Hotels in Zurich
Hi,
My husband and I will be in Zurich for about 3-4 days in mid-March. We'd like a hotel that has a shower and toilet in the room but everything seems so expensive. Can anyone recommend anything that's less than $200? Even better would be less than $150. We're not adamant about staying within the city limits as long as we were fairly close to transportation into the central area. Thank you!

Hotel Bristol, a 3-star friendly hotel 5 minutes (on foot) from the train station might work:

double rooms in March are 150 to 190 CHF , so it depends what the dollar does between now and then.

Islands03 - My sister and I stayed at the Best Western Hotel Montana in Zurich. It's located very close to the train station. We both were pleased with our choice of hotel. The room has a shower and toilet. I did a search on kayak.com and it lists this one site (gtahotels.com) that has rooms for $142 a night. Since you said mid-March, I didn't know what days you'd be there, so I priced it from a Monday to a Thursday check out.

Hi - I have stayed twice at the Hotel Arlette. The price a couple years ago was around $110. It is across the river from the train station, with an easy walk. I don't think they have a website but you can find contact info for them if you google the name.
Here's the name/address:
Arlette Am Hauptbahnhof Hotel
26 Stampfenbachstrasse

Hotel Alstadt
4 Kirchgasse
Tel: 41-44-250-5353
Fax: 41-44-250-5354
http://www.hotel-altstadt.ch/cms/index.html
This is right in the heart of the old town on a charming cobblestone street, steps from the river, very close to the Grossmunster church, and close to some good restaurants and shops. They have a sleek modern design for their lobby and bar.
We stayed there for a night in January '07, loved the hotel and location but they allow smoking in the hotel so everything smelled of it.

Hi, This summer I had a wonderful stay at the Hotel Zurichberg. It's up on a hill overlooking the lake and Zurich. It's in a beautiful park like setting.
Search around and you may find a fairly good rate. The tram is very close and I thought it was great! Beware, it is a little uphill walking back to the hotel. It took about 18 minutes on the tram to get to the main Bahnoff/train station area

Regarding Travelnut's post: My DH & I stayed at the Pension St. Josef in May 2005. Our room was not ensuite, but we were quite comfortable. I thought the bathroom was GREAT, even if we did have to share.
So I am sure the rooms that do come with a bathroom are quite nice. We found it to be very clean & comfortable. Breakfast was good and the coffee was strong (good coffee=good day!).

Another vote for St. Josef. Nice, very clean, friendly staff, and a really good breakfast.
The rooms without ensuite bath are nice also. There are two large bathrooms with great modern showers and so clean. I think there are only 4 rooms on the floor that share the bathrooms. I have stayed in those a couple of times with no problems and I never see anyone.
