Park Hotel Vitznau

Vitznau, Switzerland

Park Hotel Vitznau

The Park Hotel Vitznau occupies its own stretch of the shore of Lake Lucerne, behind centuries-old walls, and guests board the hotel’s own boats from the jetty. In the basement, six cellars – among the largest in Switzerland – house wines from around the world. The walls feature a collection of works by the surrealist painter Claude Verlinde, and one room is dedicated to chamber music. Christian Nickel oversees the kitchen just a few metres from the water, alongside Simon Sauter, who trained as a head chef at Tim Mälzer’s Bullerei in Hamburg.

What we like

The moment

At the spa, surrounded by granite, a jacuzzi lies in a flood of light.

The flavour

A Norway lobster with lardo di Colonnata, for surf and turf at Focus.

The cocktail

The bar hits suave musical notes -- try Sexual Healing, with VSOP cognac and ristretto.
