“The hotel struck me as a distinctive place to stay in Lucerne, with its unique artistic design and cultural theme. I think the rooftop suites with private whirlpools and curated gin selections at the vibrant bar are particularly appealing; plus, the location is exceptionally central, a short walk from the old town. It's a well-placed and interesting boutique choice.”
