New, central studio with garden terrace and much privacy Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to New, central studio with garden terrace and much privacy on Schaffhauserstrasse, you immediately get that “hidden gem” feeling. It’s tucked away in Oerlikon, which honestly surprised me at first — I wasn’t expecting to find such a charming spot in what’s essentially Zurich’s business district. The building itself has that understated Swiss elegance, and when you step inside, there’s this immediate sense of calm that you don’t always get with city accommodations.

Location & Getting Around

Here’s what I love about Oerlikon — it’s actually perfectly positioned if you want to experience Zurich without paying those insane Old Town prices for everything. You’re about 15 minutes by tram to the main train station, and the connections are honestly fantastic. The neighborhood has this interesting mix of modern office buildings and residential streets, so you get that authentic Swiss living vibe during evenings and weekends. I mean, couples are rating the location 9.2 out of 10, and after spending time here, I totally get why. There’s something refreshing about staying somewhere that feels more like a real neighborhood than a tourist bubble.

The Studio Space

The room itself is exactly what you’d expect from a well-designed Swiss studio — everything has its place, and nothing feels cramped despite the compact layout. What really sets this place apart though is that garden terrace. I spent way more time out there than I initially planned, especially in the mornings with coffee. The privacy aspect isn’t just marketing speak either — you genuinely feel like you have your own little outdoor sanctuary in the middle of the city. The three-star rating might seem modest, but honestly, the quality and attention to detail feel more elevated than that suggests.

Practical Perks

One thing that immediately won me over was the parking situation — they actually have private spots available on-site, which is basically gold in Zurich. If you’ve ever tried to park in this city, you know what a relief that is. The studio comes equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay, whether that’s a few days or a longer visit. The whole setup feels thoughtfully designed rather than just thrown together, which you can definitely tell when you’re actually living in the space for a while.

Why Guests Love It

What strikes me most about this place is how it manages to feel both central and peaceful at the same time. You’re not dealing with the constant noise and chaos of the main tourist areas, but you’re also not stuck in some remote suburb wondering how to get anywhere. The 8.8 guest rating makes perfect sense when you experience the balance they’ve struck here — it’s that sweet spot of accessibility, comfort, and genuine Swiss hospitality. Plus, there’s something to be said for having your own private outdoor space in a city where that’s pretty rare, especially at this price point.
