Horace Edouard Suite

The light and airy Horace Edouard Suite offers a splendid view of Lake Brienz. It is named after the Swiss-French architect Horace Edouard Davinet (* 23 February 1839 in Pont-d’Ain; † 30 June 1922 in Bern). After the death of his mother, Davinet spent much of his time living in Bern. In 1856, he began an apprenticeship with his brother-in-law Jakob Friedrich Studer. Alongside Studer, he was involved in the design of the Bundeshaus (the parliament building) and the Bernerhof luxury hotel in Bern. He also worked on the new hotels in the Bernese Oberland, the Grandhôtel Giessbach on the shores of Lake Brienz, and the Jungfraublick in Interlaken.
