Hotel Palafitte
Neuchâtel, Switzerland · Independent · Core Luxury



Thirty-eight pavilion suites put Lake Neuchâtel at eye level, and 24 go further with private ladders straight into the water. Each 68-square-metre pavilion has a terrace; the 14 shore versions add Alpine views. La Table du Palafitte follows regional produce through the seasons behind broad windows, while the unusual stilted structure preserves the forward-looking spirit of the Expo.02 project that created it.
- 38 rooms
- Opened 2002
