To reflect the spirit of Tuscany, this hotel was built in 1986 with a focus on designs that would not distract guests from the blooming gardens surrounding them.


Toreflect the spirit of Tuscany, this hotel was built in 1986 with a focus ondesigns that would not distract guests from the blooming gardens surroundingthem. When it comes to the rooms and suites of Switzerland’s Giardiono Ascona,they are embellished with a Mediterranean design that combines differentelements such as earth-tone colors, old-wood parquet flooring, bright fabrics,without forgetting high-quality furniture. The inside of this hotel reflectsits exterior; visitors can find inviting rooms and terraces that are just asvivid and inviting as the outdoors surrounding them. To enhance these spaces, a renovation tookplace in 2009 by Rolf Balmer to uplift its terraces, outdoor sitting areas,pool, and water features for a heightened sense of peace and calm.
