The Circle Opens at Zurich’s International Airport

After five years of construction, Zurich Airport has finally opened its brand new district, The Circle.

Featuring two Hyatt hotels offering a combined 555 rooms, a world-class convention centre spanning 5,000sqm, a major medical centre with health and beauty facilities, 70,000sqm of state-of-the-art office space, scenic parks, a series of high-end shops, and a range of concept restaurants, The Circle was conceptualised as a one-of-a-kind airport space aimed at making Zurich airport the next urban centre.

Designed and developed with the modern and future generations in mind, The Circle is already enjoying some prominent tenants including Microsoft, Hyatt, Omega, Singapore Airlines, Oracle, Läderach and many others. A major attraction with a view that has also taken up tenancy at The Circle is Switzerland’s largest rooftop venue, the stylish Sablier Rooftop Restaurant & Bar, serving up the finest and most delectable French culinary delights.

After five years of construction, Zurich Airport has finally opened its brand new district, The Circle.  

With sustainability at the forefront of the design, The Circle will be certified to the highest Leadership Energy and Environmental Design standard, Leed Platinum. A certification standard developed by the US Green Building Council, this amounts to the maximum of 110 points for the seven criteria of sustainable construction, water efficiency, energy and atmosphere, materials and resources, indoor environmental quality, location and development plus innovation.

Along with being LEED-certified, The Circle is also Minergie certified (a Swiss construction standard) for its high-quality building envelope, systematic ventilation, low energy requirements and the employment of renewable energies to provide superior comfort to the space.
