# Hotel Eden Roc Ascona: 5-stars with a wilding by Rampazzi

> Hotel Eden Roc is a five-star luxury hotel on Lake Maggiore in Ascona, Switzerland, celebrated for its sensational lakeside setting, impeccable service, and bold, eclectic interiors by star designer Carlo Rampazzi.

## Destination
Ascona, Ticino, Switzerland — Via Albarelle 16, CH-6612 Ascona, a few minutes' walk from Ascona's shore promenade on Lake Maggiore.

## Why visit
Ranked consistently as Switzerland's best vacation hotel, Eden Roc combines a lush Mediterranean garden with direct lake access, vibrant Rampazzi-designed interiors mixing elegance with extravagant color and kitsch, four restaurants totalling 46 Gault Millau points, and a 2,000 m² spa and pool complex.

## What to see
- **Carlo Rampazzi interiors** — Bold colors, wild material mixes, and signature green accents run throughout rooms, suites, and restaurants.
- **Mediterranean garden and private beach** — Lush lakeside garden with sculptures, a panoramic boat dock, and the hotel's own yacht harbor.
- **La Casetta** — A romantic lake cottage in the garden used for private dinners and, from May to September, as a fourth restaurant.
- **Lake Maggiore views** — Rooms face directly onto the lake; the surrounding Alpine and lake panorama is especially striking at sunset.

## What to do
- **Dining across four restaurants** — Choose from Eden Roc (15 GM points), La Brezza (17 GM points), Ristorante Marina (14 GM points), and seasonal La Casetta.
- **Spa and wellness** — 2,000 m² wellness area with spa, pool, and a Kneipp pool.
- **Apéro at the bar** — Pre-dinner drinks and small bites at the hotel bar — the tartare comes specifically recommended.

## Good to know
Room rates range from CHF 388 to CHF 1,500 per night depending on season and category. The hotel is a member of Leading Hotels of the World and Swiss Deluxe Hotels.
