About this property

Waterfront Penthouse | AC | Rooftop | Free Parking

  • A rare waterfront penthouse in Zurich’s most prestigious location near Paradeplatz. Enjoy a private rooftop terrace, elegant interiors, air conditioning, and free private parking—an exceptional luxury in the city centre. Just steps from the lake, Bahnhofstrasse, fine dining, and the Old Town, this unique retreat combines privacy, style, and breathtaking city living for an unforgettable stay in Zurich.

    The Space
    Welcome to a truly rare penthouse in one of Zurich’s most prestigious and desirable locations—near Paradeplatz, just steps from Bahnhofstrasse and beautifully situated by the water.

    From here, Zurich is right at your doorstep: luxury shopping, the lake, the Old Town, restaurants, cafés, bars, museums, and the city’s most iconic sights are all within easy walking distance.

    The apartment is very easy to reach from Zurich Main Station, and for guests arriving by car, the private parking space is a major advantage in this central location. The building has an lift; only the top floor is accessible via a single flight of stairs.

    When you arrive upstairs, you enter your own private entryway with closets and plenty of space for luggage, coats, and personal belongings—a comfortable and practical welcome before stepping into the apartment.

    Inside, you’ll find a beautifully equipped kitchen with everything you need for a relaxed city stay or a longer visit. The kitchen includes a refrigerator, freezer, oven, hob, microwave, blender, hand blender, SMEG toaster, SMEG kettle, soft drink maker, rice cooker, silverware, pots and pans, plates, glasses, wine glasses, champagne glasses, and all the essentials for cooking and dining at home.

    From the kitchen, you can step directly out onto the private rooftop terrace—one of the true highlights of this penthouse. Start your morning with a coffee and a croissant in the sunshine, read the newspaper in peace, or enjoy a quiet moment overlooking the city. The lounge area is perfect for sharing a glass of wine with friends while taking in Zurich’s beautiful skyline and the water canal below. With the building located right on the waterfront, the atmosphere is truly special—private, elegant, and full of Zurich charm.

    Back inside, the dining area features a large, solid-wood designer table that seats six, ideal for breakfast, dinner, or simply gathering together after a day in the city.

    The living area offers a comfortable sofa, an armchair, and a stylish space to relax. The sofa can be converted into a very comfortable double bed for up to two adults and can be set up upon request. A second section of the living area can be separated with curtains for additional privacy and features a luxurious king-size bed with a premium mattress.

    Next to this area is a small, separate bedroom with a comfortable single bed and a premium mattress—perfect for one adult or a child.

    Next to it is the full bathroom with a shower, toilet, and sink.

    On the other side of the apartment, the master bedroom features another very comfortable king-size bed with a premium mattress, a workspace, and a chest of drawers with a vanity mirror—a calm and elegant retreat in the heart of the city.

    This penthouse combines everything that is almost impossible to find in central Zurich: a waterfront setting, a private rooftop terrace, air conditioning, private parking, lift access, beautiful views, and an unbeatable location near Paradeplatz and Bahnhofstrasse. Whether you’re visiting for business, a romantic city getaway, shopping, sightseeing, or time with family and friends, this is a truly unique home above the city—designed for guests who want the very best Zurich has to offer.

    Just a few steps away, you’ll find elegant boutiques, cafés, restaurants, wine bars, bakeries, and some of Zurich’s most famous landmarks. Bahnhofstrasse, one of the world’s most renowned shopping streets, is right around the corner, while the lake and the charming Old Town are only a short walk away.
    The area offers the perfect blend of luxury, culture, and everyday life in Zurich. Enjoy a morning coffee by the water, take a stroll along the lake, explore the historic streets of the Old Town, or spend the afternoon shopping and dining at some of the city’s best spots.
    Despite its central location, the apartment offers a private and elevated retreat above the city—ideal for guests who want to experience Zurich at its finest, with everything right outside the door.

    Other things to note
    Please note that this is a charming rooftop penthouse with beautiful sloped ceilings in some areas. Certain parts of the apartment have lower ceiling heights than usual, which is typical for this style of home under the roof. We feel it adds to the apartment’s unique charm and atmosphere, but we kindly ask guests to be mindful of this when moving around.
    There is an lift in the building. After entering through the private entrance to the apartment, there is a short flight of stairs before reaching the main living area.
    For your comfort, the apartment has a private washing machine and dryer inside, making it ideal for longer stays, families, and guests who like to travel light.
    The sofa bed can be set up upon request. For reservations with 5 or more guests, we set it up automatically before arrival.
    We are very family-friendly and happy to make your stay with little ones easier. Upon request, we can provide a cot, high chair, baby bath, and changing table, so families can arrive more relaxed and feel at home from the very first moment.
