4-star historic hotel on Zurich's Bahnhofstrasse, family-run since 1889

Location

Hotel St.Gotthard stands directly on Bahnhofstrasse, Zurich's main shopping street. The main railway station is 100 meters away, with a direct train connection to Zurich Airport. Lake Zurich is reachable in a 10-minute walk, and the Swiss National Museum and Urania Observatory are nearby.

Rooms

The hotel offers 138 air-conditioned rooms and suites, including Top View rooms with private balconies overlooking Bahnhofstrasse. Allergy-free and soundproof rooms are available. Each room has a private bathroom, flat-screen TV, and tea-and-coffee-making facilities.

Dining

Three on-site restaurants include the Lobster and Oyster Bar, established in 1935, serving classic French cuisine. The Lobby Restaurant offers international dishes with live piano music, while Piazzetta has a summer terrace overlooking Bahnhofstrasse. The Manzoni Bar serves Italian coffee and light snacks.

Wellness & Activities

The fitness center is equipped with high-tech Technogym equipment. Guests can book massages and use the sauna. The hotel organizes themed dinner nights and tours about local culture.

Business & Family

Meeting and event facilities accommodate up to 40 attendees, with a business center and fax/photocopying services. Family-friendly amenities include family rooms and a 24-hour front desk. Pets are allowed, and the hotel offers a shuttle service and luggage storage.

Highlights

Location: 100 m from Zurich main station, on Bahnhofstrasse

Rooms: 138 rooms, Top View rooms with balcony

Dining: Lobster and Oyster Bar since 1935

Wellness: Technogym fitness centre, sauna, massage

Business: Meeting space for 40, 24-hour front desk

“It strikes me as a place steeped in Zurich's history, a family-owned establishment since 1889 that has clearly seen its share of significant moments. I imagine the Lobster Bar, a renowned culinary spot, makes for an exceptional experience, while its location-mere steps from the main train station-is hard to beat. From what I gather, this hotel could easily serve as both a luxurious city escape and a convenient hub for business.”

Hotel St Gotthard enjoys a fantastic location right next to Zurich's main train station (Zürich HB) and the Bahnhofstrasse shopping district, making it easy to explore the city. Guests often appreciate the spacious rooms, some with views overlooking the Bahnhofstrasse. The breakfast is generally considered excellent, featuring a variety of Swiss cheeses and breads; however, a few guests have noted that the style of the hotel is a bit old.

loud ventilation poor check-in
The check-in process was not smooth. It seemed like the staff didn't acknowledge my online check-in. A Loud noise from the ventilation kept me awake for some time. Moving to another room was suggested at midnight. There was no apology or acknowledgement of the inconvenience at checkout. This was frustrating given the room's cost.
