A hotel with an afternoon worth keeping

At Waldhaus Sils on Saturday 26 September, the diary offers a precise reason to stay in for part of the afternoon. Fabien Jégoudez presents his documentary about Nietzsche's early Alpine journeys at 14:00, with an introduction and questions afterwards. The film is in French with English subtitles; the listed session ends at 15:45 and admission is free.

For a reader choosing a hotel around culture, this is a more useful distinction than an adjective attached to a suite. It makes the house a base with something to contribute to the day. The wider calendar continues into the week, including an Elke Heidenreich reading on 28 September at 21:00. The hotel's posted summer season runs through 25 October.

Waldhaus appeared in our first issue. It returns for this dated programme, not because the accommodation has newly opened or changed. Choose it for the appeal of a hosted stay organised partly around what is happening in the building. Choose the apartment format elsewhere in this edition if keeping meals and evenings entirely to yourself matters more.

The film is a public event; a room booking is a separate decision. Ask the hotel about the room category and aspect before reserving.
