Renaissance Hotels welcomes the newest gem in its global portfolio, the 300-room Renaissance Zurich Tower Hotel under a franchise agreement with SV Group. Located in the spectacular new Mobimo Tower in Zurich West, one of Zurich’s most fashionable neighbourhoods, the Renaissance Zurich Tower Hotel is housed in a 24-story tower offering panoramic views of Zurich. The hotel is the third Renaissance Hotel in Switzerland, following the recent opening of the Renaissance Lucerne Hotel.

The Renaissance Zurich Tower Hotel was designed by Claudio Carbone and the design offers nods to its locale in district five with unique graffiti-inspired artwork leading guests through the history of the Zurich West and its industrial roots. Offering sweeping views of Zurich, each guestroom features the best in Swiss craftsmanship including warm oak furnishings and plush bedding.

The hotel’s Equinox Restaurant is a modern steakhouse offering expertly prepared, classic steakhouse fare. For a more casual experience, guests can choose from either Lucid, the hotel’s American-style bar or Vivid, a unique tapas-style bar. To work up a sweat after indulging, the 15th floor of the hotel boasts a state-of-the art fitness center and wellness zone offers sweeping views of Zurich.

For social events and meetings, the hotel boasts over 1000 square meters of meeting space, including a terrace lounge.
