Newly reopened 5-star hotel with a fresh interior design, in the historic old town and right on the river Limmat.
The hospitality of the Storchen Zürich has been renowned for more than 665 years. Due to its unique position in the heart of the Limmat city, the guests at this traditional first class establishment enjoy Zürich at its best.
Along with your much-loved rooms, the Barchetta, the restaurant La Rôtisserie and first floor Cigar Bar the hotel became even more comfortable for you.
Uniquely located right at the Limmat, overlooking the wonderful reflection of the Grossmünster in the water at night, the Storchen is predestinated for fish dish lovers.
It is not known exactly how the hotel got its name "Zum Storchen". Legend has it that the name was adopted after a pair of rare black storks nested on its roof. In 1357 the "Hus zum Storchen" was mentioned in the tax records for the city of Zürich for the first time and just over 100 years later, it was specifically described as an inn.
