A miniature capital famous for its light taxation, elegant boutiques and princely castle overlooking the old town — one of Europe's most unusual shopping getaways.
Vaduz, the capital of Liechtenstein, has a reputation all its own: a micro-state known for its favourable taxation, tucked between the Alps and the Rhine. The town can be explored in a single day, yet its pedestrian centre packs in independent boutiques, art galleries, the Kunstmuseum and the postage-stamp museum, all watched over by the princely castle on the hill above. Staying here means enjoying a human-scale, safe and refined capital just minutes from Zurich and Bregenz. The hotels selected here all sit in the heart of Vaduz, within walking distance of the shops, restaurants and the tourist office where you can stamp your passport as a souvenir. A short, elegant city break unlike anything else in Europe.
