About this place Plattenhof

Plattenhof is a small boutique hotel located in Zurich's quiet university neighbourhood, offering a welcoming base for LGBTQ+ travellers exploring Switzerland's largest city. The hotel combines character and charm with a friendly atmosphere, making guests feel at home during their stay. Its central location puts you within a 10-minute walk of Zurich's picturesque old town and the shores of Lake Zurich, while the surrounding area is rich with cultural attractions including museums, theatres, and the opera house. The neighbourhood itself is vibrant with local amenities, from the university hospital to a wide array of restaurants and cafés catering to different tastes and budgets. This makes it easy to explore on foot and discover the area at your own pace. The hotel features its own on-site dining options, including an Italian restaurant, adding convenience for those who prefer to dine in-house or want a relaxed evening after sightseeing. As a smaller, independently-minded property, Plattenhof appeals to travellers seeking an alternative to larger chain hotels—a place with personality where staff take care to make your visit comfortable. Whether you're visiting Zurich for leisure, culture, or to connect with the local LGBTQ+ community, this boutique option offers a convenient and characterful base in one of Switzerland's most cosmopolitan cities.

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.
