member of design hotels TM. The Hotel Widder could almost be a hamlet of a hotel. Ten historical former residences, many dating back to the Middle Age, have been joined together to create an unusual hotel collaboration. The 49 rooms and 7 suites have emerged from this charming, luxurious labyrinth of a hotel ? one that many proclaim the best in all of Switzerland. The sensitive architecture seamlessly links historical materials with present-day structures, construction methods, sharp details and an innovative sense of design. By subtly intermingling single buildings via staircases, porticos and inner courtyards, a feeling of intimacy and exclusive security has been created in the hotel?s public spaces. These include the Widder Restaurant and Turmstubli, the Wirtschaft zur Schtund, the hotel?s magical garden and the Widder Bar. For those interested only in a study of architecture, the Widder is worth a trip to Zurich in its own right.
