Expert reviews
“Kameha Grand Zürich is a wild and witty antidote to its industrial Glattpark surroundings. Don’t be fooled by its boxy, glass-and-steel exterior — once you step inside the unique property, you’ll be warmly welcomed by managing directors Benedikt Theisen and Stefan Wurm and their helpful team.”
“Shaking up a conservative hotel scene, the Grand Kameha astonishes, courtesy of interiors by Marcel Wanders. Giant cow bells hang in the lobby, door handles look like safe vaults and doors like slabs of chocolate. There are 245 rooms and it’s near the airport.”

All you need to know
The U.S based company, tecArchitecture, has constructed a structure as monumental as its predecessor with the interior design once again handled by Marcel Wanders who has not lost his touch.
Despite the strong presence of Swiss cultural elements and design references, Wanders’ personal influence unmistakably pervades each area. Luckily for all parties involved, Wanders, or Mr. Zeitgeist as he is known, continues to embrace his signature neo-baroque aesthetic which remains in vogue.
The emphasis on design in this case is not just a marketing strategy. The main downfall of most luxury business hotels is the predictability that comes hand in hand with their reliability.
However, the Kameha Grand is different, it’s full of unexpected elements – not referring to the service, bedding or shower – but rather teems with subtle visual humor.
The hotel is situated a six-minute car journey away from Zurich Airport, a 15-minute drive from Zurich’s historic city center, and ten minutes by car from the Glatt Shopping Center.

Comfortable and wide room with modern design
Nice welcome, very nice design and space in the room. We loved the idea to leave the fridge empty and give a bottle of water as complementary. The room soundproofing was very good. At the reception, they helped us and let us do the check-in earlier which was very useful.
The curtains had some stains and the wooden part of the bed board wasn't clean. We didn't have the hairdryer in the room and we didn't receive an extra towel for our kid (the cleaner gave us a small towel). The fire alarm rang at 1 in the morning which was not so relaxing, but that's not related to the service that the hotel gave us which was very nice.

as we have business across the street it’s perfect for a night but otherwise not a must.
the rooms are cool and due to current situation with low international travel the rates are good
F&B and Bar concept made absolutely no sense to us. you need to order at the reception bc bar is closed but they serve you at the bar. it takes ages.

normal
it was clean, some stuff are very friendly.
there were one receptionist with short orange hair was so rude to us, for example we told her we want a bigger room she said you only want something for free and when we ask for a face mask she said next time bring your own don’t just ask for it plus she doesn’t smile at all.

The bar wasn't open so we were told to order room service and have it delivered in the closed bar if we wanted to sit there.

If you enjoy spending ~ $300 on a room where you stand in your shower filth this is for you: BAD
If you enjoy showering in a stand up shower that does not drain and leaks into the bathroom floors this place is for you! (A five-minute shower took over an hour to enable drainage each time water was turned on). But at least there were enough towels to spend your relaxing time soaking up all the water leakage from the base of the shower: what a waste!

Below the standards of cleanliness and hospitality that you might expect for a 4* business hotel
I stayed here for 1 night during a business trip in March 2024, the hotel was recommended by my client due to its location. Once you find the entry (which is located on the side of the building), I was greeted by a courteous and friendly staff. The overall design and installation of the hotel made me smile at several occasions, there are many "gadgets" and it would appear that most rooms are designed according to a specific theme (mine was a "bank safe"). Lots of plugs ... but the desk is too small (see below). Breakfast was very good, also the restaurant on-site had a good tartar for a reasonable price. Personnel, however, seems to have a "varying degree" of attention to clients.
- The hotel claims to be a "business hotel" but the desk in my room could barely fit my (small) laptop and a sheet of paper. Overall, the room was dark (dark brown furniture, dark grey walls). Some furniture takes up a lot of space without being useful. - There were well-visible scratches on the wall. The blinds on 2/3 of my windows were broken and could not be moved up or down. The windows have not been cleaned in a very long time (see photo) and there was even a layer of dust in the wardrobe (see photo ... yes it's dark). - When I showed these two photos a few minutes later at the reception, her only reaction was a robotic "we are very sorry for this", with a tone that was not surprised at all. No excuse, no proposal how this could be fixed, no action - hence my downvote in the "staff" rating. This is seriously below the standard that I expect for a 4**** hotel. I have seen 3*** with better rooms and a better grasp of hospitality.

a short break
The employee are so friendly and helpful. Especially the Greek friend took great care of us. We thank him.
Food quality could be better. and spa hours could have been longer.

Low value for money, but friendly staff and good breakfast.
Room space, breakfast, shower, free bottle of water.
The bed matrass was banana shaped. High at the head side and feet side, low in the middle. The instant coffee in the room is just not what you expect in a hotel like this.

Fabulous
Very beautiful and comfortable room. The staff were very helpful and friendly.
The restaurant and bar both close too early in my opinion. Especially since with the hotel's location there are not too many other choices if you arrive in the evening.
