Ruby Mimi Hotel & Bar

A stylish, dimly lit bar and lounge with wooden tables, cushioned seating, a well-stocked bar, neon sign, palm plant, and warm ambient lighting, creating a cozy, inviting atmosphere.

A star is born
in Zurich

For over a century, the spot where our bar now stands was a cinema. Adorned with art nouveau elegance, it was a place to see and be seen.


Inspired by this cinematic past, the bar's now home to vintage cameras, costumes and early film posters, along with a thoroughly modern menu of signature cocktails. Swing by for live gigs, drinks with friends, and classic screenings in our beautiful movie lounge. And when it's time to unwind, step behind the scenes to a haven of Lean Luxury calm: your room.


Our central spot is a great base for exploring the city, strolling by the lake or shopping 'til you drop. And with Zurich's main station right across the road, you can be at the airport in under 20 minutes.

  • Elegant, dimly lit bar with black and gold decor, round tables with wooden chairs, a long counter stocked with bottles, and red velvet curtains on the walls in the background.
  • A vintage gold bar cart with glass bottles and cups stands against a dark wall, beneath a framed collage of black-and-white photos. A red curtain is partially visible on the left, and a round wall light glows on the right.
  • A large, elegant building with a red-tiled roof and tall columns stands behind leafy trees and parked scooters; a white van is parked on the street in front under a clear blue sky.
  • A bright hotel room with a neatly made bed, large windows, an open door to a balcony, and a scenic city view featuring historic buildings and a tall church steeple in the background.
  • A modern red armchair with curved backrest and seat, upholstered in velvet fabric, featuring four angled wooden legs, set against a plain white background.

Hollywood meets history

Housed in what was once one of Zurich’s first cinemas, Ruby Mimi is a celebration of the early days of Hollywood. When movies were silent, studios flourished, and stars were born. Leading the charge in this new era of international celebrity were five young starlets – all called Mimi. Taking our cue from their era-defining spirit and style, we’ve sprinkled a little Hollywood magic throughout our design. From rich, velvet furnishings and art nouveau nods, to vintage cameras, lighting and costumes, Ruby Mimi blends the grit and glamour of early movie sets.
