Frommer's Very Highly Recommended

This is a government-rated five-star hotel designed and built in 1958. Its developers intended for a golf course to surround it on all sides. Although the building permit for the golf course was eventually refused by the city, the name remained in place. There's a 9-hole golf course about 3km (2 miles) away, however. Today this is a large and comfortable hotel, with a helpful staff and lots of alpine warmth. In the winter it's a toasty, cozy retreat; in the summer it's a pleasure chalet, as red geraniums bloom on its balconies and chaise longues are set up on its lawns. Heiner Lutz and Laurenz Schmid offer paneled bedrooms, each individually furnished. Some have Oriental rugs and offer grand comfort.
