“It’s not surprising if this stylish 1920s hotel has the air of a film set about it: Swiss director Bernard Weber used it as the location for his 1978 movie ‘Hotel Locarno’, and its low-key glamour makes it a perennial favourite with artists. An impressive collection of Art Nouveau and Deco pieces furnish the reception rooms, and a birdcage lift creaks up to the distinctively decorated bedrooms.”
