Swiss Hotels

Ch_sonne_terminus

Click on photos to enlarge them. This is the Hotel Sonne-Terminus or Hotel du Soleil, in French, in the Swiss city of Glarus, on the highway from Zurich to the Saint Gottard Pass. It was my favorite because of the ambience and Papa Frohlich's wonderful geschnetzle and roesti. There are plenty of modern hotels in Switzerland but these are worth the effort it takes to find them, as they vanish from the landscape.

Ch_hotel_flowers

A welcome invitation and flowers for the room.

Ch_hotel_fruit

Elsewhere a basket of ripe fruit to enjoy.

I_bfast_merano

And, of course, a splendid breakfast to start each day. I have to confess that this photo was taken in Merano in the Italian South Tirol, but it is similar to the Swiss with a slightly different version of croissants and crusty rolls, and every bit as appetizingly visual as well as delicious.
