EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming vintage postcard depicting a scenic stretch of the London-Geneva Pass Road, featuring a selection of recommended hotels for weary travelers in the late 1910s. The London-Geneva Pass Road, also known as the "Grand Tour of Europe," was a popular route for British tourists making their way from London to Geneva, Switzerland. This postcard highlights several hotels along the way, each carefully chosen for their quietness, good food, and reasonable prices. One such establishment is the Grand Hôtel Ripotot in Champagnole, France, which is still in operation to this day. The image shows a horse-drawn cart making its way along the winding road, with the Grand Hôtel prominently displayed in the background. The postcard also includes a detailed map and plan of the route, complete with star ratings for each recommended hotel. The map shows the border crossing between France and Switzerland, as well as other notable landmarks and towns along the way. The London-Geneva Pass Road was renowned for its stunning scenery, and this postcard captures the beauty and allure of the journey, inviting travelers to explore the wonders of France and Switzerland in a bygone era.
