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.

Cute, quiet hotel. Perfect for a romantic mini-break.

Really lovely, stylish little hotel. We loved staying here! The desk staff were super friendly and the room was simple, clean and really quiet. It is about a 20min walk from the centre of town but there are buses, trams and trains nearby if your legs get tired. Easy to get to the Uetilberg look-out point and trendy Industrial Quarter. Also a yoga studio on-site and a fabulous Thai restaurant that is also recommended. Good value in an expensive city!

Nothing, would definitely stay here again.

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.

there wasn't something in particular that was unpleasant the rooms and the atmosphere did not give us a pleasant time as other hotels in Germany it was really hot and there is NO airconditioner which made it very difficult to sleep and get some rest

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.

I absolutely loved this hotel! Of course traveling during a pandemic is challenging but the staff were exceptional and made the trip worth the preparations. The restaurant was also great for meals and drinks with friends.

There was some construction out side the hotel that I could have done without. That said, it was no fault of the venue. In that same spirit, I wanted to spend more time in the common areas; I will definitely return next summer.
