Mercure Zurich City

Mercure Zurich City is a four-star hotel in Altstetten, with a modern style, practical facilities and a location well connected to the city centre by public transport. The hotel suits leisure travellers, families, business guests and visitors attending events at the nearby Swiss Life Arena.

Accommodation ranges from compact Comfort rooms with a double bed or twin beds to larger Superior rooms. The interiors are designed for straightforward urban stays, with city views listed across the room categories. An accessible accommodation option is also available.

Dining begins with a rich buffet breakfast, while the DELI restaurant and bar provide the main evening food and drink setting. A hotel mini-market offers snacks around the clock, which adds flexibility for late arrivals or guests looking for something between meals. The dining offer has a relaxed hotel character rather than a specialist restaurant focus.

For downtime, the hotel has a wellness area, an outdoor terrace and a roof terrace. These spaces give guests places to pause away from the room, whether after travelling, a day in the city or an event nearby. The hotel also provides eight modern meeting rooms, making it suitable for meetings, seminars and other organised gatherings.

Altstetten provides a more practical, residential base than the historic centre, while public transport keeps central districts within reach. Local outings include Uetliberg, the city’s nearby mountain, where hiking trails and broad views across the city and lake are available. Lake Zurich, the surrounding wine-growing area and the medieval streets of Niederdorf can also be reached for day trips or evenings out.

Mercure Zurich City works well for travellers who value contemporary accommodation, on-site dining and wellness facilities without staying directly in the old town. Its combination of meeting space, family-friendly positioning, transport connections and proximity to the Swiss Life Arena also makes it useful for mixed-purpose stays.
