  • I wouldnt stay close to the venue in Oerlikon. It's hard to find any good restaurants there or a bar. Public transport from city center to the venue and back are very good and on Friday they will run until 4 in the morning. Trust me, I worked close to the Hallenstadion for 12 years and I go there almost every week to watch Ice Hockey...

    Langstrasse is the redlight district of zurich, rubbish , sometimes crazy people,whores from africa, Romania.
    If you Like that go for it.
    No worries, that was 10yrs ago. Now it's bars, clubs, good restaurants and even hipster places. The Montana is a few blocks away so you wont be in the middle of the nightlife. From there you can explore the city in walking distances. If you stay in oerlikon you have to catch trains except for the concert.
    How about Hotel Leoneck?
    Dont have any experience but location is good, next to good old recordstore with lots of Vinyl. Walking distance to the old town and trainstation. 
    Thank you.

    Nobody staying at the Holiday Inn right across the street from the venue?  Looks like a classy joint.
  • I currently have the Kameha Grand Zurich booked between the airport and the arena. Is it easy to get to the city center from here?

    Thinking of booking either the Renaissance Zürich tower or the Sheraton Zürich Hotel. Are these a good location? They are close by each other closer to the city. 

    Also planning on going to Lucerne July 18-21 before Amsterdam shows. Any advise on Lucerne? Good day trips to do from there? Is there enough to do there for 3 days?

    What are the main attractions and must do’s within Zürich?

    Thanks for any and all advise!

    I was there for work a couple of years ago, and they took me to lunch at an old armory that was converted to a restaurant.
    Nice Swiss traditional food! https://www.zeughauskeller.ch/en/home
  • My wife and I came from the US to catch this Zurich show.  Curious whether there is a particular bar where 10C members/fans will be gathering before the show.
