The Dolder Waldhaus has been part of Zurich’s cityscape for over 100 years. However, the present building – which dates from the 1970s – no longer meets the operational or architectural requirements of our well-travelled guests. The building will be replaced with a brand new construction following an interim period, which will see it made available for temporary use until January 2021.
The architectural firm Meili, Peter & Partner Architekten AG has been setting standards in Zurich since 1987. It won the architectural competition for the Dolder Waldhaus project in 2011.
The first hotel building, the ‘Waldhaus Dolder’, opened for business in 1895 (image: 1915).
From small farmers’ village to chic, bustling city district, the area surrounding the Dolder Waldhaus has been utterly transformed over the last 100 years.
The Dolder Waldhaus is located just a stone’s throw away from the Dolder Grand Hotel, a city resort offering exquisite cuisine, a one-of-a-kind art collection and an unparalleled spa.
