I had a great stay here when in Zurich on business. This hotel really seems to do everything right -- the rooms are very elegant and comfortable, the staff is very attentive, and the location is great. Expensive but I would not hesitate to stay here again. More

The decor, the look and feel of the hotel, the service and attitude of staff were all exceptional! Very good quality... More

If you can afford the price this hotel is an amazing experience. Perfectly located on the shore of the lake, Zurich's business district is small enough so that it's all in walking distance. My favourite moment was watching the concierge conduct 5 conversations in five minutes in flawless German, French, Italian and English switching effortlessly back and forth. Tey'll spoil... More

This is a seeminly snobby hotel to those who have not stayed here. I have stayed at the Baur au Lac over 10 times and it has been a warm, friendly experience. The staff is so helpful! It feels like home every time I return. The rooms are beautiful and the showers feel as though you are standing under a... More

At first I was a bit shocked at the rates here, but all of the top hotels in Zurich were around the same price, so I chose the Baur au Lac for the in-town location and more classic design. It was absolutely fantastic in every way. Our room was an unusual (almost round) shape and had a fabulous marble bathroom.... More
