Bar Hotel Seehof

Frommer's Review

Set close to the opera house and the promenade that parallels the lake, this small-scale, postmodern hotel was opened in 1999 after a radical renovation and modernization of the original 1930s-era private house. The hotel retains the original russet-colored exterior, but the interior decor is angular and efficient, with stark white walls and the kind of black furniture that you'd expect in a trendy art gallery. Fortunately, the angularity is softened, in both the public areas and the bedrooms, with varnished and beautifully crafted oaken floors and a revolving series of artworks (usually photographs, by Swiss artists). Many of the rooms are reserved by opera singers performing at the nearby Opera House.

Facilities:
Restaurant (Mon-Fri for lunch only); bar (closed weekends July-Aug); room service; laundry service/dry cleaning
