1 Clouds Kitchen at Prime Tower

Begin your four-hour walking tour of Zurich West in the former Industriequartier at the mirrored 36-storey Prime Tower. It was the tallest building in Switzerland until 2015 when the Roche Tower was unveiled in Basel. For visiting businesspeople this may well be a venue they find themselves having meetings in. Take the life to the 35th floor and you will find Clouds Kitchen, a restaurant, bistro and bar. Th ere’s also a smokers’ lounge where you can enjoy a cigar. Whatever time of day or night you visit, the views are impressive, and give you a great opportunity to see Zurich West and the train lines that run alongside up to the main Hauptbahnhof station. Visit for a co ee or cocktail. Hardstrasse 201; clouds.ch/en.
