Baur Au Lac

City Hotel

Trip Advisor Rating '.$item_trip.' Our Rating 9.4
 

Baur au Lac, a storied five-star hotel in Zürich's heart since 1844, pulses with a legacy of grandeur, having hosted luminaries like Audrey Hepburn and sheltered Empress Sisi, while bearing witness to the Nobel Peace Prize's inception, all within its family-crafted heritage.

Nestled within its own private park, the hotel's rooms and suites weave timeless elegance with bold modernity, blending polished antiques and contemporary art against a backdrop of Hollywood allure. Each space is adorned with sumptuous fabrics, sleek furnishings, and expansive windows framing Lake Zürich or the distant Alps. Bathrooms gleam with marble and plush amenities, while complimentary minibars add a touch of indulgence. The interplay of classic charm and cutting-edge design creates an intimate yet vibrant atmosphere, inviting guests to linger in refined comfort.

Culinary artistry unfolds at Pavillon, the hotel's Michelin-starred restaurant, where delicate French dishes and Swiss-inspired creations dance on the palate, served in an airy glasshouse with lake views. Rive Gauche, a lively bistro, offers Mediterranean plates and inventive cocktails in a chic, art-filled setting, while the intimate Baur's Bar crafts bespoke drinks with rare spirits, perfect for savouring under crystal chandeliers. The top-floor fitness centre, bathed in natural light, energizes with state-of-the-art equipment, while the spa offers bespoke medical massages and physiotherapy to soothe. A hair and beauty salon adds polish, and curated experiences, from private lake cruises to guided art tours, immerse guests in Zürich's cultural tapestry.

Steps from Parade Square's banking hub and the glittering Bahnhofstrasse, Baur au Lac lies a mere 12 kilometers from Zurich Airport, offering seamless access to the city's vibrant core and the serene majesty of Lake Zürich and the Alps.

Wonderful hotel but sadly with one short fall. Service at the reception (especially Vanessa), the concierge desk and the breakfast room are exceptional. We had a beautiful room and everything we ate...
