Hotel Glockenhof  

In Zürich’s commercial heart, a stone’s throw from Bahnhofstrasse, the central railway station and the shore of Lake Zürich. This 4.5-star, family-friendly hotel is within easy walking distance of the Urania Observatory, the Swiss National Museum and Kunsthaus Zürich.

Rooms are air-conditioned and smartly equipped — minibars, flat-screen TVs, Nespresso machines, plus laptop-compatible safes and desks for work. Bathrooms include complimentary toiletries and hair dryers, and daily housekeeping keeps things crisp.

Take a breather on the terrace and in the garden, and stay connected with complimentary wired and wireless internet. Concierge services, babysitting (surcharge), an area shuttle and a roundtrip airport shuttle (surcharge) simplify logistics; self-parking is available for a fee, and the lake is just steps away for crisp morning air.

A 24-hour business center and a computer station back up complimentary wired and wireless internet. The hotel offers 1,356 sq ft (126 m²) of meeting and conference space across two rooms, plus express check-in and check-out.

Two on-site restaurants — including Conrad Restaurant serving international cuisine — plus a coffee shop for snacks and a bar/lounge. Room service runs during limited hours and a complimentary local-cuisine buffet breakfast is served weekdays 7:00–10:00 and weekends 7:00–11:00.
