Inside Five Zurich
At the foot of Zurich's famous Uetliberg, a new luxurious lifestyle hotel has recently opened its doors. It is the first hotel of the Dubai-born hospitality brand FIVE outside the emirates. Boasting 45 luxurious suites and 42 suite-sized lifestyle rooms with glittering skyline city view or mountain view, the hotel is also home to seven food and beverage outlets. Among them are restaurants, bars, a nightclub and the illustrious social pool. For us, it is the perfect place for a staycation in our home country.
Lunch at Soul Street
An excellent place for lunch is FIVE’s award-winning restaurant brand Soul Street. Here, the art of street food is celebrated. A vibrant mix of street art, created by some of the most talked about international street artists, can admired as well. While listening to buzzing tunes, we get to enjoy amazing dishes from the Indian, Middle Eastern, Asian, and Latin American cuisine.
In Dubai, Soul Street has also made a name for itself for their global street food party brunch, as well high energy dining events. We can't wait for them to also make an appearance in Zurich.
Relaxing at the Social Pool
After a delicious lunch, we head down to the enormous social pool. Here, we learn that FIVE Zurich's property can already look back on a rich past. The pool has always played a crucial part. Apparently, legends from Rihanna and Elton John, to Grace Jones and The Who have partied here before. We can understand why. It's hard to find a pool at a 5 Star Hotel in Switzerland with these dimensions. The whole setup is simply captivating.
As we're relaxing under Zurich's scorching summer sun, we enjoy Champagne and talk about our favorite topic: Watches! Which steel sports model would you wear at FIVE Zurich's social pool?
Maiden Shanghai
For dinner, there are several excellent options to choose from at FIVE Zurich. One is certainly the Maiden Shanghai. Here, Chef Luo Bing invites his guests to enjoy organic gourmet Chinese dishes. They are inspired by four renowned Chinese cuisines: Cantonese, Sichuan, Shanghai, and Beijing.
While the restaurant's terrace offers magnificent views over Zurich, its interior design is inspired by Shanghai's roaring 1920s. In this wonderful setting, Chef Bing takes us on a culinary journey through China.
The Penthouse
If you prefer fusion cuisine, then The Penthouse is your choice. Besides sushi, we order many other dishes inspired by Asian cuisine. We recommend to start the evening outdoors on the terrace before moving inside to immerse yourself in the opulent décor.
As the sun begins to set, The Penthouse gradually transforms into an exclusive nightclub. With live music as a regular fixture, guests can vibe to some of the world’s hottest DJs. There is even a mysterious bathroom bar that you just have to experience yourself.
Mixing Cocktails at The Vault
Every good night ends with a cocktail. And this is best enjoyed at The Vault. It features a classy bar and also boasts a versatile selection of Swiss wines. The in-house sommelier is happy to recommend the right wines and also cigars. Meanwhile, the skilled bar team is preparing cocktails - both classic and contemporary.
