Currently surrounded by construction but they gave me a room on the lowest level (right on the river) and I heard nothing! It was heaven to sit in the window by the river and read.

Baur au Lac is world-renowned for being a wonderful hotel, but what truly stands out is the staff, who take care of their guests with an attention and warmth unlike any other, making them genuinely feel at home. I leave here not only my highest recommendation, but also my heartfelt thanks for all the care I received.

Not even a welcome drink or water when we arrived. Breakfast good service but very boring selection of food. Dry pancakes and croissants from the grocery store?

Still the greatest hotel in the world.

I am hoarse from bleating about this hotel on every site on which it is mentioned. If you are, by nature, slightly old-fashioned, non-woke and, in my case, arthritic, there is no hotel to compare. I have now stayed here four times and, whilst it may require a small mortgage to afford its luxury, it is worth every soux. Being forgetful, as well as arthritic, I managed to mislay my shaving kit. The BAL had the answer.......a boxed set of soap and a razor with a wooden handle. For God's sake, a wooden handle! That small detail is what sets this Shangri-la apart from all others. I want to stay forever.......because, unless the good Lord decides otherwise, I certainly won't live forever.
