Appenzeller Huus Löwen

Appenzeller Huus Löwen (Gonten, Appenzell) Verified Reviews | Tablet Hotels

"Quaint villages dot the hilly landscapes of the Appenzellerland, a region so deeply rooted in Swiss tradition that yodeling festivals and cattle shows are commonplace. Stylish hotels are relatively few and far between, which makes Appenzeller Huus Löwen especially notable. This boutique hotel, though it’s housed in a timber-and-stone building that dates back to the 11th century, features a modern sensibility both inside and out: solar panels cover the steeply angled roof, and rooms, light-filled and lined in pale knotty wood, have a sleek quasi-Scandinavian look. Whimsical flower murals enliven the breakfast area downstairs, while the rooftop terrace, with a hot tub and wood-burning stove that can be booked for private use, overlooks views of green pastures and snow-capped mountains." - Tablet Hotels
