Detailed Reviews
We had some business to do in the city and remembered this hotel from an earlier visit. We booked a standard room, which has a garden view and were not disappointed. The room was clean and we felt comfortable - it even had a yoga mat- breakfast was delicious and the area is quiet and yet, with tram or car you are connected to the city in 15-20 minutes.

Absolutely loved staying here for my recent work trip.
Very close to public transport and being at the end of the tram line meant it was always easy to remember where to get off.
Beautiful views to lake Zurich and into main city.
Quiet area which would be well suited to business or families I imagine.
Rooms are big enough and have heating to keep you toasty after those long cold walks up the hill and drinks out on the terrace

We stayed for one night during the week and enjoyed the stay at the hotel. Car parking was included in the rate as was WiFi and breakfast.
Breakfast was very good as well and those who travel by public transport can walk to the tram that then connects the hotel to downtown Zurich.

Be careful booking this hotel. Most of the rooms do not have air conditioner. They are extremely hot. The rooms on -1 floor are on the ground. Impossible to open a balcony or a window due to mosquitoes amount. The rooms with air conditioner - the a/c is a joke and room smells from the previous guests with pets. Very unpleasant experience. The only good thing is a view from the terrace in the restaurant and the breakfast.

The Fonduestübli is simply charming and serves excellent Cheese Fondues in all variations. The athmosphere is typically Swiss , rural and very cosy. Ahmed is a Great Host and really looking well after you. Simply a great experience all in all. It belongs to the Sorell Hotel Zürichberg which is as well a great hotel above Zürich with a beautiful view, modern rooms and en excellent service.

Our September stay was our second visit to Zurichberg and our fifth visit to a Sorrell property. Switzerland and Zurich in particular are very expensive even with the current favorable exchange rate. So first, I want give high marks to Zurichberg for good value. Sorrell transformed a unique property into a very attractive hotel with super views, a restaurant with an excellent menu and unique rooms, some with lake views. Value seems to be a theme for Sorrell.
To be fair, we had an issue at their nearby Rigiblick property in 2021. Due to COVID, that property went to an automated mode meaning no staff. Everything done remotely. Room entry, garage exit, etc. all done by text and scannable bar coding. It didn't work. Out of frustration, we asked to be moved to Zurichberg. On arrival a short time later the property manager and front desk manager were waiting. After apologizing, the front desk manager assigned our room but with regrets could not assign the suite upgrade he promised due to a change in a check out date.
That story relates to our 2022 return to Zurichberg because the same front desk manager remembered us when he saw our reservation and made sure we received the upgrade.. one year later. A small thing maybe, but it shows important attention to details.
To me, any decline in legendary Swiss hospitality standards would be akin to a decline in civilization itself! So Zurichberg saved everything.
We recommend the Sorrell group and look forward to returning.

We had booked way in advance 2 connected rooms for the kids and us. When we arrived, we had the bad surprise to discover that our rooms had been allocated to another family. They could only propose one small room or 2 rooms not side by side which was not an option with two todlers. Not only they tried to deny that we had booked connecting rooms (even if we had received the hotel confirmation) but the never appologized which is unacceptable. I will never come back to this hotel and even fewer recommend it to my friends.

we went September 2021, the site did not allow me to put correct date. it was a very lovely hotel, not luxury, but comfortable, with very nice views scenic , up on a hill. Very nice neighborhood with forests and vineyards.
The restaurant was in a wonderful o location but the food and service we felt was very poor. they should get a new chef or management. The inside cafeteria for breakfast was very good..

Attended business meeting in late May. Quirky hotel just outside the city with fantastic views of the lake and snow capped mountains in the background. The restaurant was very good, we enjoyed everything that we ate. The room was small and had only a twin bed rather than a full double, very unusual to see this these days. 4* due to small room, small bed and lack of pool area but the hotel doesn’t market itself as anything more. Would happily return.

The view, the building, the service, the people - the combination of all makes it a perfect fit. I always book a room in that hotel when we have friends and family over, as this is truly the best hotel I know in Zurich - Switzerland. You are in the city in no-time, but benefit from the calm atmosphere on top of a mountain. You wake up to a breathtaking view across the lake and the service is outstanding. Even when it is your first stay, the reception welcomes you the same way as you have been there a thousand times.
My parents are very picky when it comes to luxury hotels, but they love to stay at the Hotel Zurichberg.
