Concierge.com's insider take:
In the financial district near the main shopping boulevard, Bahnhofstrasse, on the site of a former parking garage, stands this 142-room deluxe number. It opened in 2004 and was the first newly built five-star in Zurich in three decades. The place has all the Park Hyatt signature elements: big rooms with tan-taupe color schemes and lots of timber, walk-in closets, vast floor-to-ceiling windows, flattering lighting on dimmers, and every comfort, from desks with ergonomic chairs, broadband access, and dual voltage points to Bang & Olufsen multichannel satellite TV with DVD and CD. Oversized bathrooms have deep soaking tubs, separate showers, and unusual Blaise Mautin products. There's a fitness center, two restaurants—one fancy, the other fancier—and a bar-lounge, all hung with color-rich abstract modern canvases. There's really nothing you can say against it—if a modern, ultracomfortable, not awfully personal hotel is your bag, this is going to hit the sweet spot.
From the editors of Condé Nast Traveler:
Created from a former parking garage, the 142-room Park Hyatt gives its plush international brand of luxury an edge with pedigreed contemporary art. Rooms are shrewdly designed, with peek-a-boo wooden shutters between bedroom and bath, huge Bang & Olufsen TVs, CD/ DVD players, and wickedly comfortable beds with fluffy duvets. Noteworthy amenities include Onyx, a groovy lounge that slings perfectly mixed oversized cocktails; the Parkhaus, an open-kitchen restaurant with an easy-to-love grill menu; and a well-equipped health club with a sauna and a steam room. In the could-do-better department, the service is impersonal and the place is surprisingly noisy—service trolleys rattle down the halls and the pipes announce themselves.—2005 Hot ListView the entire Hot List of the travel world's most noteworthy debuts in 2005 ›
