Standing next to the Opera House on the lakeside promenade, is the grand five-star Hotel Eden au Lac, only 10 minutes walk from the famous Bahnhofstrasse. The magnificent facade is matched by both its interiors as well as its vast reputation. The hotel opened in 1909 and became a listed building in 1981.Hotel Eden au Lac blends tradition and personal service with contemporary sophistication retaining the intimacy of a family hotel. Recent renovations provide all the modern facilities and fittings commensurate with its world-class stature including the latest in modem technology. Most rooms have balconies or terraces overlooking the lake whilst those on the upper floors can see the city and the Alps beyond. The celebrated gastronomique restaurant, Eden, serves seasonal fare, classic cuisine and its signature dish, Hors d'Oevres Chaud, invented here by Aga Khan III. The wine list is a formidable companion.
