The hype
Travelers love the design and the incredible gym access, but often wish it was closer to the lake or city center.

დაჯავშენე ეს თუ You want a stylish, high-energy base with a killer gym and direct mall access, and you don't mind taking a tram to the Old Town.
რატომ უყვართ ხოლმე
- Direct access to the massive Fitnesspark Sihlcity (included in rate)
- Quirky 'Dada-inspired' interiors that feel less sterile than typical Swiss business hotels
- The 'Signature' rooms come with kitchenettes, perfect for longer stays
სწრაფი გადახედვა: A visually loud, fun hotel stuck inside a shopping mall complex—great for convenience and fitness, less so for charming cobblestone views.
გადამოწმებული @daydrooler-ის მიერ: I fell in love with the eclectic vibe here. It used to be a paper mill, so the character is insane. The tram stop right outside made exploring Zurich a breeze, and ending the day by that open fireplace was pure magic. Definitely not your average boring hotel.

Reality check
The 'river view' is nice, but the 'mall view' is exactly what it sounds like—looking at a concrete shopping complex.
- You are a fitness junkie (the gym access is world-class)
- You appreciate bold, maximalist design over beige luxury
- You are in Zurich for business and need a coworking space (Office LAB is nearby)

“I would love to request a room on a high floor facing the Sihl river, away from the lobby bar noise. If available, a Superior Signature room would be ideal.”
ხშირი კითხვები და დამალული რჩევები
ყველაფერი, რაც ნამდვილად უნდა იცოდე ჯავშნამდე.
Is the pool included?
You get free access to Fitnesspark Sihlcity, which has a large wellness/spa area (saunas, steam baths). Note: It does NOT have a lap pool, just a relaxation/spa pool.
How far is the Old Town?
It's not walkable (30+ mins). You'll need to take Tram 13 or 5, which takes about 10-15 minutes.
Is there parking?
Yes, in the Sihlcity mall garage. It costs ~CHF 35/day. Follow signs for 'Hotel' or 'Sihlcity' carefully.
Is it pet friendly?
Yes, pets are allowed for a fee of around CHF 35 per night.
Does the room have AC?
Yes, all rooms are air-conditioned, which is a huge plus in Zurich summers.
Is breakfast worth it?
It's a decent buffet with local quality, but at ~CHF 30+, you might find better value at a bakery in the mall.
შიდა რჩევები
- ✨
Grab a free 'Desiknio' e-bike from the hotel to explore the city—it's the best way to get to the lake.
- ✨
The 'Office LAB' coworking space nearby is free for hotel guests—ask the front desk for access.
- ✨
Don't miss the 'Rote Fabrik' cultural center nearby for a drink by the lake—it's a local favorite and very un-touristy.
5 რამ, რაც უნდა იცოდე სანამ წახვალ
💡The 'Dada' art theme includes some genuinely weird collage art in the rooms.
💡The bathroom layout in some rooms is 'open concept'—make sure you're comfortable with your roommate.
💡You are literally sleeping in a former paper mill, though the renovation hides most industrial grit.
💡The hotel bar is a legitimate nightlife spot for locals, not just a sad hotel lobby.
💡Room service is powered by the LouLou restaurant, so the food is actually restaurant-quality.
