How to get to the
SIX Convention Point
From Zurich main station (Zürich HB) take tram line 4, direction Altstetten. Coming from the station in Altstetten, take tram line 4, direction Tiefenbrunnen. From either direction get off at Sportweg. The SIX ConventionPoint is situated within the SIX building next to the tram stop.
The highway connections are a few minutes drive from the SIX ConventionPoint. There is a public pay parking at the Hard Turm Park garage, to be entered via Pfingstweidstrasse. In the garage follow the signs to building 110/SIX.
From Zurich airport to the SIX ConventionPoint it is approximately 20 minutes by Taxi. If you prefer public transport, take one of the trains to Zurich Hardbrücke. From there tram line 4 direction Altstetten takes you directly to the SIX ConventionPoint. Get off at Sportweg.
You can find 3-4 hotel next to the venue that we can recommend, i.e., Sheraton Zurich, 25hours Hotel, Novotel, and Ibis Zurich West.
Sheraton Zurich Hotel is the partner of IoT Business Hub and is perfectly located to the IoT Inspire Zurich event venue. A 2 min walk separates the hotel rooms from the Six Convention Point. You can book your room directly through booking.com or the website of the hotel.
Sheraton Zurich Hotel is the perfect starting point for a stroll through the area and its trendy shops and bars. Sheraton brings people together. Meet the young and cosmopolitan neighborhood in the bar NUOVO or at the Route 26 Steakhouse. The city center and the central station are only a few minutes away by tram. The tram station Toni-Areal is located directly in front of the hotel.
