Cheap hotels near Zurich Train Station in Zurich, Switzerland
Zurich’s main train station, its "Hauptbahnhof," is a very busy place, serving some 2,000 trains (and about 350,000 passengers) a day. It’s located just north of the Bahnhofstrasse lending easy access to all major city sights.
The structure’s main hall, which is marked by an impressive archway, dates to 1870.

The train station also has its own underground shopping mall with more than 200 stores.
