The leafy, well-heeled quarter along the eastern lakeshore — lakeside bathing, parks, the Chinagarten and a run of smart cafés and boutiques. Calm, green and grown-up, a short tram or lovely lakeside walk into the centre; the loveliest place to stay in summer.

What you’re living next to if you stay here.
- 6.Swim in the lake — In summer all Zürich heads for the water — wooden lake baths (Badis) and free shores where you dive into clean, cool Zürichsee with the Alps in view, then dry off with a drink. A gloriously civilised city ritual; Seebad Utoquai is the classic.
- 14.The Chinese Garden & Zürichhorn — A gift from Zürich's twin city Kunming — an ornate walled Chinese garden of pavilions and koi ponds on the lakeshore, in the parkland of the Zürichhorn. A serene, pretty stop on a lakeside stroll or bike ride out through leafy Seefeld.
