Leonardo Boutique Hotel Rigihof Zurich, a 4-star hotel near the airport, is located 9.3 miles from Kloten and 0.9 miles from Zürich Hauptbahnhof. The historic Bauhaus-style building, constructed in 1931, stands in the university quarter, 328 ft from the tram and bus station. The Dolder wood nearby offers jogging and walking trails.

Room Varieties & Comforts

Guests can choose from three room categories, including the Superior Room with a courtyard-view balcony and the Suite featuring a minibar and standalone living room. All rooms include kettles, teas, and coffees, with polished timber floors and local-inspired artworks. Certain units have seating areas for relaxation.

Dining & Socializing

The Mediterranean restaurant serves seasonal specialties, including mezze platters, pizzas, and fish dishes. The Rigihof bar offers cocktails, craft beers, and light bites, attracting Zurich's after-work crowd. A breakfast buffet with fresh options like fruit, yoghurt, and omelettes is available.

Leisure & Relaxation

The Hürlimann Spa provides a luxury treatment with an open-air rooftop whirlpool offering city views. Nearby hiking and biking trails cater to outdoor enthusiasts. The Burger Boutique Züri serves gourmet burgers with vegetarian and vegan options.

Business & Convenience

The Eileen Gray meeting room accommodates up to 30 persons with audiovisual technology. Onsite catering can be arranged for events, while the Funicular Rigiblick sightseeing cable car is accessible for business travelers. The hotel provides direct tram access to Zurich airport.

“The hotel's location proves ideal: close to Zurich's center, with immediate tram access, though light sleepers may find the nearby church bells disruptive. I appreciate that the Bauhaus-style building houses uniquely-themed rooms with included mini-bars, adding personality. The Mediterranean restaurant on site is convenient.”
