The Best Boutique Hotels For Families in Zürich in 2026

Alma Hotel is a calming little boutique hotel in Zurich’s upscale Seefeld neighborhood. Women are the target audience, due to the ladies-only wellness space, but Alma is open to everyone. Toxic masculinity dies here, though, we’re sure. The colour choices alone will tai chi it tooth and nail. It has a classically feminine set of pastels, bright yet soft. And pale woods that give the feeling of a film set if Meredith Hayden went vegan. There is something on the edge of twee about it all, but it stays on… > Read Our Full Review

Storchen pairs a classic building with more contemporary design (particularly the rooms), and the result is very chic accommodation on the banks of the River Limmat. So, right by the river then – this hotel really is at the heart of the city, and perfectly placed for waterside strolls. Local records first mention the house in 1357, and, despite the contemporary design, Storchen Zürich has the kind of grandness that only comes with being around for centuries.

You’ll find worn stone, wooden beams, and painted walls that feel like a combination of museum and manor home. It’s hard to pin a vibe to the place, as each room and suite is unique. This is quite an achievement with almost 50 rooms to contend with. You’ve got the historical, sure, but they’ve also thrown in enough bold modernist touches, opulent textiles, and unique, non hotel-y layouts to make anyone… > Read Our Full Review

Part of Ameron, a prestigious European boutique hotel chain, AMERON Zürich Bellerive au Lac brings dependable luxury to a dependable lakeside setting. We probably wouldn’t term this 1928 building an Art Deco masterpiece, but it’s definitely got historic charm. A prime location, right next to Zürichsee, sure doesn’t hurt either. Under the building facade’s slightly severe modern lines is some geometric carving that works nicely with a beautifully decorated interior. And it’s here that the style takes off. Rugs over parquet flooring are bold and eye-catching. A black, white, and… > Read Our Full Review
