2 Best Hotels in Kreis 5, Zürich

This youthful hotel in the heart of trendy Züri-West is awash with color and original design elements, and although the address screams hip-appeal, the rooms are fresh and quiet, with smooth, flowing lines and a subtle palette. Behind the refreshment–breakfast area there is even a small park with a playground. Even with a clear design goal, Swiss practicality is not forgotten; the desks provide plenty of space to work, and you are provided with a stylish bag to borrow for city shopping trips. You can even hire one of two Minis to take a spin around the city, and there's a sauna with a view for kicking back at the end of the day. 

Lording over town, this stark hotel tower offers rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows, dark-wood floors, separate shower areas, and neutral color schemes with purple accents. Walls are adorned with contemporary art that speaks to the neighborhood's industrial past. Touch-screen monitors in the lobby can direct you to local attractions. A tram station offers direct access to the city's main train station.
