"We often talk as though “traditional” and “modern” are in opposition, but in Switzerland, they’re serious about upholding the values of traditional hospitality, even if some of the aesthetics have changed. Landgasthof Kreuz Kappel, for example, was established 350 years ago, and from the outside, it looks it — though well maintained, it’s a timeless example of traditional Swiss architecture. Inside, however, it’s another story: the rooms in the main house are modern and minimalist in style, while the newest rooms, built in the old barn, use more typically traditional materials and textures, though to no less contemporary effect." - Tablet Hotels
