Uniquely elegant, like no other hotel - Zainab from Qatar (9/10)
This is my second time staying at this amazing hotel! I loved everything about the hotel, from room service, concierge, food (restaurants & in-room), facilities, and much more. I look forward to planning a summer trip to enjoy the outdoor terrace and garden as well as experience a unique excursion aboard Tugenia.

Chic and luxurious stay in the heart of Zurich. - Kara from United States of America (9/10)
Baur au Lac is an absolutely beautiful and luxurious hotel. It is very comfortable and incredibly located within a few minutes walking to multiple tram stations - very easy to get around the city. Our bags got lost by the airline and Baur au Lac helped with laundry service for our limited belongings. Snacks and waters in the refrigerator were included which was nice. The air conditioning worked well (it was pretty warm in Zurich while we were there). While we didn't get a chance to eat there, the restaurant out front looked wonderful. Our room was a far walk from the front desk but we were tucked down on the canal so we could watch the swans floating by which was so lovely. We informed them we were there for a celebration so they brought us cake and wine - so sweet!
High price but you get what you pay for. - Scbd from United Kingdom (9/10)
It is difficult to critique near perfection. There was nothing not to like.
A wonderful, classic and well located hotel - Neil from United States of America (9/10)
Classic European luxury hotel, both service and rooms.
A very comfortable boutique hotel in the heart of Zürich - Alex from United States of America (9/10)
The hotel is centrally located, well maintained, and professionally administered. I should add that that the concierge staff were extraordinarily helpful packing and shipping to my home in the US clothes and a backpack that came in handy while I hiked in the mountains but would have been burdensome during the remainder of my trip.
