Park Hyatt Zurich

What the classifiers highlight

Glass facades set this apart from Zurich's traditional palace hotels, steps from Paradeplatz and the lake. Forbes counts 138 rooms across eight categories, from 387 to 775 square feet, each with Carrara marble baths and rain showers, plus a 1,722-square-foot Presidential Suite with its own kitchen, fireplace and steam sauna. The parkhuus kitchen plates Mediterranean food like fine art.
