Switzerland: Lifestyle brand Mama Shelter will open its first property in Switzerland on 31 July 2025, located in Zurich.
Set to open in the Oerlikon district close to the railway station, Mama Shelter Zurich has been designed by the team’s in-house studio led by Benjamin El Doghaïli. It will mark the 19th hotel worldwide for the brand.
The property features 178 rooms, a restaurant, bar, a rooftop lounge, banquet hall, coworking spaces, pétanque and table tennis courts, pinball machines and a fully equipped gym.
The first floor of the hotel is a hybrid space and includes a bar with outdoor terrace, four studios and three workshops plus a creative room, alongside the gym.
The second floor is home to Mama’s Garden rooftop lounge which provides views of the city and serves a menu including brunch, wines and cocktails.
Serge Trigano, co-founder of Mama Shelter alongside his sons Jérémie and Benjamin, said: “Zurich, beyond its banks, is a natural destination for Mama Shelter thanks to its architecture, its lake, its nature, and excellent gastronomy. So Mama Shelter is proud to take over an iconic hotel in this city and completely transform it to fit our concept, making it the 19th in our growing family.”
Cédric Gobilliard, chief operating officer of Mama Shelter, added: “Zurich is a city in constant evolution, cosmopolitan, creative and forward-looking, sharing Mama Shelter’s values of openness, friendliness and freedom. With this new address, one of the first lifestyle and party spots in this revitalised neighbourhood, we want to offer locals and travellers alike a warm, lively, and accessible place designed for the joy of being together. A place to work, meet, share a meal or a drink… or simply enjoy a convivial moment, from morning until night.”
