The Dolder Grand Hotel & Spa, a Restored Historic Hotel in Zurich

Wow, wow and wow. The Dolder Grand's newly refurbished spa, says insider Rafa Serrano, offers not only decadent spa treatments, it is also a historical experience.

The hotel was built in 1899 and was originally a Curhaus, or health spa. Its newly redesigned, 4,000-metre spa upholds the century–old tradition of complete sophistication and relaxation. The spa includes workout, movement and mind–body studios, 19 treatment rooms and two private spa suites. The grey–tiled indoor pool in the Aqua Zone overlooks the beautiful forest, and the outdoor whirlpool overlooking the lake is incredibly calming. Try one of the spa's signature treatments, like “Blossom of Snow by Kerstin Florian,” which uses the unofficial Austrian national flower, Edelweiss. With the pampered treatment, great facilities, and breathtaking surroundings, you'll feel like you're in a fairytale. With 173 luxurious rooms to stay, The Dolder Grand is one of Zurich's top places to stay and enjoy.
