Arriving in Zurich often means more than just checking in
Zurich is rarely just a destination. For many, it marks the beginning of a project, a transition phase or an extended stay between two places. Once the stay lasts longer than a few nights, the focus shifts from visiting to living. This is where the quality of the accommodation becomes tangible.
At Stay Sunday, we see serviced apartments in Zurich as temporary homes. Not as hotel substitutes, but as functional spaces for everyday routines. A real, fully equipped kitchen plays a key role in this.
Kitchenette or kitchen – a practical difference
Many accommodations mention a kitchen but offer only a kitchenette. Two hot plates, a small fridge, limited utensils. For a weekend, this may be sufficient. Over time, it becomes restrictive.
A proper kitchen changes daily life:
- Grocery shopping becomes part of settling in
- Meals can be planned rather than improvised
- The space is used with intention
In Stay Sunday’s serviced apartments in Zurich, kitchens are designed for actual use. With proper equipment, enough space and the assumption that guests will cook.
Everyday routines instead of exceptions
Especially in a city like Zurich, where many guests travel for work or with family, there is a strong need for normality. Breakfast without schedules. A simple dinner after a long day. Familiar routines in an unfamiliar place.
A fully equipped kitchen supports exactly that. It reduces friction, offers independence and allows daily life to unfold naturally.
Experiencing Zurich through everyday life
Cooking also changes how you move through the city. Not just between meetings or sights, but to local shops, bakeries and neighbourhood markets.
This way of staying is quieter, but often more sustainable. Zurich becomes a place to live in, not just to consume.
