The Swiss culture of discretion is famous, and nowhere is it more in play than in the grand old hotels in Zurich. Here the wealthy come to take tea and rest their weary heads on the softest of pillows.
The grandest hotel of them all, the Dolder Grand, is where Mick Jagger was pictured canoodling with a ballet dancer on a balcony overlooking the lake, a bare 11 weeks after the death of his partner L’Wren Scott.
And its smart counterpart, the Baur au Lac, is where some of FIFA’s officials were arrested earlier this month — the hotel is near to its HQ and many shady deals are said to have been done in its magnificent interior.
