and available to help you.

My first visit to Zurich was made even more enjoyable by staying at the Helmhaus. Excellent location within a 5 minute walk of all the major attractions including the lake, Bahnhofstrasse, Altstadt, the Opera House, and the Art Gallery. Friendly, intelligent staff, lovely room, and a marvellous breakfast. I will definitely stay at the Helmhaus when I return to Zurich.

The hotel is in a fabulous location in the old town of Zurich. The hotel has great character and a great modern renovation. The staff was very nice and met every request. Out of the 4 hotels we booked in Switzerland during our vacation, this one had the best overall vibe.

This was our first hotel on our long jouney and it left us wishing all of our hotels would be this nice. The rooms were incredibly spacious with hard wood floors. The local was great, but it is about a 1/2 hour car ride from the airport, so make sure you have about 80 francs for the ride!!
