Hotel Swiss Night by Fassbind
Zurich
At a glance
Swiss Night by Fassbind is a three-star hotel at Steinwiesstrasse 8 in Zurich, set in a quiet residential district close to the Kunsthaus. The lake, Bellevue, Stadelhofen, the Opera House and the old town area of Niederdorf are all within walking distance, giving the hotel a practical base for museum visits, performances, shopping and city exploring.
The hotel occupies a historic building that has been renovated for contemporary stays. Its character comes from a playful Swiss design concept influenced by Bernese Oberland paper-cut art and traditional Swiss milk and cow imagery. The result is a themed but comfortable interior rather than a formal or minimalist hotel style. The property suits travellers looking for a calm setting with a clear sense of place, as well as business guests needing a quiet base near central attractions.
Guest accommodation consists of bright, non-smoking rooms with sound-insulated windows and doors. Standard rooms are on the ground floor, while superior rooms are on higher floors and offer a quieter position. Room facilities include free Wi-Fi, individually adjustable air conditioning and heating, a large television with international channels, a kettle with tea and coffee, a hairdryer, an iron and ironing board, a telephone and a minibar. New bathrooms feature showers, and most have natural daylight. Electrical sockets support European, US, British and Asian connections.
Food and drink are available in a simple hotel format. An honesty bar provides small snacks, while room service is also offered. The hotel does not present itself as a destination restaurant, making it more suited to guests who want convenient refreshments alongside accommodation. A complimentary fitness room provides an additional facility for maintaining a routine during a stay. Wheelchair access, air conditioning, free Wi-Fi and on-site parking are among the listed services, with parking available for a charge and without advance reservation.
The atmosphere combines residential quiet with easy access to cultural and waterfront landmarks. The hotel works particularly well for solo travellers, couples, museum visitors and business guests who value a distinctive Swiss setting, comfortable rooms and a location that keeps major city sights within reach.
