Restaurants
The Hotel Ambassador’s restaurant, the a l'Opera, is unique in Zurich in terms of beauty and quality. The artist, Tatjana Tiziana, has transformed the restaurant into a surrealistic-baroque work of art, with motifs depicting various opera scenes. In no other Zurich hotel restaurant is romanticism and art so distinctly perceptible as in the a l'Opera. The WWF label, “Gout Mieux”, and the “Golden Fish” distinction of quality bear witness to the first-class origin and impeccable preparation of the raw products. Moreover, for ecological reasons, preference is given to local and regional producers. The a l'Opera restaurant in the Hotel Ambassador is also recognised by the Guide bleu for its outstanding cuisine. Whether you favour traditional Zurich Geschnetzeltes or delicate turbot – the score on the menu will surprise you again and again with its new compositions.
Location
With some 360,000 inhabitants, Zurich is the biggest town in Switzerland. It is located at the northern end of the 27 km/ 17 miles long Lake of Zurich on both banks of the River Limmat, which flows out of the lake in a northerly direction. Though Zurich only covers an area of 92 sq. km/ 30 sq. miles, this "little big city" offers a vast choice of culture, history, interesting sights and events. With its world-famous bank sector, insurance companies, machine and textile industry and tourism, trade and industry, Zurich has not only grown to Switzerland's most important commercial and economic center, but also to a leading international metropolis.
The Ambassador Swiss Q Hotel is ideally situated in the town centre, opposite the Opera House and only a few steps away from the lake. The shopping mile "Bahnhofstrasse", sights and fine dining areas are reachable within walking distance.
