About this place Plattenhof

Plattenhof, a compact design hotel on Zürichbergstrasse in the university quarter, sits on a quiet, residential street and puts the old town and lake within a ten‑minute walk. The building houses its own Italian restaurant, and a short stroll takes you to the university hospital, several museums, and the Schauspielhaus. Google reviews rate the place 4.3 out of 5 from nearly 400 comments. The hotel is marked as gay‑friendly, but its vibe feels more mainstream than niche. If you’re looking to hit Zürich’s gay bars, you’ll need to hop on a tram or walk a bit farther to Kreis 4 or Niederdorf. It’s a practical base for students or visitors who want easy access to campus life without the noise of the city center.

Unfortunately, I absolutely cannot recommend the Hotel Plattenhof as a partner for collaborations. While they promise exhibition openings and other opportunities, the management seems overwhelmed, disorganized, and unprofessional. For months, one waits for feedback, emails go unanswered, and agreements are constantly changed or broken. Especially for artists who invest time, energy, and trust, reliable and transparent communication is essential. It is all the more disappointing when communication is practically nonexistent and one is constantly put off. In my opinion, the hotel should refrain from hosting such artistic events until a clear structure and reliable support can be guaranteed.

The hotel is located close to the university. It has a great Italian restaurant. The breakfast is good- great bakery. The soft boiled egg cooker is a blessing. The room is small but well equipped. The desk is uncomfortable.
