Grand Hotel National Luzern + nemokamas atvežimas! | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

It had to be something amazing. In Lucerne, everyone agreed that no effort should be spared in the town's attempts to compete for the attentions of a growing well-heeled international clientele, if it was not to wind up as an also-ran behind the likes of Lausanne, Montreux or the Bernese Oberland. The outcome was the Hotel National, a monumental edifice erected between 1868 und 1870. Benefiting from a prime location on the shores of Lake Lucerne, the star of the establishment shone all the more brightly when César Ritz, a man of humble beginnings, was handed the sceptre in 1877. The arrival of master chef Auguste Escoffier was the cherry on the cake. Success was not long in coming. A succession of innovative hoteliers and extensions throughout the 20th century ensured that its prestigious clientele remained loyal in the post-Ritz/Escoffier era. The Hotel National, then and now, ranks amongst the top addresses of Central Switzerland. It had to be something amazing.
