The scent of spring is in the air

The first harbingers of spring are stretching out their leaves and shoots in the natural oases of the Garten Hotels.

Phenological spring has begun and the first heralds of spring are stretching out their leaves and shoots in the natural oases of the Garten Hotels. As early as February, some flowers use the direct light and warmth to add a splash of color to the landscape left barren by winter.

It's not just spring that brings new shoots, the Garten Hotels have also been growing since last spring. The Hotel FloraAlpina, on the Lucerne Riviera, where palm trees grow and vines flourish in the heart of Switzerland , where Lake Lucerne lies at your feet and the Rigi backs you up, welcomes guests to the lakeside and seminar hotel all year round. The open and unique location, the Mediterranean charm and the fantastic view of the lake and mountains make dreams come true.

We are delighted to welcome the historic jewel Hotel Palazzo Salis as our first Garden Hotel member in Bregaglia. It combines centuries-old architecture with a magnificent garden and offers guests an oasis of peace and inspiration at an altitude of 1090 meters. The picturesque garden, which is expertly maintained in full awareness of its historical significance, forms the perfect outdoor space for the baroque palazzo. The restaurant, which serves culinary delights in a historical setting, invites you to immerse yourself in the beauty of times gone by.

The Garten Hotels have put together various offers for you so that you can blossom with all your senses during the spring awakening.
