Some places hold a very special type of fascination. Almost always they are places of indescribable beauty, because whatever words you choose will fail to convey the sensations aroused in you. The Punta Tragara Hotel is one such jewel, standing as it does in a unique location overlooking the blue Capri sea right at the legendary Faraglioni cliffs. This extraordinary and unique setting, together with the hotel’s striking architecture, a creation of the genius of Le Corbusier, can now be admired from recently refurbished splendor, thanks to which the hotel blends in with nature even more harmonically, respecting and enhancing the island’s uncontaminated beauty. An iconic salmon colored building, in a stunning setting - this is the Punta Tragara Hotel. In the 1920s the great Swiss Architect, Le Corbusier assisted in the design of the villa which was to become the Punta Tragara Hotel, and to epitomize the elegance and allure that is Capri. The site is one of the most perfect on Capri - not too close, not too far from the frenetic streets of the town, a fifteen minute saunter along the beautiful Via Tragara. The location is dramatic, with amazing panoramic views out over the Faraglioni rocks and the azure sea. The architect took full advantage of the unique site. There are great picture windows in the public rooms, and balconies to all the 43 rooms. The terraces and exclusive pools have stunning views. Décor and furnishing is a deft mix of striking contemporary and classic. In the rooms, elegant antiques combine with every modern facility. When not dipping into the buzz of the town or enjoying a wonderful scenic stroll, guests can enjoy relaxing in one of the two swimming pools or luxuriate in the selection of face and body treatments offered in the wellness center. Guests dine on excellent Mediterranean cuisine in the Punta Tragara Hotel's Monzù Restaurant or in the more informal restaurant by the pool, a great place for watching sunsets over the sea. Hotel Punta Tragara is situated right next to the Belvedere di Punta Tragara, from where to admire a magnificent view of the Capri's legendary Faraglioni, the Bay of Marina Piccola and a glimpse or two of Capri's picturesque town center. To reach the hotel, guests walk along one of the island of Capri's most attractive pathways, where to observe spectacular displays of brightly colored Mediterranean flowers, cascading over the walls of some of the island's most beautiful residential properties.

The Storchen Zürich is a traditional first class establishment with 67 stylishly elegant rooms and suites in the heart of the old city.

It is not known exactly how the hotel got its name «Zum Storchen». Legend has it that the name was adopted after a pair of rare black storks nested on its roof. In 1357 the «Hus zum Storchen» was mentioned in the tax records for the city of Zürich for the first time and just over 100 years later, it was specifically described as an inn. Paracelsus knew it, Grimmelshausen stayed here, Richard Wagner was a guest at the «Storchen»: For more than 650 years, the hospitality of the «Storchen» at the Weinplatz in Zurich has been renowned. The wellknown author John Irving immortalised the «Storchen» in «A Son of the Circus» and «A Widow for One Year». And in the early twentieth century, the industrialist E.G. Bührle transformed it into what it is today. Let us leaf back through a few pages in the wonderful history of the «Storchen».
