The Opportunity: Project Alex is a 44-unit luxury suite boutique hotel in the greater Zurich area. The rooms are sized between 33m2 and 42m2 thus well suited for long stay, all

The hotel is the only hotel with Zurich lake front access where swimming is possible and

The interior finishes – imagined

The hotel was originally built in 1957 and has a long-dated history. It is now being reconstructed by a renowned developer and the newly constructed hotel opened in 2019.

There are only two hotels in the area and no luxury hotels. The hotel is in a quiet area outside the city centre, embedded within a recreational area between a rowing club and a Park. It enjoys beautiful views of the lake, Zurich City and surrounding, and the Swiss mountains.

It is easily accessible by train and well connected to the nearby road highway network. Ski resorts are only one hour away by car. The corporate headquarters of several global companies are located close to the hotel, such as Dow Chemical Europe, Lindt & Sprungli, 3M and SwissRe Insurance.

Planning and hotel licence are in place, with a renowned hotel and restaurant operators under contract (subject to agreement with new owner).

The plot area is 2,672 sqm and the floor space is 4,450 sqm.

This is a new feature on the THPT site…. Hotel & Serviced Apartment owners can be naturally reticent in publicising their property is for sale…for confidentiality reasons, for staff and current client reasons, so the properties featured in this section will either be “generic” or “name specific”

Each fortnight we mail the opportunities posted that week, but check-out the tab “Hotels Available” and call us for details of “Under the Table” – deals not posted on the site at all
