Detailed Reviews
I stayed in Zurich in Sept 2022 and had a good experience with this hotel, it is in a good location (15 min walk from Train Station) Tram Station right outside, this is definitely the most efficient way to travel round the City.
The staff were always friendly, looked after our luggage upon arrival and check out as we explored the City.
Also near shops and Cafe's. Overall have no problems with this hotel and would 100% stay again if in Zurich.

We were a family of 4, the booking was changed to 2 twin rooms for 3nights. This hotel only holds max of 3 in a room. The rooms were very small, basically you get a bed and wifi that's about it. No fridge, no kettle. It's good for overnight but not for family stay more than a day. The staff were friendly. The location is great, tram#4 stops at the hotel. This tram takes you to central Zurich in 20min. There is a Coop grocery store and Starbucks 10min walk away.

This hotel has everything you need at a reasonable price (for Switzerland). Basic but clean, efficient and fun. Located beside the tram line it is easy to get anywhere, underground parking if you have an auto and a nice, basic breakfast buffet.
Easy walking distance to all services and a great COOP grocery store a block away.
The staff were very friendly and helpful although the night desk person was grumpy with me the final morning. Must have had a rough night as it was a big departure from every other interaction I had with him.

This was the worst experience I’ve ever had and believe me I have traveled a lot throughout Europe, Latin America, US and China. When I made the reservation for 3 people for December 14 through December 16, their website showed amazing rooms, ample with lots of amenities.
When we arrived at 8:30 pm very tired and exhausted we found a totally different hotel from what they depicted on their website. When they brought us to our room we almost had a heart attack. The room was very tiny, no chair no privacy for taking a shower no place to hang your clothes and to top it all the door didn’t close all the way.
When we tried to call the front desk we realized there was no phone in the room! I w Ed by downstairs and explained to the attendant and she came up to the room and said “all you have to do is push it really hard like this and you can lock it”. We told her “and when we leave? Does one of us needs to stay behind to close the door?” I went around the corner and saw everything that I had seen when I booked my room!!!!!!!!! The lobby, the bar, the reception area, everything! The attendant, Alicia, told us both hotels were the same but the other one was “the budget” and this one Novotel Ibis was more upscale. Same hotel but different prices.
Dis the budget hotel gave me a refund? NO WAY! Terrible. Be careful. Novotel Ibis City-West awesome!

we were promised rooms close to each other (traveling with kids), but they gave us on a different floor, and all I got was sorry the agent did a mistake, if it was the other way around they would charge me for sure .
When nothing helps to try to talk to them. We got disappointed

I was shocked to see the washroom doesn’t have lock neither from inside nor outside which makes the stay extremely uncomfortable. This is actually a bare minimum thing any hotel stay should ideally provide.This should be considered and fixed at the earliest. Thanks

Great budget hotel, easy check in, good location and clean. Only thing to note is that the shower is in an open area in the room and has a clear door with a frosted mid strip (presumably for privacy). Makes for very awkward showering if you are not a couple. No kettle in room but one available downstairs to use.

The entire staff is really helpful and courteous. If you have a baby then this place is definitely a budget friendly option. Would have preferred if dinner and lunches are also served even if paid and rooms had electric kettle for heating water esp for babies.

Good cheap hotel by Switzerland standards! It’s not right in the centre but you can walk there in 30min and if you don’t fancy that there’s a tram stop right opposite the hotel which will take you in in 10min.
The breakfast has a very good selection and is plentifully stocked. Hotel staff are very friendly.
Bedrooms are on the basic side but if you’re just using it to sleep each night at the end of a day exploring they’re perfectly functional.

We asked for a double Bed room and they gave us a 2 single bed room. They don't explain the guests anything about breakfast and if you don't remember if you payed for It or not a kitchen staff member will ask you aloud in front of everybody which is your room and tell you that you don't have right for breakfast, there are ways to treat guests like guests. Rooms are very small, beds are confortable though. In my opinion is not worth for the money, if you can afford to stay somewhere else, do It.

Response from Markus Koller, General Manager at ibis budget Zurich City West
Responded 22 May 2023
Dear Rolsot, Thank you for your comment. I m sorry if you didn t have a good experience in our hotel. I do apologies for the room. When the hotel is full we have no other option than given a twin room. For the breakfast,we have to control the guest to avoid any abuse. I understand that you be disappointed by such situation, but so many guest forgot that they didn t take the breakfast in their package even after the reminder from the reception, that it is for us the only solution. My team didnt want to offend you, they were just applying the procedure and as it is a regular situation for us, we do it at the entrance of the restaurant. We hope that you will give us a chance to better served you in the future Regards

Dear Goy S, please contact our reservation department for long stays. The price is depending on the season you would like to stay with us.
No.. There is no parking available in this one.. There is another hotel just by its side- Ibis Zurich City west (not the budget one). That one may have. But I am not sure..
no. but you can ask it at Reception. and put CHF 20 as a deposit.
laptop/ mobile charging points
I use iphone and iPad instead of laptop. charge my device once I get into my room. and charge the portable battery plus pocket wifi when I go to bed. basically, charge every with usb line. and every room got a electricity socket near by the table. I remember seeing a guy in the resting area using his laptop with a power line connected. so I guess there is at least one charging point(s). in the hostel.
Not sure about the ibis budget Zurich city west hostel. but in other ibis budget hostels. they allow early check-in and store up your luggage in their locker(s) with a small price. but if you wanna rent a lock from them. you gonna need to pay for the deposit first. after finish using it or them. you can get your deposit back. most ppl I saw bring their own lock instead.
Nope, but the staff downstairs was very helpful and can meet all your kettle / heating / eating needs
