PropertyDescription : Location. The Hotel Plattenhof in Zurich, Switzerland, is situated 800 meters from the narrow cobble stone streets and historic buildings of Old Town. Many Zurich sites are several hundred meters away, including the Swiss National Museum and Fraumunster Church. Hotel Features. The Hotel Plattenhof partnered with several agencies when creating its unique concept, including Ogilvy & Mather for branding, JBally und Partners for interior design and Bächi und Steiner for architecture. The result is a hotel that creates a new hospitality niche that reaches a medium between anonymous corporate hotel chains and unaffordable luxury hotels, be they large or small. The Sento Bar & Lounge is something of a sleek neighborhood leisure destination with clientele ranging from two businesswomen chatting over Latte Macchiatos to a vacationing couple toasting glasses of Prosecco to a graduate student from the nearby University of Zurich looking over the daily papers laid out on the custom Italian designed tables. For dining, the Sento Restaurant, which in Italian means "I feel, I taste," is lead by the young chef Roman Kobam, who pushes Piemontese cuisine to new contemporary levels. During the summer, guests can dine on the garden patio. For guests requiring meeting space, a naturally lit 26 square meter meeting rooms accommodates up to 18 people. Guestrooms. The 37 guestrooms, fresh from a 2003 renovation, features a white color scheme with oak parquet flooring. All guestrooms come equipped with wireless high speed Internet access and satellite television. The Design guestrooms feature flat screen televisions, gaming consoles and designer toiletries. Design guestrooms also feature custom designed Italian furniture. Expert Tip. The Design guestrooms feature an Artemide lighting systems that adjusts the lighting color according to guest preferences, which may depend on which MP3 is playing on the special stereo system that links up with guests' MP3 players.
