Mama Shelter Zürich

Mama Shelter Zürich is a four-star design hotel of about 178 rooms at Schulstrasse 44, in the Oerlikon district of Zürich, Switzerland, close to Oerlikon station and Messe Zürich. Oerlikon, in the north of the city, is a former industrial area that has become a business, education and events district, and the station is a major rail and S-Bahn hub with quick connections to the main station and Zürich Airport. The Messe Zürich exhibition grounds and the Hallenstadion arena are nearby, which makes the hotel particularly handy for trade-fair visitors, concert-goers and business travellers. The hotel belongs to a French design-hotel brand known for playful interiors and a social, lively atmosphere, and it is aimed at younger travellers, groups and guests who prefer an energetic setting to a formal one. Room types include Single Rooms, Double Rooms, Twin Rooms and Suites, with listed nightly rates of roughly CHF 150 to CHF 280 that sit below those of the city centre. Amenities include wifi, available breakfast, a bar and a restaurant, and the on-site dining and bar areas serve as a gathering point for guests and locals alike. Oerlikon itself offers a range of restaurants, cafés and shops, and the Oerliker Park gives some green space. Visitors wishing to see the Old Town and the lake should plan on a short train or tram ride south, since the hotel is outside the historic core. The district is quieter at night than the centre but busier during major events, when rooms in the area book out. Reserving early for trade fairs, concerts and the summer months is sensible. The property provides a modern, value-oriented base for visitors to Zürich.
