Nestled along the pristine shores of Lake Zurich, La Réserve Eden au Lac Zurich stands as a testament to luxury and refined elegance. Indeed this five-star hotel, reimagined by the renowned designer Philippe Starck in 2020, offers guests an unparalleled experience that seamlessly blends historic charm with contemporary sophistication.
A Century-Old Legacy Reimagined
Originally established over a century ago, La Réserve Eden au Lac Zurich has undergone a meticulous transformation. Philippe Starck’s visionary design pays homage to the building’s storied past. Meanwhile, it infuses the structure with a modern, nautical-inspired aesthetic.
The result is an “imaginary yacht club,” where guests can immerse themselves in an atmosphere that evokes the elegance of a bygone era. This is complemented by contemporary interior comforts.
Luxurious Accommodations with Breathtaking Views
The hotel boasts 40 exquisitely designed rooms and suites, each offering a unique blend of comfort and style. Many accommodations provide stunning views of Lake Zurich, allowing guests to wake up to the serene beauty of the water.
Thoughtful touches, such as Philippe Starck-designed furnishings and modern amenities, ensure a stay that is both luxurious and memorable. I particularly enjoyed the bathroom, with its amazing bathtub and stone furniture… And it also get its own balcony!
Culinary Excellence at La Muña
Perched on the sixth floor of the hotel, La Muña restaurant offers a dining experience that is as exceptional as its panoramic views. Accessible via a glass elevator from the lobby, La Muña provides a 360° perspective of Zurich’s historic centre. My favorite part, the lake and the Alps serve as a breathtaking backdrop!
The interior, set beneath the hotel’s spectacular dome, showcases original brick walls and wooden floors. This definitely creates a warm and inviting ambience like a Swiss chalet. The décor features comfortable leather seating and eclectic rugs, reminiscent of an elegant harbour master’s office.
Regarding food, the culinary offerings at La Muña are a delightful fusion of Japanese and Peruvian flavours. Indeed, it presents dishes that combine different textures and flavours, from ceviches infused with aromatic spices to tender beef teriyaki drizzled with truffle sauce. Designed for sharing, each dish invites guests to embark on a gastronomic journey that tantalises the senses. As you can imagine, everything is homemade!

Beyond these luxurious accommodations and dining, La Réserve Eden au Lac Zurich offers a range of other amenities designed to enhance the guest experience. The Eden Kitchen & Bar for instance, located on the ground floor, serves contemporary cuisine in a setting illuminated by natural light streaming through multicoloured stained-glass windows.
