Opened in 1899 as a grand hotel and spa, the Dolder Grand is a true city resort perched above Zurich. With 175 luxurious rooms and suites, world‑class restaurants, a 4,000‑square‑metre spa, spacious event facilities, and an art collection of over 100 works — including originals by Andy Warhol and Salvador Dalí — the hotel offers magnificent views over Zurich, the lake, and the Alps. The Dolder Grand Spa and the nearby woods provide ample opportunities for rest and relaxation, while the vibrant city centre is just minutes away.

Between 2004 and 2008, the hotel underwent extensive renovations led by the renowned London‑based architecture practice Foster and Partners, who masterfully combined the historic Main Building from 1899 with contemporary additions. The exclusive, subtle decor of the Main Building exudes a unique historical character, while the two modern wings embody the contemporary zeitgeist.

More than just a place to stay, the Dolder Grand serves as a social hub and a melting pot — one of Switzerland’s top addresses for culinary excellence. The lobby and bar regularly host the local and international scene, who gather to network, socialise, and enjoy drinks in a relaxed atmosphere.

Each of the 175 rooms and suites features elaborate interior design with sophisticated details, offering a unique blend of elegance and exclusivity. A wonderful sense of space unites all accommodations, and guests are treated to sweeping views of Zurich or its surrounding nature.

For nearly a decade, Chef Heiko Nieder has been delighting diners at The Restaurant with his innovative gourmet cuisine, which uses an impressive array of flavours that go beyond classic expectations. More than 1,200 bottles are stored in the specially designed wine cube, and works by world‑famous artists adorn the walls. The Restaurant has earned 19 GaultMillau points and 2 Michelin stars, making it one of Zurich’s most highly decorated venues. In 2018, Heiko Nieder was named “Chef of the Year 2019” by GaultMillau, and in 2014 he founded THE EPICURE, a gourmet festival where international top chefs present their creations under the motto “Days of Culinary Masterpieces.”
