Unique style, unforgettable activities, and fantastic locations - the hallmarks of a true boutique hotel experience," Buehler added.
The Alex, with its 84 rooms and celebrated restaurant creates the quintessential Swiss mountain village experience, combining comfort and warmth in a genuine, family-run atmosphere.
Located in the center of Zermatt - the gateway to the Matterhorn - one of the most famous and beautiful mountains in the world, the Alex is home for a full range of winter and summer mountain sports, including skiing, snowboarding and hiking, as well as fabulous European dining.
Ideal for families or the perfect romantic getaway, the Alex is as unique as the Matterhorn itself.
El Gordo Pousada and Restaurant is perfectly situated in the center of historic Trancoso, in Brazil's State of Bahia, along the Atlantic coast with exceptional white sandy beaches. Discovered in 1586 by Portuguese sailors and now considered the birthplace of the Lambada, Trancoso is steeped in history and culture.
El Gordo is an intimate boutique hotel, a haven of relaxation and the ideal getaway. With 11 lovingly styled rooms with pool, city or ocean views, and acclaimed restaurant specializing in Portuguese and international cuisine, El Gordo reflects Trancoso in its charm, simplicity and sophistication.
