In memory of the first international artist to sign a contract with Claude Nobs, Eurotel has the honour to annonce the creation of the Charles Lloyd room, in collaboration with the Swiss Hotel Archives and the Montreux Jazz Foundation 2. A vertitable museum, room 118 offers its gests a unique opportunity to immerse themselves in the atmosphere of the first hours of the 1967 Montreux Jazz Festival, In June 1967, Eurotel was inaugurated in Montreux. |
| The 60-meter-high skyscraper was a modern addition to the local hotel infrastructures. Build by the lakeside, Eurotel's triangular architectural design meant that all the rooms in the 16-storey building overlooked the magnificient panorama. |
| Curiously, one of the rooms in the establishement was never updated, Today it offers guests a veritable 1967 time warp. |
A twin bed installation folds away into a wall parition upholstered with red imitation leather, creating space on a floor that is covered by a blue flet Lichtenstein carpet. Chairs and armchairs, inspired by the Scandinavian design then in vogue, are grouped under a window and on either side of a back formica-tropped dropleaf table. Sounds and visuals complete the Charles Lloyd experience. |

Room 118 is equiped with a stereo system and an anthology of works by the famous American Jazz musician. A collection of photos taken during Charles Lloyd's performance at the Festival in 1967 decorate the walls. |
