The Baur au Lac has the discerning tastes of its guests to thank for the leading position it has maintained for more than 165 years in the international luxury hotel industry. Set in its own park, the hotel enjoys a unique location overlooking the lake and the Alps ? and yet is still but a few minutes? walk from the Paradeplatz financial district and the Bahnhofstrasse, Zurich?s celebrated shopping high street. While offering the ultimate in comfort, luxury and privacy, the rooms and suites have been equipped with every, yet hardly noticeable technical refinement. The large, luxuriously appointed marble bathrooms with separate shower and toilet, heated floor and daylight match up to the highest demands of comfort, design and equipment.
