5-Star Boutique Hotel

The former building was constructed in 1895 by the Zurich architects Dorer &Füchslin as part of a group of three buildings. Originally, all three buildings presented themselves as a cohesive, U-shaped Neo-Renaissance block-edge development made of exposed brick. In 1955, the corner building underwent significant alterations, during which the ground floor was glazed, and the façade details were plastered over.

The Hotel, no longer meeting modern standards, will be transformed into a boutique hotel blending local heritage with modern luxury. The building will be gutted and rebuilt with expanded layouts inspired by historical floor plans. The simplified façade will be restored in a historic style with 3D-printedelements. Water-inspired features, including glass bricks on the ground floor, will evoke the lake’s reflective qualities. A restored atrium, spanning all floors, will feature cascading light installations and reflective materials, creating a waterfall effect. Guests will access rooms via a striking atrium elevator for a unique arrival experience.

The new boutique hotel aims to make guests feel at home with authentic architecture and curated design highlights. The interior blends materials, art, and furniture into a cohesive masterpiece that unites luxury, tradition, and modern design. Guests will enjoy a gourmet restaurant, a bar, and a wine-tasting area on the ground floor. The rooftop terrace offers stunning city and lake views, while the spa and fitness area occupy the first floor. The hotel includes various rooms and suites, highlighted by a business suite with a library, fireplace, wine bar, and dining room that doubles as a conference space.
