Schindler Aufzüge AG is set to construct a hotel and residential building in Ebikon, according to a company statement, featuring around 130 hotel rooms and rental apartments. Located directly across from the company’s headquarters, the project will play a key role in enhancing the area’s appeal and meeting the local demand for both living and guest accommodation. The hotel will be operated by a specialized provider, to be determined at a later stage.
«We aim to meet a practical need while also making a sustainable contribution to the region,» says Franz-Xaver Simmen, CEO of Schindler Group. The design plan is set to be submitted in early July 2025, with construction slated to begin in autumn 2026, and the hotel’s opening is expected in mid-2028.
