submitted 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

Today, the Franco-Swiss border passes through the kitchen, dining room, hallway and several rooms of the Hotel Arbez:

  • The dining room is divided by the boundary.
  • The bar is entirely located in France, though the boundary passes just outside its front door.
  • The bed in the honeymoon suite is bisected by the border, with half in France and half in Switzerland.
  • The main hall and stairway are bisected by the border. The lower half of the stairs lie in France, the upper half, beginning on the seventh step is in Switzerland;
  • Another room has its bathroom in France, while the rest of the room is in Switzerland.
  • The annex to the hotel is located entirely in Switzerland.

Today, the Hotel Arbez is operated by the French company SARL Arbez Franco Suisse, which pays taxes equally to both countries.
