The Council
At Grand Hotel Les Trois Rois, Basel, Switzerland
Herzog & de Meuron-designed cigar lounge over two floors
The Council is the hotel’s 40-square-metre cigar lounge, not a restaurant. Across two levels it holds two cabinets, two walk-in humidors and a selection of more than 200 cigars from 35 brands and six countries, supported by cigar-and-drink pairings and spirits. Seating is explicitly limited. The hotel’s restaurant-specific terms do not name The Council, so no cancellation deadline should be inferred.
