Hotel Giardino Ascona

Mediterranean-style garden hotel on the edge of Ascona

This hotel is part of the Daisy Curated Collection. Its information has been researched and verified, but Daisy has not yet personally stayed here. When she does, this page will be upgraded to a full Daisy Verified inspection.

Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
“A five-star built like a Mediterranean villa around gardens and ponds, a short walk from Ascona's old town. It suits couples who want a relaxed resort feel with a spa and pool. Dogs stay in the room, and the hotel keeps them out of the restaurants and off the sunbathing lawn.

Why it's in the collection

The hotel is on the Maggia delta side of Ascona, so the lakeshore paths towards the Lido and the river mouth are close by, and Piazza Motta's lakefront promenade is a short walk away.
