HITrental Oerlikon Apartments

HITrental Oerlikon Apartments Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to HITrental Oerlikon Apartments, you immediately get the sense this isn’t your typical hotel setup — and honestly, that’s exactly what makes it work so well. The building sits quietly on Schwamendingenstrasse, and while it might not have the flashy lobby of a chain hotel, there’s something refreshingly straightforward about the whole experience. You’re getting apartment-style accommodation in one of Zurich’s most practical neighborhoods, which means you’ll actually live like a local rather than just passing through.

The Oerlikon Advantage

Here’s what I love about staying in Oerlikon — you’re perfectly positioned without paying those crazy central Zurich prices. The neighborhood has this great mix of business travelers and residents, so you’ll find proper restaurants and cafes that aren’t just tourist traps. Couples especially seem to get this location (they rate it 9.0, which honestly makes total sense), probably because you can easily hop on the S-Bahn and be in the city center in minutes, then come back to somewhere that actually feels livable. The train connections here are genuinely excellent — I mean, this is Switzerland, so that’s almost a given, but Oerlikon station makes getting anywhere ridiculously easy.

The Apartment Experience

What you’re getting here is proper apartment living, not just a hotel room with a mini-fridge. The spaces feel like someone’s actual home — kitchens where you can cook real meals, living areas where you can spread out your stuff, and that sense of having your own space rather than just crashing somewhere. It’s particularly great if you’re staying more than a couple nights, because you know how hotel rooms start feeling cramped after a while? That just doesn’t happen here. The three-star rating might sound modest, but the apartments are well-maintained and have everything you actually need (rather than fancy things you’ll never use).

Practical Living

The kitchen setup is what really sold me on this place — you can actually grocery shop at the nearby Migros and cook proper meals, which in a city like Zurich can save you serious money. There’s something satisfying about making coffee in your own kitchen rather than hunting for an overpriced cafe every morning. The Wi-Fi works reliably (crucial if you’re working remotely), and the whole building has this quiet, residential feel that makes it easy to settle in. You’re not dealing with hotel corridors full of rolling suitcases at all hours.

Why Guests Love It

The 8.3 rating really reflects what this place does well — it’s not trying to be something it’s not, but it delivers exactly what modern travelers actually want. You get independence, space, and a location that works without the premium price tag of central Zurich. The fact that couples rate the location so highly tells you everything — when you’re traveling together, you want somewhere that feels like home base, not just a place to sleep. HITrental Oerlikon Apartments gives you that authentic Zurich living experience while keeping you connected to everything that matters in the city.
