Thirteen rooms and suites, each with a tangible link to the house’s history.

The listed Villa Florhof is being transformed into a boutique hotel. Reopening in 2026, the property in Zurich’s Old Town will offer thirteen rooms and suites that blend original historic elements with contemporary Lalique design.

The commitment to excellence is evident in every detail: high-quality materials, carefully harmonized finishes, and a high level of comfort. Completing the ensemble is the historic vaulted wine cellar, which visibly carries the building’s history forward.

The Cuisine of Villa Florhof

On the ground floor of Villa Florhof is the Bar & Brasserie; on the first floor, the house’s fine-dining restaurant, opening later in the year. Both concepts share a unified culinary signature shaped by Christian Jürgens.

The Brasserie stands for comfort food—home-style cuisine from Switzerland and its neighboring countries—presented with a cosmopolitan touch. In the first-floor restaurant, Christian Jürgens and his team cook in the style you know him for: the finest ingredients, focused on the essentials, with a love of detail and a playful wink.

The Opening Crew sets the tone from the very beginning. From the pre-opening phase through and beyond the opening, you work closely with management to shape processes, standards, and a shared ethos.

At Villa Florhof, everything revolves around contemporary hospitality—characterised by responsibility, precision, and personal presence.

Located beneath the villa, the historic vaulted cellar forms a central element of the house. With an exceptional breadth of origins and vintages, it ranks among the region’s most versatile wine collections.

As co-owner of Villa Florhof, Silvio Denz has been instrumental in shaping the wine cellar’s direction. The house’s affinity with wine is also reflected in the estates of Vignobles Silvio Denz, synonymous with provenance, terroir, and artisanal precision.

Curatorial responsibility on site rests with sommelier Julien Beltzung, in professional dialogue with Romain Iltis, Chef Sommelier of Villa René Lalique and Directeur des Vins at Lalique Hospitality.
