Escape to the beautiful Dolder Grand Resort, overlooking Lake Zürich and situated on the edge of Adlisberg Forest. Guests staying at the resort experience a resort-like stay in the city with storybook scenery, easy access to the capital of Zürich, exclusive pop-ups, a unique modern art collection and beautiful fall foliage. Here are four more reasons Dolder Grand Resort should be at the top of your fall travel list.

 

Oriental Hideaway Pop-up

Hidden within the hotel, Oriental Hideaway, a place celebrating Middle Eastern flavors, invites guests to enjoy the culinary brilliance of Chef de Cuisine Firas El-Borji. Until Oct. 29, indulge in a delightful menu with classics like hummus and falafel, Biryani rice dishes with lamb and shrimp and new vegetarian options. The menu focuses on the use of fresh, seasonal ingredients of the highest quality.

 

Hiking in the City

Immerse yourself in the outdoors with walks or bike rides around Lake Zürich, Käferberg and Greifensee. Enjoy stunning views of the city and Alps. You can even have Dolder Grand pack you a picnic with fresh cheeses, charcuterie and chilled Champagne.

 

Daytrips from Zürich

The Rhine Falls, Rigi and Säntis are a few must-see destinations in Switzerland. The Swiss Alps appeal to all nature lovers; the mountains Rigi, otherwise known as the Queen of the mountains, awes all who witness it; and Säntis, the highest mountain in Eastern Switzerland, lies just a little more than an hour from Dolder Grand.

 

Kunsthaus Zurich

Discover the art and culture of Zürich by exploring its unique art exhibitions and Swiss galleries. The Kunsthaus Art Museum displays art from the 17th century through modern day and is the biggest and most complex art museum in Switzerland. Kunsthaus holds significant art exhibitions, including pieces from Monet, Picasso, Beckmann and Corinth.

Now’s the Time to See Giza, the Nile and Beyond

All archaeology-obsessed eyes turned hopefully toward Egypt earlier this year when the highly anticipated Grand Egyptian Museum outside Cairo finally began welcoming visitors after construction delays, funding roadblocks and political upheaval in the region (among other factors) conspired to keep things delayed for many long years. The museum’s cherry on the top is slated to open this summer, with the July opening of the museum’s 20-plus-years-in-the-making Tutankhamen galleries and accompanying cache of some 5,000 artifacts and treasures from the boy king’s tomb.
