I'm writing a novel, set partly in London and Zurich during 1940. The protagonist is vacationing in a 1 or 2 star hotel in Zurich and needs to make and receive phone calls to London and also to Bern, Switzerland.
How would he be able to make and receive telephone calls coming from the above two cities in that year? Could he use the hotel phone? Or would he have to visit Zurich's central post office to call from there?
