"Quality of life and enjoyment"
The Schwan has been the meeting place of the inhabitants of Horgen since 1466 - a traditional house with an eventful past. Close to the vibrant city of Zurich and only a stone's throw from the shore of the lake of the same name, lies the fine boutique hotel. In the historic centre of Horgen, where time still runs a little slower, quality of life and enjoyment have always been writ large.

Your hosts
Since 2015, host Ruedi Hintermann and his team have been welcoming guests to the Romantik Hotel & Taverne Schwan. In doing so, he relies on a modern ambience steeped in history and cultivates the traditions of this historic house with dedication. In this way, he has created a place where holidaymakers who want to experience Switzerland with all its advantages and do not want to do without anything can switch off and enjoy. Today, Ruedi Hintermann offers a very personal retreat. Whether you want to discover the surroundings as a traveller, you are taking a break on a business trip or you are a couple taking time out in love.
