this is a beautiful, stately hotel. It’s really world class. The location is fantastic. Stupid little thing I liked was the ink pens that they provided! They also packed our breakfast for us so we had an early morning flight. That was wonderful. Speaking of their breakfast the breakfast that comes with the room if you choose is beautiful. Is that a beautiful restaurant? Lots of great choices. We were here after a long trip through Europe. But this would be a wonderful place for romantic holiday getaway. One thing to note is none of the rooms have views. That was a little disappointing when Lake was right there. I asked for a view and they said they didn’t have one so just be aware of that. It’s hard to be in Switzerland without a view lol

We checked in at Baur au Lac for our anniversary and could not have wished for a better stay. From the superb pre-arrival communication to the truly royal welcome, we felt recognized and cared for from the very first moment. Being greeted by name and acknowledged for the special occasion was a wonderful touch. The room was spotless, the in-room dining service exceptionally kind and attentive, and breakfast the following morning was simply impeccable. A true gem in Zurich that I can highly recommend for a special occasion or simply an unforgettable stay.

What an incredible hotel! First and foremost I just want to highlight the team and the service they deliver. The people at the reception are super helpful, the housekeeping team is very friendly, the door men welcome you with a smile and the team at Marguita always have a good joke at hand. You really feel like they want you to have a great time and we definitely did. We can recommend going for a drink at Marguita in the afternoon or for dinner in the evening. The garden in the center of Zürich is a green oasis in the middle of town. The gym on the fifth floor has everything you need and a super great view over lake Zürich. The rooms are nicely styled and the beds very comfortable. We hope to be back soon!

Beyond the hotelZurich.
Explore the city guideZurich.
A new story every day.
Zurich is the largest city in Switzerland. It sits at the northern tip of Lake Zurich and spreads along both banks of the Limmat River. If you want a lake, a river and a first look at the Alps in a short trip, it is a sensible place to start.
More about the city
What to see in Zurich
- The old town and the Limmat bank: narrow lanes, bridges over the river, and the Grossmünster and Fraumünster churches.
- Bahnhofstrasse: the main shopping street, running down towards the lake.
- Lake Zurich: a walk along the shore or a boat trip.
- The Rhine Falls and Lucerne: both appear as day programmes in MBD tours from Zurich.
When to go
In July and August the average high is 25 degrees. In June and July rainfall passes 140 millimetres a month, so pack a rain jacket for summer. January averages a high of 4 and a low of minus 2 degrees. Christmas market tours in November and December include Zurich.
Getting there from Turkey
Most MBD tours that include Zurich are Dream Triangle tours, which join Switzerland, France and Germany on one route. They depart from four cities (Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, Antalya), run 3 to 4 nights, and fly with Turkish Airlines or SunExpress. Dates and prices are on each tour page.
Who it suits
Travellers who want several cities in a short time, and those who like a city with nature close by. If you plan a long stay in Zurich alone, compare hotel prices first.
