| Description |
|
The Luzern
Radisson Blu hotel is part of a development
on Luzern's waterfront known as Lakefront
Centre. It apparently occupies a site
once home to railway sheds. The
centre includes the 4 star Radisson hotel,
various restaurants, at least 5000 square
metres of office space as well as 24
exclusive duplex apartments. The
building features a double layered glass
facade with large rectangular windows.
External blinds of various colours provide
the occupants with a sun shade and privacy,
as well as giving the building what the
architect describes as, "... an
almost playful character." The entrance hall is
equally colourful. Redesigned in
2013 by the Italian design house of
MOROSO, it features modern furniture in
various forms and a number of bold
colours.
 The architect's
website says of the hotel that, "...
All rooms and suites are decorated
in a modern style and some of the
rooms come with fabulous views of
Lake Lucerne and the wonderful
scenery around it. Each room
features either a mountain or lake
view. Fresh and bright, the standard
rooms at this Lucerne accommodation
provide a welcome retreat after a
day of sightseeing, outdoor
adventure or even business
appointments."
