The Romantik Seehotel Sonne is the oldest taverna in Switzerland. In 1641 the taverna was mentioned the first time by its name. For 350 years the hotel was in ownership of the family Guggenbühl. Later the hotel was purchased by a citizen of Küsnacht and since 2002 we manage the house.
The Sonne is loaded with history and as a guest you can feel original “Swissness”. We emphasize much on making our guests feel the special individuality. So in the bathrooms we have house made herb bath salt and always two interesting reading books in English and german in the rooms.
Unique are also our 80 paintings and sculptures from internationally known artists that are accessible for all guests. (A. Giacometti, Andy Warhol, Mario Comensoli and many more)
Located directly on Lake Zurich and just 12 minutes by car or train from the city center, the 4-star superior boutique hotel Sonne Küsnacht – Zurich welcomes you. Guests can enjoy relaxing moments in the cozy lounges, unwind in the spa, or get active in the fitness center. Two first-class restaurants and the stylish tower bar provide culinary variety. The lakeside location combines relaxation with excellent transport links – ideal for vacationers, business travelers, and guests from the region.
Culinary highlights await you in the restaurants, featuring Mediterranean specialties and modern interpretations of Swiss cuisine. A drink in the tower bar rounds off the evening in style, while in spring and summer, the garden restaurant directly by the lake invites you to linger outdoors.
From October 5, 2025, to the beginning of April 2026, the Sonnengalerie Restaurant will be renovated to offer our guests a more contemporary ambiance. The renovations will take place Monday to Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. We thank you for your understanding and look forward to welcoming you to our dining room during this time. If you already know that you would like to dine with us, we recommend reserving a table early.
