About Restaurant Bar Helvetia

The Boutique & Art Hotel Restaurant Helvetia is located in the heart of Zurich and, as a gastronomic “institution,” has helped write Zurich's city history since the 1960s. In addition to the 14 Gault Millau point restaurant with bar, the idyllic summer terrace, the Miami-style pool bar with changing pop-up concepts, and the exclusively bookable rooftop bar let the guest discover something new on every visit. The boutique hotel, with its 34 rooms, its 2 Attic Junior Suites, and its exclusive collection of modern art, is a unique gem in Zurich's hotel landscape.

Current opening hours of the bar / lounge are Monday to Thursday 7:00 to 24:00, Friday 7:00 to 01:00, Saturday 8:00 to 01:00, and Sunday 8:00 to 12:00 (breakfast).

The restaurant offers exclusive menus that combine aspects of regional cuisine with refined international cooking. Seasonal ingredients and a strong focus on sustainability distinguish the Helvetia's kitchen. Together with medical experts, an awareness of a healthy lifestyle and diet is also promoted, which gives the restaurant an additional dimension. A visit to the Restaurant Helvetia is not only a culinary experience but also an opportunity to bring lifestyle and health into harmony.
