Zurich Hotels
 
Which hotel is a better location for a week in Zurich? The Marriott Hotel or The Renaissance Tower Hotel? Which has the nicer Club Room? We will sightseeing in November and would like to walk mostly. Thank you.

I think the Marriott is in a better location, though it is not a "great" location either. The Renaissance is near some decent transit options.

Have never stayed at the Renaissance, but have stayed at the Marriott. The Marriott is okay. Nothing great, but okay.

You might try looking at the Marriott forum on Flyertalk. I've only stayed on the club floor at the Renaissance that is further out (Glattpark).

Here's a review on this thread of the tower. You can probably go back a few pages on the thread and find other reviews.

A week is an awfully long time to spend in zurich - and you don;t mention what you are there for - business or meeting or ?

If not - do you have other time set aside for the mountains - since Zurich is primarily a business city and definitely not the best of Switz.

Switzerland is one of my favorite destinations, but I wouldn't stay more than a night or two in Zurich, when there is gorgeous scenery to the south and south-east (too far for a day trip). I stayed at the Kindli, a boutique hotel located in the heart of the old town, and it was well worth it for comfort, charm and location.
