Finding a hotel (that&#8217;s affordable) isn&#8217;t too hard, but it has taken some time &#8212; talking with friends, reading books, and checking into Web sites.  I started with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fodors.com\/miniguides\/mgresults.cfm?destination=zurich@169\">Fodor&#8217;s guide to Zurich <\/a> to get an overview of the city and some hotel options. They have, what seems to me to be a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fodors.com\/miniguides\/mgresults.cfm?destination=zurich@169&amp;cur_section=lod\"> good listing and rating of hotels<\/a>. Some of the entries have a URL for a hotel, but others don&#8217;t. Searching on the name using Google sometimes brings a link to a site for the hotel, but also brings up a number of options for making reservations. I really don&#8217;t like most of them, because they&#8217;re too general, and, franky, too commercial for my liking.<\/p>\n<p>Lynn picked the place we&#8217;ll stay when we leave &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.limmatblick.ch\/\">Limmatblick<\/a>. It looks interesting, has a good location downtown, and seems to be fascinated with Dada. I picked the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.limmathof.com\/\">Limmathof<\/a>. It turns out it is very near the other hotel, and unlike the Limamtblick, it&#8217;s listed in Fodor&#8217;s Guide. Strangely enough, some friends who have been to Zurich several times suggested we try that place, and I had written for reservations just that afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>When we leave we&#8217;ll be there for at least one night of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lonelyplanet.com\/destinations\/europe\/zurich\/facts.htm\">Z\u00c3\u00bcri F\u00c3\u00a4scht<\/a> mentioned at the Lonely Plant site. it looks like it&#8217;s a big festival with fireworks to boot.
