Exotic Charm

Parkhotel Brenscino Brissago

Mediterranean flair is guaranteed in Ticino, and even more so in the Brenscino Brissago park. Located on the shores of Lake Maggiore, the hotel, with its rich treasure of exotic vegetation, creates a small universe for southern longings.

A feast for the eyes: All 83 rooms at Parkhotel Brenscino Brissago feature a balcony with expansive lake views. But there's also plenty to discover right outside the hotel, thanks to its botanical park.

It offers not just quantity – spanning 38,000 square meters – but above all, quality. From passion flowers and ginkgos to kiwi and grapefruit trees, the park is a treasure trove of exotic plants. A guided tour with the head gardener helps you keep track of it all.

The yoga path offers the perfect place to relax amidst this enchanting microcosm. For a refreshing cool-down on hot days, there's the outdoor pool – or simply a dip in the adjacent Lake Maggiore.
