Gasthof Ochsen lies in the heart of the village and is yet only a few minutes' walk to the lake.
In winter, as you enjoy a hearty Swiss-German meal, you will be charmed by the warmth of the wooden appointments and the traditional tile heating oven. In summer, dining is also available in the delightful little garden outside.

The Florhof has a long history, dating back to 1576. Situated on a very quiet street, it is directly adjacent to the historical Old Town of Zurich. The enchanted garden courtyard houses an ancient fig tree and an 18th century fountain, both beckoning the pilgrim to rest and reflection. A veritable oasis in the heart of Zurich.
Hotel St. Joseph
