LA RESERVE
Zürich
This legendary and majestic 5* luxury hotel has been completely redesigned by world-renowned designer Philippe Starck. Steeped in over 100 years of lakeshore hospitality, the hotel now evokes a sense of an imaginary yacht club, thanks to Starck’s artistic and rebellious touch which prevails throughout the hotel.
The hotel boasts a generous ground-floor restaurant with an impressive show-kitchen and sumptuous décor, a cozy atmosphere to while the evening away. The ground floor bar is a bustling hot spot with a well-chosen cocktail menu for afterwork drinks, business meetings and a refuge for guests after a busy day downtown. The rooftop restaurant, which boasts an impressive fusion of Peruvian and Japanese cuisine as well as breathtaking views across the lake of Zürich is in experience in itself, one that is worth the long waiting linet.
The background music completes the experience, carefully selected to harmonize with Starck’s vision for the hotel and the careful use of texture and layering throughout. The resident DJ’s that can be heard every night throughout the hotel add a modern twist to the yacht club feeling, so much so you may just think you are in St Tropez.
