With 125 years of history and prestige, the saga of the Dolder Grand began in 1899. This historic five-star resort establishment, nestled in the hills above Zurich, stands at the forefront of the hospitality industry, seamlessly blending its rich heritage with a modern and inspiring vision.
Between 2004 and 2008, the hotel underwent a significant transformation through renovations by architect Lord Norman Foster. Foster’s vision for the Dolder Grand was to seamlessly blend historic charm with contemporary design, creating a meeting point between the past and the present.
Featuring 175 rooms and suites with panoramic views of Zurich, Lake Zurich, and the Swiss Alps, the Dolder Grand remains a premier destination for travelers, offering luxurious accommodations, a commitment to excellence, and an innovative approach.
The hotel has welcomed a host of distinguished guests, from Hollywood stars like Leonardo DiCaprio and Diane Kruger to royalty such as King Charles and cultural icons like Nelson Mandela. Reflecting its connection to pop culture, the hotel even features a suite dedicated to the Rolling Stones.
The perfect stay must always be complemented with fine dining. Two Michelin star-holder The Restaurant, led by Culinary Director Heiko Nieder, is perhaps the most perfect eatery. The menu offers the most delicious dishes, and the cherry on the top? The chef will visit your table. Such unique experiences have earned the Dolder Grand the title of Hotel of the Year by GaultMillau in 2016 and 2024.
No stay would be complete without a relaxation and self-indulgence experience away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Cue Dolder Grand Spa, offering the best luxurious experiences along with a range of world-class treatments. Guests can indulge in a variety of facilities, an opportunity not to be missed.
And if the weather is good, the outdoor pool area is a must-visit. Another stand-out for the Dolder Grand is the integration of technology and innovation in hospitality. In addition to accepting cryptocurrency, the hotel employs robots for housekeeping and food services, elevating the guest experience to new heights.
Continuing its pioneering spirit, the hotel is committed to long-term social, environmental, and economic sustainability. Moreover, the hotel shows keen interest in art with a collection of over 100 artworks by world-renowned artists including Salvador Dalí and Takashi Murakami.
And to celebrate its 125th anniversary, the Dolder Grand invited some artists to express their own hotel stay experiences in their own artistic language. The result is a diverse collection of individual works that reflect the essence of the hotel and take guests on a journey to get to know it more deeply.
Starting from 2,220 CHF for the superior double room.
