'Great Escapes Alps. The Hotel Book'

Europe’s biggest and greatest mountain range, The Alps were formed millions of years ago and have long since become a source of fascination. From mountain slopes and traditional meadows to icy glaciers and majestic summits, Angelika Taschen explores it all in this Taschen published volume that presents photography of both the Alpine range and its magical accommodation accompanied by short texts and useful details on prices and how to get there. Covering a variety of accommodation for Alpinists — including historic inns, guesthouses, monasteries, mountain huts, chalets, palazzi and design hotels — the book's geographic scope covers noteworthy hotels in the Alpine nations of Germany, Austria, Switzerland, France and Italy.
