Hotel Townhouse

Hotel Townhouse is a boutique hotel of about 25 rooms at Schützengasse 7, in the Altstadt quarter of Zürich, Switzerland, between Hauptbahnhof and the Bahnhofstrasse. The small scale makes it one of the more intimate options in the city centre, and the address is only minutes from the main station, the Bahnhofstrasse shopping street and the Old Town lanes on the opposite bank of the Limmat. The station's trains, trams and airport link make arrivals simple, while the Swiss National Museum and the riverside paths are within easy walking distance. Accommodation is mid-range, with Single Rooms, Double Rooms, Twin Rooms and Suites, and listed nightly rates of roughly CHF 220 to CHF 380. Amenities include wifi, available breakfast and a bar. With only around 25 rooms, the hotel offers a more personal service than larger chains, and it suits independent travellers, couples and business visitors who prefer a quiet, small property to a convention-style hotel. The street is part of a busy central area, so evenings can be lively close to the station, but the location is hard to beat for convenience: restaurants, department stores and cafés are all within a few minutes on foot. Visitors using Zürich as a base for excursions to Lucerne, the Rhine Falls or the Alps appreciate the short walk to the platforms. Reservations are especially important in the trade-fair season and in summer, when small central hotels fill quickly. Because the room count is limited, requests for specific room types or quiet rooms are best made at booking. The hotel is a practical, well-placed choice for a short city stay in Switzerland.
