In the Garten Hotels of Switzerland you will find a variety of refreshment options that offer something for every taste.
To get into the vacation mood, you often don't have to take any big leaps. A dip in the refreshing natural pool at the Grandhotel Giessbach or a somersault into the cool waters of Lake Thun can be enough. Especially in the hot summer months, we are drawn to various bodies of water to cool off, refresh and relax. Switzerland 's Garten Hotels have plenty to offer in this respect too. Dive in and experience pure refreshment in the most beautiful corners of Switzerland.
Parkhotel Gunten
It is unique, the small, fine spa in the boathouse with direct access to Lake Thun and the whirlpool on the sun deck. The Finnish sauna delights with its view out over the water, and the panorama that opens up while you relax in the bubbling water of the whirlpool is priceless.
Parkhotel Brenscino Brissago
Cool off on hot days in the outdoor pool with breathtaking views of the lake - or take a dip in the adjacent Lake Maggiore. The pool area is surrounded by several quiet zones in the park. A sun lounger right by the pool or in a quiet, green oasis a little higher up? The choice is yours.
Hotel Schloss Ragaz
In the middle of the secluded castle park, the relaxation oasis with outdoor pool and spacious wellness area beckons. Relaxing on a sun lounger by the pool or in a hammock under shady trees is a great way to beat the heat and the cool water is so close.
Villa Novecento
The charming villa, surrounded by a wild and romantic garden, offers plenty of shady spots to cool off in the fresh air. The secluded pergola, the fragrant rose pavilion or the gnarled olive tree are perfect for relaxing and doing nothing. Just a 10-minute walk away, the generous Lake Maggiore ripples and invites you to wade in.
Grandhotel Giessbach
The Grandhotel Giessbach offers an impressive natural swimming pool that is perfectly integrated into the surrounding landscape. Here you can swim surrounded by greenery and enjoy the peace and quiet. Without the use of chemical substances such as chlorine. The particularly soft water is purified naturally by plants and layers of gravel at the edge of the pool.
Berghotel Schatzalp
If you don't want to cool off in or by the water, the Berghotel Schatzalp at 1865 m above sea level is just the place for you. A refreshing, cooling mountain breeze is always blowing here, enriched with the countless scents from the Botanical Alpine Garden with its almost 5,000 different plant species and varieties from all the mountains of the world.
Schloss Wartegg
After a 5-minute walk from Schloss Wartegg , you can take a dip in the refreshing Lake Constance. The family-friendly Hörnlibuck bathing facility is equipped with changing rooms and showers. The small playground, the raft and the long footbridge that leads across the bay directly into the water make the charming bathing bay even more attractive for young and old.
Villa Carona
The matt concrete pool is elegantly embedded in the lush gardens and its crystal-clear water is reminiscent of a glistening mountain lake in Ticino. The integrated counter-current system allows you to swim what feels like many laps in the pool. Relax at the edge of the pool and cool off in the idyllic atmosphere of the relaxation garden.
Hotel Bon Rivage
Guests can reach the shores of Lake Geneva directly through the garden gate in the magnificent garden, which is a paradise of flowers, trees and vegetables. The promenade and the beach invite you to swim, relax and stroll. Guests are spoiled for choice: cooling off in the lake, shady spots in the garden or refreshment on the outdoor terrace with a picturesque view of the lake. One thing at a time is best.

Hotel Promenade
A 10-minute walk from the Hotel Promenade takes you to the banks of the Rhine in no time at all. Here you can dip your feet in the cool river, listen to the gentle sound of the water, marvel at the historic facades of Schaffhausen on a leisurely boat trip on the Rhine or visit the spectacular Rhine Falls.
Hotel Arenenberg
From the most beautiful castle on Untersee, you can take an entertaining walk through the shady, diverse Arenenberg gardens down to the lakeside path and the Salenstein lido. On the viewing terrace in front of the castle, which is considered one of the most romantic places on Lake Constance, you can enjoy a refreshing drink and let your gaze wander.
FloraAlpina
At the Garten Hotel FloraAlpina on Lake Lucerne, summer beckons with two refreshing options: From the pool, the view sweeps across the lake, while the Bürgenstock rises out of the water like a Thai island rock landscape. Or you can walk a few steps to the shore and enjoy cooling off directly in Lake Lucerne.
