Boutique Hotel Schlüssel
Romantic time-outs, lovingly staged: A dream come true from the Belle Epoque for fans of boutique hotels.
This 18th century gem is 'the place to be', especially for fans of history, but also for nature lovers. Arriving at the 4-star gem is a key experience of a special kind for guests: the charming façade with red shutters on the outside, inside you immediately feel at home. The welcome is warm and the hosts invite you to an aperitif in the garden, in the lobby or in the dining room before you check in. It is not guests who are entertained here, but friends - this philosophy can be felt and experienced in the long term. Surrounded by Lake Lucerne and the mountain landscape, it quickly becomes clear that the hotel is the perfect base for vacation activities and cozy get-togethers.
The small hotel stands out wonderfully from the megalomania and impresses with a small number of rooms. However, each of the 12 boutique rooms is an individual dream: warm wooden floors, feudal beds, free-standing bathtubs with lake views, Belle Époque furnishings and a nostalgic drinking water column to round things off - perfect for romantics who want to stroll through a bygone century like gentlemen and ladies of the past. A nod to modern times comes in the form of free Wi-Fi and free DVDs to sweeten rainy days with cuddly moments together in your room.
The historic ambience is of course perfect for wedding celebrations in a cozy atmosphere. 70 to 100 guests can be catered for in the Boutique Hotel Schlüssel, the grandiose catering strategy is called 'Flying Dinner' and benefits all wedding guests who don't want to sit stiffly in their seats. Indulge in music and dancing in the wine bar and enjoy a quieter conversation in the dining room - no problem, because the food comes to you in the form of canapés, platters or soups in a glass. You are also guaranteed to find your wine glass again - it is labeled with your name.
Hotel owners Daniel and Gabrielle Aschwanden-Huber have even more good ideas when it comes to the menu: You will look in vain for a menu here; the chef will discuss the menu sequence with you personally and will of course take special requests into consideration. Divine, regional delicacies then end up on your plate - the cuisine is uncomplicated, tasty and in keeping with the surroundings - Gault Millau awarded it 13 points. Whether it's the Gaststube, Jägerstübli, Steinkeller, Schlüssel-Gärtli or Weinstube - a cozy, rustic atmosphere is guaranteed in all restaurants. An insider tip is the delicatessen, where you can buy olive oil and Italian delicacies.
