We stayed in a L for Large room complete with a spacious bathroom, very comfy bed and small seating area overlooking the train tracks.
The added little touches are where 25hours Hotel Zurich Langstrasse excels. Every little thing has been carefully considered, from the retractable sunshades to the customisable Do Not Disturb signs, and the portable chargers for when your phone is running out of juice from over-Instagramming the hotel and its beautiful city surroundings.
Not only do 25hours Hotel Zurich Langstrasse provide everything you need whilst staying in the hotel, they’ve also extended the same level of forethought to small touches that might help during your adventures in Zurich. Due to collaborations and partnerships with local companies guests have the chance to rent a bike from Schindelhauer, hire a car from MINI, borrow running shoes from On for a jog around the city and take music around the city with the UE Bluetooth speakers. Some rooms even have vintage polaroid cameras for guests to take out and about on their adventures!
If you’re searching for somewhere to relax outside of your room, 25hours Hotel Zurich Langstrasse has both a work area complete with iMacs and printers for the digital traveller (along with some arcade games for procrastination) in addition to a rooftop terrace and ‘trainspotting’ sauna up on the top floor.

Popular with locals and nomads alike, make sure to nab a reservation at Neni during your stay to enjoy their delicious blend of Persian, Moroccan, Israeli, Turkish and Austrian flavours.
If you opt to include breakfast in your room rate, this is served daily in Neni Restaurant where you can feast on a wide selection of continental goodies with some Middle Eastern offerings also in the mix. Order your coffee and any eggs dishes from your table and then stack your plate high with delicious meats, cheeses and freshly baked breads.
Cinchona Bar gets particularly lively in the evenings, although throughout the day you’ll find guests and locals chilling out with a cup of coffee and a newspaper in various nooks around the bar. Focussing their menu around a highball concept Cinchona Bar serves up a fantastic range of cocktails, top tip, the Lady Killer is delicious but deadly! As well as hosting regular events and guest bartenders, whether you are dropping in for an afternoon tipple or a late night hangout, you’ll be sure to find a great vibe with awesome mixes.
