Hotels near Franz Hero Skulpturengarten, Wetzikon

Booked this hotel to stay in during our roadtrip through Switzerland. We booked the Family suite and it was large enough for the four of us. Two kids had separate beds. Room is spotless with good view and very clean. Staff are very welcoming and helpful and nothing was ever too much trouble. During our stay, it was my daughter’s birthday and the staff surprised her with chocolate cake and ice cream. This was a very special touch. Parking in the hotel is 30 CHF per night however just across the street it is only 10. Very easy-going hotel with good access to Rapperswill and transport links. Highly recommended.

Leider wurden wir vom Self Check-In im Erdgeschoss platziert. Die war dem Schlaf meiner ängstlichen Frau gar nicht zugänglich ebenso wie dass nur eine leichte Bettdecke zur Verfügung stand. Auch der vor dem Zimmer in hoher Kadenz vorbeifahrende Zug trug nichts zur Ruhe bei. Der Anblick zum Abfalleimer unter der Spüle wegen fehlender Türe war auch nicht gerade berauschend(wie wäre es mit Instandhaltung und generell etwas mehr Sauberkeit?) Unter diesen Umständen eher teures Hotel zumal wir am Wochenende da waren und das Frühstück extra bezahlt werden muss.

We only stayed one night but I wished it could have been longer. We got lake views, a balcony, the bed was comfy, the bathroom was cool. Good sockets near the bed (although they are the Swiss hexagonal shape if you're not using USB, so the generic European adapter won't work), lots of lighting options. My colleague said the coffee was good! I struggle to sleep the first night in a new place, but not here. It was great!

A really disappointing experience, the aircon in the room did not work, we were given a double bed even though we had called ahead and were reassured that we had two twin beds. We got a room here as part of a package with Coldplay tickets so the room wasn’t booked directly with the hotel. This was the main reason we called ahead of our stay to ensure we had the correct bed setup - we are father and daughter so a double bed was not appropriate. When I phoned to confirm the person behind the desk said he was too busy with check ins and would call me back- two hours later and still nothing. When I called back the person I spoke to was rushing to get me off the phone, I confirmed that they had our booking and asked if we had a room with twin beds. The person I spoke to advised we had two twin beds and everything was fine, when we checked in after our concert this was not the case. The hotel was fully booked and the bed could not be split into two twins so we had to make do with a double. The room itself was very hot and stuffy, the aircon didn’t work - initially we couldn’t get it to switch on due to the finicky lock on the window but even once on it did not do much to cook down the room. The only positive thing we have to say really is that the breakfast was okay and staff did try and resolve the situation with the bed by coming to check if they could split the bed into two which unfortunately couldn’t be done. The shower was mediocre and there were no toiletries provided in the room - only some soap for hand washing. The shower heat was not consistent, it kept going hot and cold whilst in use. Overall I would not recommend this hotel, I am not sure how this is classed as 4 stars.

The hotel is wonderful in many aspects. The interesting thing is that it is located in Walliselen, just right next to Glatt Zentrum shopping department store. The hotel offers air-conditioned rooms and free WiFi access throughout the property. The Internet speed is fast. With the modern electric tram, not only the bus, brings me to reach the city center of Zurich and the Main Train Station in short time. In the room, it provides a flat-screen cable TV, a desk, and a bathroom with shower. At lobby area, I noticed that guests can also enjoy the food corner. There is a vending machines there. When need anything, the 24-hour front reception always is there. Very helpful staffs. I also would like to mention the General manager, Mr. Frank Trapa. He is very friendly. Always regard and care to the guests. :-) So I will come back to stay in this hotel in the near future. Best regards, Dr. Vorravee Pattaravongvisut Man on the Move
