The Dolder Grand (formerly known as Grand Hotel Dolder) is a 5 star superior hotel in Zürich. Built in 1899, the hotel is located on Adlisberg hill, spreading out over 40’000 m². The hotel offers 173 rooms and suites, two restaurants, a bar, 13 conference rooms and a 4’000 m² Spa.

The hotel is connected to central Zurich by road, and by the Dolderbahn rack railway, which has its upper terminus next to the hotel complex.

The Hotel was closed from 2004-2008 for an extensive renovation which cost about 440 Mio swiss francs according to the owner himself. Famous architect Norman Foster was leading the project.

The rooms are all very modern with top notch features, a great view of the city, the golf course, lake of zurich and the alps. The marble bathrooms are generously sized and feature towel and bathroob heating facilites which I found kind of fancy and liked it very much.

The state-of-the-art spa is a huge and holistic venue, probably one of the biggest hotel spa’s that I have ever seen. There is everything you might be looking for including a very quiet and nice meditation room.

The hotel restaurants are excellent, garden restaurant is famous for sunday brunch and “THE RESTAURANT” just got his 2nd Michelin star.

Definately the hotel in Zurich with the most magnificent view. If you have time and not need to stay downtown the Dolder Grand Hotel is “the” place to stay. I can only highly recommend it to all sofisticated travelers outhere.

The Kameha Grand Hotel opened its doors in May 2015. It is located right between Zurich Airport and Zurich downtown. There is a tramstop right outside the hotel which can bring you conveniently to both destinations. A shuttle and limousine service is also availble. (Glattpark area where lots of large companies such as Google Europe, GE Europe, Microsoft, Kraft/Suchard food and many more are located)

The Kameha Grand hotel is unique in style, has an impressive architecture and a extraordinary design. All is designed by Marcel Wanders and very unconventional but with plenty elements that remind you where you are, Switzerland and Zurich.

There are a few themed suites, such as  the Diva Suite, James Bond Suite and  a Fitness Suite among others. Lots of very high tech design and features. Oversized large bathrooms.

The Hotel features a bar, where hundreds of gold coins are refering to the name: Puregold Bar. There is a shisha and a smokers lounge. The restaurant L’Unico features daily fresh pasta and a large sunday brunch. Restaurant Yu Nijo with chef Normal Fisher mixes french cuisine and asian dishes and was  just rewarded with  a michelin star.

A gym room and a spa are available with a very stylish lounge to relax.

All over the hotel you will find IPAD’s ready to leave your message to the managment right on the spot. You can rate and comment directly.

The hotel staff is very helpful and friendly and ready to help in any way they can.

If you are looking for a luxury hotel which is extraordinary and varies a lot from most big or chain hotels the Kameha Grand is the place to stay. Their motto is “Life is Grand” and you can really feel it when you stay there.

Many things have been writen about the Peninsula Bangkok already. After a few visits to the PBK since it’s opening in 1998 I can only underline the high consistency of top service, which still makes the PBK to be one of the world’s top ten hotel.

The rooms are still in great condition with it’s classic chic and top-notch technical features. The rooms and suites are beautifully decorated in a contemporary style and tastefully appointed. Whether you are here for leisure or business the accommodation lets you unwind, offering you a comfy and cozy stay in the bustling city of Bangkok.

The bathrooms are oversized with a separate shower, bathtub with TV and 2 washbasins.

The hotel has 5 restaurants, a beautiful 88-meter tiered swimming pool with sun loungers, thai sala’s and a whirlpool.

The spa at the hotel offers full body treatments, massages and facials. In February 2010 the spa was voted in the top ten spas in Asia and in 2008 it was placed number 5 by Travel and Leisure Magazine.

The is a free shuttle boat service to the Peninsula pier, Sapan Thaksin pier (BTS) and to the Asiatique Night Market.

The staffs performs a high level service and you can feel that they are well trained and coached by the mostly swiss/german management team of the hotel.

Excellent and high degree service hotel on the riverbank of Chao Praya River!

wonderful room

extremly spacious bathroom with jacuzzi

Harvey’s point Hotel is located on beautiful lough eske. The hotel is a first class property pleasantly decorated in a classic style with excellent service from all the staff members. Everybody was courteous and helpful.

I stayed in a executive suite which was extremly spacious and well appointed, featuring a hallway, a dressing room and a kitchen cabinet. The master room was lavish and noble featuring oversized beds and daybed plus a a sofa and a nice sitting area by the window with a small table.

The bathroom was huge in size with a jacuzzi tub, a make up table, 2 sinks and the biggest shower that i have ever seen including a rain shower head.

The hotel has a very large bar, a library/gallery with cozy sitting area and a grand restaurant which serves a wonderful breakfast as well as a culinary high standing fine cuisine.

I had a four course menu and each and every dish was delicately decorated and tasted mouthwatering.

Harvey’s point hotel is a true gem in the north of Ireland.

I stayed in a executive club suite which is on the 36rd floor. There is a small club desk for check-in, check-out and a concierge function. The always superfriendly staff is attentive, helpful and ready for any assistance that you might need.

The suite size is generous and offers a nice view of Dubai and the Burj tower. Separate living room and a very comfortable bed make the suite like a small home away from home.

The best asset of the Club Floor is the Club Lounge. There is a daily excellent breakfast served there, plus all day snacks, afternoon tea and of course a happy hour in the evening offering wines, cocktails and more.

There are several restaurants in the hotel. I did not have a chance to try them all, but i had a very dinner at PAX restaurant which serves excellent italian food in a huge italian style area. Also here a great view of Dubai.

Maison Mathis in the lobby is a 24-hour open restaurant which opens nice food, full bar and is a great place to get something after a long flight or before traveling back since many of the flights in and out of the UAE are during the night.

I have tried Namm Spa which offers a nice clean, very modern athmosphere and real thai staff which offer authentic massages in a wonderful manner. Highly recommended.

All in all i can say that staying at the Dusit Dubai was an excellent choice. It’s a nice big hotel with a swimming pool on the roof top (including Gym), several restaurants, great transportation opportunities and wonderful staff from all over the world which are never tired to offer you any kind of help.

I arrived at the JW Marriott Hotel at around 9pm after a long trip from europe. I was greeted cheerfully and check-in very speedy. My room was on the top floor of the hotel with a nice view. The room was spacious, impeccably clean with a nice big bathroom and a comfortable big bed.

All the staff that I have met at the hotel were always smiling and offering friendly greetings.

I had a sunday brunch at the Xanat restaurant which was great value for money. A huge buffet offering all kinds of mexican and international food, salads and wide choice of desserts including freshly made crepes. The brunch also included 2 mimosa drinks.

A perfect city hotel with a nice bar and very kind employees which offer you any help you might need and all the comfort which is necessary to make you feel welcome and comfortable.
