We are saying goodbye to a long-standing member hotel that has been with us for many years. At the same time, we are delighted to welcome three new Garten Hotels - special places that enrich our network with fresh impetus, new gardens and warm hospitality.

Arrivederci Villa Novecento

Villa Novecento in Locarno

After 16 years of warm hospitality, a special chapter comes to an end: at the end of October, the Villa Novecento in Locarno ceased operations at the end of October and the future of the house is still written in the stars. What remains are many wonderful encounters, precious memories and the unique atmosphere of this extraordinary house. Our thanks go to Susan Engelhard Herdeg, her family and the entire team - we wish them all the best for the future.

A new place of peace: Klosterhotel Kreuz in Mariastein

Nestled in the tranquil landscape of Mariastein, the Klosterhotel Kreuz invites you to relax, be inspired and take some special time out. The historic building, which dates back to a pilgrims' hostel from the 17th century, now combines lovingly preserved history with modern comfort. The heart of the grounds is the impressive medicinal plant and herb garden with around 200 plant species, which has been cultivated and constantly developed since the 1990s. The Klosterhotel Kreuz is a place where nature, hospitality and centuries-old tradition come together in a tangible way.
