Expert reviews

Frommers review:

“This sleek boutique hotel is a hidden gem in a quiet but trendy part of town, and it’s just five minutes by tram from the city center. The former industrial building it’s in has an elegant grey-blue facade; the interiors exude calm through minimalist decor, pure lines, and neutral color schemes that were created by the Swiss artist Jean Pfaff.”

Telegraph review:

“Greulich is Zurich’s original design hotel. It has a crisp, arty aesthetic, daily yoga classes overlooking a grove of silver birches and a cosy ‘living room’ that draws in the local community. It is set in the hip Langstrasse district.”

What guests liked

All you need to know

While Zürich is generally recognized for its robust banking industry and mature charm, District Four shatters these conventional views. This region, along with the adjacent Langstrasse – previously known for its illicit activities, now brims with an array of nightclubs and fashion stores rather than corporate spaces and vaults.

It might not be a precise match for places like Prenzlauer Berg or Berlin-Mitte, but it’s indeed close in spirit. Choosing to stay in this locale means opting for modern, cozy lodgings such as Greulich Design and Lifestyle Hotel, where you meet interesting people and give in to a few indulgences.

Undoubtedly, a good night’s rest is part of the package. The serene residential district is conveniently distant from the hustle and bustle, providing an easy retreat when the night draws to a close. The hotel building itself narrates the district’s history on a smaller scale.

What used to be a factory in the Seventies has been meticulously transformed into a prime example of a modern minimalist boutique. It features tranquil minimalist guest rooms and a central courtyard adorned with birch trees, reminiscent of a Swiss version of a Japanese Zen garden. The rooms make excellent use of the abundant natural light with their high ceilings.

Pretty Hard to Top this one for Zurich

Lovely room, the staff is amazing. I felt like I was part of something special. The location is spectacular. One of those hotel experiences that you would absolutely never forget.

There is some confusion when you get there. Is it a restaurant? Is it a hotel? When you check in, you check into the restaurant...kind of weird.

Great experience in Zurich

If you're planning a trip to Zurich and looking for a comfortable and stylish stay, the Greulich Design Hotel is an excellent choice! We spent a few nights at this hotel recently, and I must say I was thoroughly impressed. The hotel is situated in a fantastic spot, with easy access to all the city has to offer. The hotel is also conveniently located near Tram / Bus Stops, making it easy to explore the city. Our room itself  was another highlight, It was beautifully designed and super clean, the bed was comfortable, the bathroom was clean and modern. Greulich offers a wide range of fresh and healthy options available at breakfast. From freshly baked bread & Pastries to a selected range of cheese and vegetarian options. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and helpful advice about what to see and do in Zurich. Overall, I can't recommend this Hotel highly enough

Very clean and modern

Location was good but a little further out of town then we thought but easy to find and easy to reach the center. Good value for money. Friendly and polite staff. Very clean and modern rooms with everything you need.

Nothing really apart from the pillows were very soft which isn't for me but not a bad thing for other people.

Very good

People on duties are wonderful, outside and inside design of the hotel and room (except the bathroom), yard, garden, restaurant, breakfast are great! Cozy and nice!

The design of the room is not as comfortable as it is beautiful - the shower is small and the water goes across the floor from the shower to the toilet, it does not dry out, the open space for the bath is also not a very convenient solution, it's cold when you leave after a shower, you can't hang towels and a bathrobe on a hanger or hooks they just don't exist! No fridge or minibar and no coffee machine. These are all very small, but necessary little things for 100% comfort.

Expensive

The location is great for work. It's a calm hotel with relaxing open outdoor spaces. The staff is very friendly and welcoming.

The ratio of value for money for those particular dates was extremely low. I am not sure there is any way to justify why it was so expensive per night. It was only booked because I needed a place to stay on those particular dates.
