Почему людям нравится
- The two-Michelin-starred Ecco restaurant is a destination in itself
- Immaculate 'dipiù' spa and Ayurvedic wellness programs
- Lush, sprawling gardens that feel like a private park next to the golf course
Краткий обзор: A flawless luxury bubble that feels more like a Tuscan estate than a Swiss hotel, but be warned: the 'family-friendly' tag means the pool isn't always a silent sanctuary.
Подтверждено @alicia_katharina: I spent the most relaxing weekend at Hotel Giardino Ascona. The mix of Mediterranean gardens and Swiss mountains is surreal. I loved switching between the heated outdoor pool and those cozy indoor spa pods. It’s the perfect spot if you just want to disconnect and be pampered.
