Hotel Vitznauerhof Venue

On the Alpine shore of Lake Lucerne, this neoclassical villa was built as a private retreat for a 19th-century industrialist and now welcomes couples to its columned salon and manicured lakeside gardens. Forty to one hundred twenty guests celebrate under coffered ceilings and original chandeliers while Swiss peaks mirror in the lake beyond. The architecture favors symmetry and proportion; the atmosphere is quietly prosperous without grandstanding. It suits couples who appreciate civilized formality.
