Description
The Hotel was constructed in 2000. Designed by the celebrated Parisian architect Jean Nouvel, the hotel is tranquilly and centrally situated next to an adjacent park in the heart of Lucerne.The Culture and Convention Center, the historic quarter with its lake promenade and the train station are all accessible with a 5-minute walk. Completely conceived and designed by Nouvel, the interiors are an architectural marvel and bear Nouvels classic hallmark - the interplay of wood and steel. All of The Hotels vertical panels are made from wood, whilst the horizontal panels are made from stainless steel. The purposefully understated corridor leads guests into the rooms, each with large windows that open up breath-taking views of the city and the park next to the hotel. Each room is unique, with different ceiling or wall projections depicting 30 film scenes from Nouvels own personal background, creating a cinematic experience for guests.Directions
