Expert reviews

New York Times review:

“Storchen Zurich has 64 luxury rooms, some overlooking the lake. Its location in the heart of the old town means it is within walking distance of much of the city center. “

Fodors review:

“The central location of this airy 660-year-old structure—tucked between the Fraumünster and Kirche St. Peter on the gull-studded bank of the Limmat River—is stunning. Rebuilt in 1939 and renovated in 2016, the modern hotel is impeccable and intimately scaled.”

What guests liked

All you need to know

Storchen Zürich is such a gem right in the heart of Zurich, on the banks of the Limmat. It feels effortlessly elegant yet chill, a boutique-hotel with only 64 rooms, but with a lot of character. The building has been around forever (first mentioned in 1357!), and it blends that rich history with a fresh, modern design that makes you feel totally at home.

But it’s not just a place to sleep, Storchen is a social hub. There’s the sophisticated La Rôtisserie restaurant by the river, the cozy Barchetta lounge under old arches, a cigar bar for relaxing after dinner, and then The Nest, their rooftop bar with killer views over the Limmat and the city.

On top of that, it’s part of The Living Circle group, which means a really thoughtful, nature-connected approach. They source loads of food from their own farms, and sustainability is a real priority.

We loved our stay at Storchen

The hotel has a perfect location - in the city center, right on the river bank. The building is old and beautiful, but the rooms was modernized and comfortable.

The room was a bit small, but I guess that's part of the building's heritage - space is luxury :)

Great stay in Zurich

The location is great 😊 right in the middle of old town facing water. Service was excellent. Unfortunately, it rain every day, so o could not use roof top but on the 1 floor restaurant I had drinks and they were good.Also had the best chocolate cake and I don’t usually order chocolate cakes because I feel they usually are too heavy and too sweet but not this one. It was excellent.

The size of the room was pretty small, the ceiling was low I felt like I was in the attic. The bed was not comfortable. I think it was 2 beds pushed together and was very difficult to sleep because it was definitely uneven.

Best location to stay in Zurich.

Best Location ever. It is located in the center of everything and very convenience. Walkable distance to all attractions. Best view in the city if you stay on the riverside. Staffs are very friendly and helpful.

You will need to call them for doing the bed and changing towel.

The hotel location was perfect. All hotel restaurants were in highest quality. Room service / customer care was excellent. The hotel receptionists were so kind and helpful.

The lift was slow and small. Although the hotel was clean, the building feels old. The bathroom design needed to be changed.
