Since 2016, around 80,000 honeybees have made their home in the park of Baur au Lac – in their own miniature version of the hotel.

The celebrated Old Town district of the Niederdorf is affectionately known by locals as the Dörfli – the “little village”.

In the place where the machine factory, Maschinenfabrik Oerlikon (MFO), once stood, an architecturally fascinating park hall bears witness to the past usage of the site.

Irchelpark is an ideal place to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and enjoy being surrounded by nature. Trees and bushes shield this relaxing retreat from the streets surrounding it.

The city is located on the eastern shore of Lake Zug. This means that the sun sets on the other side of the lake.

Relaxation in Nature – Luxury for the Smallest Guests: The Tiny Dolder Grand is a charming miniature version of the iconic Dolder Grand Hotel in Zurich.

Hedgehogs enjoy a luxurious suite below, while birds relax on the sturdy sandstone roof – serving as both a spa and meeting place. With its sustainable design, species-appropriate entrance, and removable roof for easy cleaning, the hotel combines style, functionality, and eco-consciousness. Built entirely from local materials, it embodies the Dolder Grand’s vision in miniature form.
