A new chapter in aristocratic style

Travel to Zurich, a city full of European aristocratic style, and discover the Baur au Lac, a luxury hotel that has been passed down for seven generations and still shines brightly! 🏰💖 Since 1844, the hotel has witnessed countless gatherings of the rich and famous, including the King of Sweden, the Queen of Norway, and the Empress of Austria. Their footprints have been left here, becoming an eternal classic. 👑👫 👩‍💼 Today, the hotel's seventh-generation owner, Marguita Kracht, is injecting new vitality and charm into the Baur au Lac with her unique perspective and philosophy. Marguita's love for hotels began in her childhood. The time she spent with her father at the hotel's switchboard filled her with love and longing for the hotel industry. 👧📞 After studying at Boston University and Cornell University, she gained extensive experience at top hotels such as LVMH and the Four Seasons Hotel George V in Paris, and returned to the Baur au Lac with a halo of glory. 💫💼 🌱 Marguita not only inherited the family's glory, but also incorporated the concept of sustainable development into the hotel's management. She leads the team to prioritize the use of natural energy, such as wind, water, and sunlight, to reduce the carbon footprint. From waste management to energy efficiency to beehives in the garden, every initiative demonstrates the Baur au Lac's respect and care for the environment. 🌳💚 🍽️ In the summer of 2024, the Marguita restaurant will make its debut. Designed by master designer Martin Brudnitzki, it is like a delicate and nostalgic elegant space that instantly transports you back to the classic good times. 🍷🕰️ The restaurant is named after Marguita, not only as a tribute to the family tradition, but also as a perfect interpretation of Mediterranean style. Chef Maximillian Muller's creative menu combines classic Mediterranean flavors with modern elements to bring travelers an unprecedented feast for the taste buds. 🍤🍅 🛌 When you walk into the rooms of the Baur au Lac, you will be deeply attracted by the luxury and comfort. Each room is carefully designed, from deluxe rooms to presidential suites, exuding a noble and elegant atmosphere. 🛋️🛌 Open the window and you will see the sparkling Lake Zurich. Close your eyes and you will feel the gentle murmur of the lake, allowing you to completely relax and enjoy this rare tranquility and comfort. 🌊💤 👫 Here, you can spend a romantic time with your loved one, or enjoy a quiet journey of self-exploration alone. Whether you are attending a grand banquet or sunbathing on the hotel's private beach, the Baur au Lac can fulfill all your fantasies of a good life. 💑🌞
