AMERON Zürich Bellerive au Lac offers understated lakefront style at a gentler price than its grand neighbors. Its design nods to the 1920s, and its location on the lakeside promenade is excellent.

Smart value on the lake when you would rather spend on the trip.

Where you’ll be

The hotel sits on the Utoquai, the lakefront promenade on Zurich's eastern shore, close to the Opera House and a short walk from the Old Town and the Bahnhofstrasse. Swimming spots and lake boats are right outside.

The stay

Rooms are comfortable and stylish, with many facing the lake and the distant Alps. It is a calm, well-run hotel that suits city breaks and longer stays alike.
