Option 1: Bürgenstock Resort: It´s perfectly on the way and I find the setting interesting. Nevertheless I see the mixed reviews and I fear it´s full of posers and dayguests. Nevertheless it seems most things you find are from the Palace or Waldhotel, Bürgenstock Hotel is not the place the bloggers stay. I would only stay 1 night as I think you got it after it. As the Bay Suite is the same as the Double room (only view) I would go with the "cheapest".

Option 2: Dolder Grand: Not directly on the way but only a minor detour. Not in the city but good SPA and views. Would ask for suite in the old building as they seem to be bigger. Would most likely stay 2 nights. The Restaurant is closed what´s a down for me.

Option 3: Baur au Lac. Love the location and their 2 star is open but no SPA. It lacks a little the relaxing factor for me.

Any thoughts?
Depending on the days of travel I would do option no. 4 and take a longer detour and go to Forestis in South Tyrol. Tower or even Penthouse Suite with halfboard plan for one night. Stunning views, great food, SPA and nice service throughout. Stylish with solid Tyrolean substance.
