The Guests' House Hotel Shuttles

A modern business stay on the cusp of West Zürich, The Guests’ House Hotel provides modest rooms in a quiet foothill scenery perfect for the quiet at heart. Each efficiency includes same-room desks and work areas, while quaint upgrades add a small seating arrangement. Also popular for its across-the-street access to the Municipal Hospital Triemli, the hotel provides handicap accessibility as well as close access to the Zürich Triemli Light Rail Station. Transfers to Zürich Airport are also available through on-site shuttles provided by the hotel, whereas those in search of long drives alone can book a private vehicle ranging from intimate sedans perfect for seeing the countryside to super-sized chartered buses that carry up to two-dozen passengers. Professionals interested in getting from point A to point B should consider meet-and-greet services instead, choosing between downtown drop offs via taxis or helpful Swiss tips courtesy of local personal drivers.

Get to know the empty foothill space to the west as much as the trendy gastropubs along the east side’s Kalkbreitestrasse, all while staying balanced in the middle. Start with a refreshing morning hike at Start Schlittelweg, located along the famous road surrounding the small mountain of Uetliberg and offering the beginning of a scenic voyage across hiccuped remnants of the Swiss Alps, not to mention scenic drinks from Teehüsli Hohenstein along the way, a tea house with quiet overlooks of the tributaries below. And for those interested in an outdoor escape closer to the city, head to Allmend I, a quiet 24-hour green space connecting to various urban green belts and bike paths that wind through the Alt-Wiedikon neighborhood’s Sihlcity Shopping Mall, Arena Cinemas and 19th-century Old Botanical Garden. Nearby dinner includes a couple fine dining restaurants at the neighboring Hotel Atlantis, as well as casual pizza delivery from Im Guet.
