Local before arrival
The Baur au Lac, founded in 1844, has been owned by the Kracht family for six generations. This noble hotel, located on Lake Zurich, keeps up its traditions – Zurich’s society meets in its legendary halls, which are filled with exquisite antiques and splendid floral arrangements. As dictated by the city’s Zwinglian legacy, the hotel favours a subtle luxury. A multi-million-dollar investment and designers Frédéric d’Haufayt and Pierre-Yves Rochen recently provided it with a successful update.
