Downtown Switzerland. Live it. Love it.
International financial centre, midscale shopping paradise, cultural capital and stylish city. A base for workaholics, shoppers, opera, theatre and art lovers, and for those who have mastered the art of living.
Zurich, Switzerland's biggest city has retained its provincial charm, although the big names of the financial and banking world adorn the company nameplates here. The paved old town on both sides of the Limmat, the Bahnhofstrasse with its famous luxury-goods shops, the delightful promenade along the lake, the countless monuments and historic buildings ... all are near your accommodation readily reachable on foot.
