Widder Hotel, a captivating five-star boutique retreat in Zurich's tranquil Old Town, weaves the timeless charm of nine meticulously restored historic buildings with contemporary elegance, its art-filled halls adorned with works by luminaries like Andy Warhol and Mies van der Rohe, offering a romantic haven steps from Bahnhofstrasse.
The hotel's 49 rooms and suites are individually crafted masterpieces, where luxurious fabrics, sleek furnishings, and handpicked artworks create a vibrant yet intimate ambiance. Air-conditioned serenity, modern video and audio systems, and complimentary soft drinks elevate the experience, while plush bathrooms with premium toiletries offer serene escapes. Expansive windows frame views of Zurich's medieval lanes or the quiet courtyard, with select suites boasting private terraces for savouring the city's gentle pulse.
Dining at Widder Restaurant, awarded 18 GaultMillau points, is a culinary journey through Swiss and international gourmet artistry, where dishes like truffle-laced venison or lake fish with alpine herbs are served in a refined, art-filled dining room. Boucherie August channels Swiss tradition with hearty classics—think creamy Zürcher Geschnetzeltes or sizzling roesti—savoured in a cozy, wood-paneled setting. In summer, the courtyard blooms as an al fresco oasis, offering vibrant plates under open skies. The Widder Bar, a chic enclave, boasts an extensive selection of global spirits and artisanal cocktails, its lively ambiance perfect for lingering over live jazz or quiet conversations.
The fitness centre, equipped with cutting-edge gear, energizes guests, while the 24-hour concierge curates bespoke experiences, from private tours of Lindenhof's historic vistas to strolls along Lake Zurich's shimmering shores. The hotel's art-filled public spaces, adorned with sculptures by Robert Rauschenberg and designs by Le Corbusier, invite quiet reflection or inspired moments, weaving guests into Zurich's cultural tapestry.
Just 200 meters from Bahnhofstrasse and a 10-minute walk from Zurich Main Train Station and Lake Zurich, Widder Hotel lies 12 kilometers from Zurich International Airport, offering seamless access to St. Peterskirche, the Kunsthaus Zurich, and the Swiss National Museum, all framed by the city's vibrant heart.
