Widder Hotel

8 Best Hotels in Zurich, Where Quiet Luxury Rules Supreme | Condé Nast Traveler

"For something intimate, check into this five-star sanctuary tucked within Zurich’s Old Town. Its cobblestoned setting puts you within strolling distance of the Kunsthaus and the city’s best boutiques, yet the 49 individually designed rooms and suites feel worlds away from the bustle outside. While it is a boutique, it's spread across five historic buildings, suggesting something grander. Indeed, no matter how you’ve found yourself here, whether business or pleasure, the attention to detail at this Two-Key Michelin stay is exquisite. Some rooms even have floor sensors that turn on nightlights. All rooms are distinctive, and there’s really not one that wouldn’t make for a marvellous retreat, although I do love the Duplex Junior Suite with the bed nestled under the staircase for the ultimate cozy factor. Come evening, the buzz returns—especially downstairs at the Widder Bar, where the bartenders treat their mocktails with the same reverence as their martinis." - Stacey Lastoe

Where to Eat, Stay, and Play in Zurich, Switzerland

"Widder Hotel is a five-star property located in Old Town, Zurich. With just 35 guest rooms and 14 suites, it offers an intimate and serene stay. The Widder Bar is known for its signature mocktails and cocktails."

"Built on the site of Roman and Celtic ruins, the unassuming 5-star Widder Hotel comprises nine medieval townhouses that were painstakingly renovated over a 10-year period by Swiss architect Tilla Theus. The results are jaw-dropping, from the unusual structures such as circular rooms and passages that refer architecturally to a Roman well uncovered during construction, to the mix of antiques and modern designer furnishings (Eames, Frank Lloyd Wright) in the rooms. Alongside the 35 standard rooms, 14 suites also mix the old with the new, featuring works of art by the likes of Robert Rauschenberg and Andy Warhol, contemporary design classics by Le Corbusier and Mies van der Rohe, and original medieval frescoes, exposed-beam ceilings, and brick or stone walls. All rooms are equipped with a TV, Quadriga communication system, and two telephones. Widder Hotel also features three great restaurants, a bar with more than 1,000 spirits, and a cozy garden restaurant and lounge open in the warmer months."
