A mountaintop hotel on the Uetliberg — the city's local mountain with a 30-minute tram ride from the center — with panoramic 360-degree views of Zurich, the lake, and the Alps. The Uto Kulm has 55 rooms, a restaurant with the finest views in the Zurich area, and the singular experience of sleeping above the city in the forest. A popular choice for those wanting to combine a city break with the Swiss mountain experience without traveling to Grindelwald or Zermatt.
