About Dolder Grand

Located on a wooded hillside overlooking Zurich's city center and Lake Zurich, the Dolder Grand has been a luxury health spa and landmark hotel since its completion in 1899, but extensive renovations and additions (courtesy of Norman Foster's architectural firm, Foster and Partners) have made the place more impressive than ever. Reopened in 2008, the grand, five-star hotel has gained two ultramodern wings, an improved spa, and more. The Dolder Grand Spa blends European and Japanese traditions in its amenities and treatments, and it also offers medical spa services. Hotel guests have access to the larger Dolder Grand Resort community, and Zurich's sights are easily accessible.

Treatment MenuView business treatment menu >>

The new and improved Dolder Grand Spa has a modern feel that brings in design elements from the outdoors. The glass entryway doors are etched with a forest landscape, the relaxation lounge has wicker seating hanging from the ceiling, and the indoor pool area has walls of rough, white stone. Blending European and Japanese traditions, the spa offers an eastern-inspired sunaburo with several egg-shaped tubs filled with hot stones, as well as a cold room filled with snow, and separate saunas and steam rooms for men and women. The spa has 21 treatment rooms and services include facials and body treatments such as seaweed wraps and salt scrubs, as well as laser skin treatments, dermal fillers, and other medical spa treatments. The fitness center offers yoga, Pilates with Reformer, and qigong. The spa also has a hair salon and café.

Rooms & Dining

Accommodations in the original building include hints from the past, such as intricately designed wall coverings and molded cabinetry, while rooms and suites in the newer wings tend to be more modern in style. Each room has a marble bathroom with a shower that can be used as a steam room plus a separate tub. Larger rooms also have fireplaces, and all rooms in the new wings have balconies. The hotel also has a collection of ultrachic signature suites that were inspired by former guests, including the Rolling Stones, Alberto Giacometti, and Giulietta Masina.

With dark wood seating, contemporary lighting features, and commanding floor-to-ceiling mirrors, the Restaurant offers gourmet cuisine in a sophisticated setting. The casual Garden Restaurant has lots of natural light and a large outdoor terrace with a view of the mountains. Light meals, drinks, and fresh pastries are available in the Lobby, and the Bar offers a chic atmosphere with olive-green leather seating, dramatic lighting, and a glossy baby grand piano for evening entertainment.

I visited quite a few 5-star spas in Switzerland one lucky week last summer...and this was the last one I experienced. You could call it the cherry on the top. Truly stunning in terms of design - it melds an old architecture with modern architecture beautifully. This place has everything (in fact, we did get a little befuddled by all the techno gadgets in our room!) and the spa is as beautiful as it appears here.I had probably my most favourite treatment here - using Kerstin Florian products. Would highly recommend it as a great place to visit for a weekend getaway to Zurich - a fabulous city worth visiting!
