B2 Boutique Hotel, Zurich
Expert reviews
“Away from the city centre (but next door to Google’s European headquarters), this hip boutique hotel in a renovated brewery abounds in seductive features, including a stupendous rooftop thermal pool”
“Perched on a hill, and ten minutes by tram from the city center, this boldly designed and very happening hotel and spa is inside a former brewery, a striking building of whitewashed walls and brick chimneys.”
Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Zurich.
“An industrial chic hotel in an imposing brewery with an edgy aesthetic offset by warm colours and oak fittings. B2 boasts a perch above Zurich, where views are best enjoyed from the hot rooftop pool with jets.”

All you need to know
Formerly known as the Hurlimann Brewery, B2 Boutique Hotel allows you to sleep where beer used to be brewed. B2 stands for “bookmark and boutique,” which is a small group of independent urban hotels that create modern accommodations within historic buildings. B2 Boutique Hotel is the perfect blend of historical and contemporary. High arched windows and vaulted ceilings combine perfectly with modern design, clean lines, and unique furniture. Beautiful white linens, eclectic light fixtures, and flat-screen TVs create stylish, comfortable rooms.
While B2’s guest rooms are top-notch, the real highlight of this hotel is its common spaces, such as the library lounge and spa. The Thermal Bath & Spa Zurich, the hotel spa, is located in the former barrel filling wing of the brewery. Brick walls, stone features, and vaulted cellars give the spa a historic and serene environment. The rooftop pool, thermal bath, and Roman-Irish spa ritual are just a few of this section’s amenities. B2’s Wine Library is one of the most impressive and elegant spaces in Zurich. With extra-tall ceilings, chandeliers constructed from bottle holders, and entire walls of books, this is an enchanting setting to order a drink or catch up on some work.
B2 Hotel and Spa is about a ten-minute stroll from Bahnhof Zurich Enge railway station, providing easy access to the rest of the city. This hotel is located in the quaint, laid-back neighborhood of Enge, which is about 2.6 kilometers from the Kunsthaus Zurich Museum.

Amazing, Don't Miss It!
This is the best hotel I have ever stayed in, including when I was a travel agent for 10 years and went on familiarization trips all over the world. The staff was absolutely exceptional and made us feel welcomed and cared for, not like this is a job for them, but actually like they enjoyed us being there. I can't say enough about the subterranean Roman-Irish spa, you have to experience it yourself, words don't do it justice. The roof-top heated pool was as wonderful as you can imagine it would be. The rooms was clean, modern yet cozy. Dinner was delicious, breakfast was great. Our waiter for dinner was charming. The renovation to merge the historic brewery with the needs of a modern hotel was utterly well-done. I can't say enough about this hotel and the staff. It's reason enough to go to Zurich and an absolute no-brainer to stay here if you are in Zurich anyway.

Friendly staff, great location, easy access to thermal bath & spa. Maybe the best hotel in Zurich, for families with children to relax. Definitely thinking to re-visit..

I would visit this hotel again in a heartbeat.
The spa is incredible and a must must!! Perfect to have direct access from the hotel. The hotel lobby is stunning and perfect to sit any time of the day, evenings are most special! The breakfast is healthy, simple and delicious omelettes! The deluxe rooms ar delightful, loved the open shower concept! Large spacious and lots of natural light. Nice distance from the city and the views from the rooftop pool are totally worth it!
Nothing - loved everything!

Will exceed your expectations xx
The staff are insanely friendly knowledgeable and genuinely nice!
Our bath plug was broken and couldn't be replaced, so subsequently had to shower baby at the bottom of the shower where I found quite a lot of mold spots......which can easily be bleached and wiped away when I tried. Although a good bleach will keep from returning. Saying that I'd stay again, so that says a lot. besides above the rooms were truly amazing and beautifully & thoughtfully designed. They arranged a baby cot and even a baby towel which was sweet, oh amazing Nespresso machine (the good one) and lovely complimentary drinks in the fridge!! The hotel food is stunning!!! And breakfast is just wonderful and I have high standards! Eggs to order are divine....but now I will have other scrambled eggs to compare to so ruined me!!! Amazing chef!!

Hotel staff made the experience much better
Beautiful hotel in a convenient location in the google campus but close to Wiedikon
My first room was a handicapped room which I asked to change and got a single bed room instead that had some loud noises. After talking to front desk i got another room the next day that was what i had booked and was perfect.

A relaxing stay in a peaceful haven
Staying at B2 was a great experience. The hotel is beautiful. The room very comfortable and the staff absolutely amazing and friendly. The spa area is excellent and the rooftop pool is great. Both are easily accessible from the room using the lift. Also, dining in the library restaurant was memorable. The food was truly outstanding. It takes about 15 minutes to walk down the river. The city centre is a longer walk.

Arrived for a one night stop over in Zurich to enjoy the spa. Staff held our bags while we explored Zurich untill later
Beautiful interior spaces and rooms, connection to spa is excellent to decompress after a day of traveling.

Exquisite Hotel
Exquisite room, tall ceilings, two large windows, and great light, very airy, spacious and very clean. The restaurant room is beautiful Breakfast was included and very good, with eggs/omelettes made fresh on order, and a buffet of fresh bread, cheese, fruit etc.(the usual) Dinner was ok, menu a bit bare. Really lovely staff. Valet parking is on site (extra cost). Access to the spa a is very easy (extra cost).
Nothing, this hotel is perfect. Good to know: The spa/pool areas are independent from the hotel, and don't offer the same level of service. It is open to the public, and was way too busy (and quite rowdy!) when we went - we didn't enjoy the experience as a wellbeing escape at all.

Fabulous hotel, lovely place and wonderful people.
Beautiful hotel in a great location, staff extremely friendly with nothing too much trouble. It was spotlessly clean and had a lovely calming atmosphere. Great choices at the continental breakfast. The location was perfect with in good walking distance of the city, old Zurich and the fantastic lake. Would definitely recommend and would not hesitate to stay there again.
There was nothing to not like about this hotel.

Planning to return
The property was unique, had wonderful amenities, and within an easy walk of the train station. The most impressive part was the staff. The front desk staff and servers at the restaurant were exceptional in their kindness and professionalism.

Can’t Recommend this Highly Enough
We loved our experience at this hotel. We stayed here for 1 night after we flew in on an overnight flight from the US. My friend and I arrived on different flights, so the spa was wonderful to hang out in while I waited for her and our room to be ready. The infinity pool overlooking the city at the spa was the best view we had of the city our whole trip! Also, the food in the spa was surprisingly reasonable cost-wise. The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful and provided a personalized experience. We had drinks and dessert in the restaurant surrounded by all the books and it was a great evening. We loved our time at this hotel and would return in a heartbeat.
The one draw back was the hotel is a little further away from the city center and train station, which comes with the territory to have the great city views at the spa. It was an 8 minute walk to the nearest public transit train station and then 2 stops to downtown, so all in all not a bad location.
