Vražda v hotelu Excelsior

A very old-fashioned and gradual conversational detective story, in which Sequens managed to create an exceptional panopticon of characters from the luxury hotel Excelsior. The brilliant acting and a light perspective of Vacátek's advice make the peaceful investigation of the murder a fun, albeit slow spectacle. It’s too bad about the annoying title song, which almost made me faint by the end. But if you want to have fun with an intelligent detective story without unnecessary brutality and action, enjoy well-written characters and an enticing story, then visit the Excelsior Hotel, an island of peace and quiet...
