Depends on the budget or the conditions you want.
A service apartment of 30 m2 is more or less 2500/month.
Some big companies has 10% discount.
Serviced means: Fully furnished, expenses included and weekly cleaning.

Hi Scarlett
yes, this is not really the proper forum where to post this request, nevertheless this is my contribution based on my experience:
the main website used in Switzerland for housing is www.homegate.ch, but usually aparments are only rented for long term (to people with a B or C permit) and without furniture, then even if you would be able to get one it would be anti-economic to furnish it only for 6 months.
The hotel is in my opinion not an option (unless your company is paying for it and doesn't care about the cost), as a single night in an hotel could easily cost 200 CHF, anyway you can check on www.booking.com
Bed and breakfast could be an option (www.bnb.ch) but I don't know anything about it.
There are renting companies that rent furnished temporary apartments for something starting from 2500/3000 CHF per month:
www.apartments-swiss-star.ch
www.visionapartments.eu
www.accademia.li
www.cityappartements.ch
Another possibility: if you are lucky you can find somebody that is going on holidays for some months and is subletting his/her apartment
But the main option in cases like yours is to share an apartment (to rent a room) with somebody else.
I'd say that for the last two options the glocals "Classified" andf other expats' webites forums will be a good starting point for your reserch.
Good luck !
