In a panoramic setting in the center of the city, this is a small-scale but particularly luxurious and trend-conscious boutique hotel, the most exclusive of its kind in Lucerne. Famed French architect Jean Nouvel designed it. Although familiar to London, this type of urban boutique hotel is new to Switzerland. Called simply "the Hotel," it is luxury personified, yet there is an artful simplicity to it. From the custom-designed furnishings in wood and steel to the luscious, avant-garde cinema scenes on the guest-room ceilings, every aspect of the hotel reflects Nouvel's unique touch. Some two dozen studios and suites are spread across the seven-story building. Preferred are five corner junior suites with park views on both sides. Other options include garden and park luxe suites with patios, and luxe studios with park views. Nouvele achieves his dream of "combining spirituality with elegance into a timeless design -- not a matter of decor but of lifestyle."
