A mere stone’s throw
from the Paradeplatz, Zurich’s bustling financial district, the Baur
au Lac serenely commands a privileged position in its own landscaped
park, between the lake and the small river Schanzengraben. The Baur
au Lac has been owned by the same family for over 160 years. Only
recently, every room was thoroughly renovated, each one lovingly and
uniquely crafted to combine superlative creature comforts with
classical elegance and every conceivable technical convenience. The
unusually large and light bathrooms of the Baur au Lac and
attractive blend of marble and mirrors, combine practicality with
sheer luxury. The year-round restaurant in the completely redesigned
Pavillon has a truly spectacular setting between the Baur au Lac
Park and the river and offers modern interpretations of classic
French fare for fine contemporary dining. The new Terrace brings
contemporary casualness to the legendary setting of the Baur au Lac
Park. The Rive Gauche Restaurant & Bar, a sparkling blend of chic
restaurant and bar, offers Mediterranean grill room specialties for
“fine casual dining”.
The Baur au Lac features an exclusive fitness centre on the top of
the hotel with magnificent views over Lake Zurich and the Alps. A
personal trainer or physiotherapy may be arranged. The beauty salon
and hair-dresser Vanity offers a wide range of luxury cosmetic
treatments. Located just next to the world-famous Bahnhofstrasse and
on the shores of Lake Zurich, the Baur au Lac is the ideal starting
point for shopping in the various designer shops and jewellers or
for a private boat trip on a yacht along Lake Zurich’s “gold coast”.
