Fodor's Expert Review Atlantis by Giardino

Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.

At the foot of Zürich’s Uetliberg mountain, this Y-shaped hotel was a 1970s playground for ABBA, The Who, and Freddie Mercury. Now, after an extensive renovation, it's been reopened as an urban retreat awash in rich fabrics and bespoke furniture. Rooms are classically elegant, decorated in muted colors. A beautiful 25-meter outdoor pool backs up to the forest at the base of the mountain, and a Dipiù spa with indoor pool and Ayurvedic treatments is perfect for gray winter days. Other amenities include a cozy cigar lounge, Michelin-starred restaurant, and shuttle service downtown.
