The Hotel Helmhaus, a boutique hotel in Zurich has been welcoming guests for 650 years and is one of the oldest guesthouses in Zurich. During the Reformation, the hotel played a central role in preserving the city’s cultural heritage from iconoclasm and in building up its poor relief.
To this date, this legacy informs the hotel’s commitment to art and sustainable business.
