A Designer Hotel: Harmonious, modern and classical design
Overall, the hotel has 66 inviting rooms in which relaxing is made easy. Each room has its own charm created by several well-known interiors designers such as Hannes Wettstein and Patricia Urquiola who were commissioned by the hotel. The design concept was to create a classy but cosy atmosphere, which is realized through muted colours which complement each other perfectly. From first gaze, even just the exterior of the Sorell Hotel Zürichberg clearly shows the villa as an architectural jewel. This is somewhat due to the delightful contrast between the Art Nouveau façade detailed with modern elements, the same design found on the terrace and in the garden.
