Eden Roc Hotel - A Small Paradise in Southern Switzerland


Ambience

There are many beautiful Swiss 5-star hotels, such as the Eden Roc Hotel that are located perfectly. Even exquisitely furnished hotels are plenty. And as you know, it is the norm that a luxury hotel has an excellent service. However, there remains the atmosphere, which is not measurable and which can be as enchanting in a simple pension as in a big palace.

The entrance at the Eden Roc Hotel in Ascona But in the Eden Roc, everything comes together just right. It is not an exaggeration when manager "Daniel J. Ziegler" (45) calls the hotel a small paradise in Southern Switzerland.

What contributes to that is certainly its unique location. In front of the generous garden of the hotel lies "Lago Maggiore" (a beautiful lake) in his whole splendor.



On a nice autumn day, you really think that you are in paradise with the sun warming your limbs and the wind mildly blowing around your head. It appears as if there is a feeling of weightlessness. It is like you are forgetting time after 10 minutes and the world after 20 minutes.

The Eden Roc Hotel was awarded several times as the best "holiday hotel" of Switzerland. Everyting just runs here with natural professionalism. Daniel Ziegler takes care with style, heart and taste for the fact that you are not only served excellent, but that above all you are feeling very comfortable. Reason enough for you to visit this small hotel for at least one weekend.

Location and Surroundings

Relaxing above Locarno and Lago Maggiore in Switzerland The resort is ideally directly on the lake (Lago Maggiore) in the town of Ascona in the Canton of Ticino. Ascona is one of the best and most exclusive tourist destinations in Switzerland.

It is more of a summer- than a winter resort. This area enjoys a Mediterranean climate with growing palms.



Activities, Entertainment and Attractions nearby

The Eden Roc Hotel provides also bicycles, childcare, water sports school for children and adults, hiking, tennis and a deluxe hotel boat with skipper. There are also no fewer than 18 scenic golf courses within easy reach of the hotel. In the quieter winter months, the hotel is serving high tea and has readings. There are two bars at the hotel as well as many bars and restaurants in the towns of Ascona and in Locarno.



Guest Rooms & Suites at the Hotel Eden Roc

The 50 rooms and 32 suites in the main building possess a colorful mixture of chic and glamour with a touch of luxurious purism.



Dining
The restaurant La Brezza at the Eden Roc Hotel In the main restaurant "Eden Roc", you will enjoy the classical French cuisine of Chef Cyrille Kamerzin.

The restaurant "La Brezza" with Chef Rolf Krapf has a creative and diversified Mediterranean cuisine.

At the lakeside paradise is the "La Casetta" which will enchant you with its southern charm. Specialties from the grill, pasta dishes, and a choice of delicious desserts are freshly prepared each day.



Services & Amenities

In a time in which the luxury hotels have reached the limit of the material competition, wins the human side more and more in meaning. A hotel is nothing else than a one big household, says the host "Daniel Ziegler". Therefore, I try to sensitize all employees on it. They should act and spoil guests in such a way as if they were in their own home.

What I find good

An unforgettable experience is the exclusively offered outdoor massages at sundown on the island of "Brissago".

What I do not find that good

At first sight, the Eden Roc Hotel looks like a luxury hospital. However, you will forget this disadvantage as soon as you enter the hall and see the breathtaking scenery of the lake, mountains, and the sky.
