HOTEL HIMMELRICH - SWITZERLAND'S
AWARD-WINNING LUXURY BOUTIQUE HOTEL
Is there anything more
heavenly than being in the midst of mountain and lakeside splendour? Better
yet, in one of the most famously beautiful countries in the world -
Switzerland!? Switzerland boasts not only the highest mountain peaks in Europe,
but it also has over 7000 lakes, making it the superlative choice for travelers
seeking out the extraordinary. Swiss travel is synonymous with luxury,
exclusivity and prestige, and all for good reason. Purveyors of luxury
experiences around the world, the Luxury Lifestyle Awards have recognized the Hotel Himmelrich for being the Best Luxury
Boutique Hotel in Switzerland, 2021 - giving discerning guests a stamp of
approval and distinction for future travel consideration. See what's earned
them this prestigious award:
Boutique Hotel Himmelrich is
magnificently located on the famous slopes of Mount Pilatus massif (also known
as Dragon Mountain, as medieval folklore has it), overlooking the historical
and pristine town of Lucerne. The luxury boutique hotel also looks over onto
the entire Lake Lucerne, which is an unforgettable sight. The lake is the
fourth largest in Switzerland, and is uncharacteristic because of its unusual
shape. It has many bends and turns and its shores are bordered by steep
mountains, which is a visual masterpiece. Guests of Boutique Hotel Himmelrich marvel
at the sheer natural wonderland they are surrounded by, forming the perfect
backdrop to an epic, luxurious Swiss escape.
This small hotel offers a selection of
29 exquisitely appointed rooms and suits. No expense has been spared in
creating luxury spaces for their guests to lavish in. Modern, clean lines, glamour
and sophistication is what one can expect from Hotel Himmelrich. Nuances of
Swiss tradition blend flawlessly with luxurious charm, making this special
place comforting and ultimately desirable.
Of course, no luxury boutique hotel
would be complete without a beautiful restaurant to dine in. Aptly named,
‘Heaven Restaurant’ serves up a delightful breakfast, lunch and dinner menu
headed up by acclaimed Chef Gianny Banuta. Dine in the most elegant of settings, fit for royalty. Expect
to savour finely prepared dishes like Swiss Salmon Gravlax with Spanish
Galician Octopus, Tortellini with gorgonzola and pears, and Peach with praline mousse with
peach jam and vanilla ice cream. A decadent gourmet experience that is a must
on the foodie bucket-list!
Catering
for special occasions, Boutique Hotel Himmelrich features a superb terrace,
opening up a magical area to create memorable events. The space is covered with
a pergola for all-weather conditions, or an open sun to take advantage of
warmer weather. Immaculately outfitted with ambient lighting, natural plants,
neutral shades and plush furnishings are expertly woven together revealing an
amazing atmosphere.
While
staying in the lap of lavish luxury at Boutique Hotel Himmelrich, here are some
of the top things to do in Lucerne:
●
In summer a special loop, the Goldene Rundfahrt (Golden
Tour) has been devised, in which you depart Lucerne by paddle steamer.
●
Take a ride on the world’s steepest railway. After being
awestruck by the scenery, then catch the “Dragon Ride” aerial cableway, ended
off by a gondola cableway back down the mountain.

Visit Chapel Bridge - the world’s oldest surviving truss
bridge, and Lucerne’s iconic emblem.
●
Go and see the Lion Monument, which is a dying lion carved
into a former sandstone quarry.
● Explore the Glacier Garden, which is a collection of
potholes dating back to the ice age. This is a fascinating natural attraction.
● Visit the breathtaking sight of Musegg Wall, as there are nine tall towers in a row all divided
by a length of the of the city wall. These were the city’s defence walls raised
at the end of the 14th century and used to defend the old town.
● A trip to Hofkirche,
Lucerne’s medieval Romanesque basilica was burnt down during the Thirty Years’
War in the 17th century. While the war was still raging in the 1630’s, the city
built its new church, one of only a few to be built.
