The Esplanade Hotel Resort & Spa, majestic and elegant, situated above Minusio, a sun-kissed peaceful residential area of Locarno, in lush, exotic grounds. Just 300 m from Lago Maggiore, in Switzerland.
It is a very elegant location, which though easily reached, is away from the hustle and bustle of Locarno, Ascona and Lugano. The wellness hotel Esplanade, amongst the most highly regarded in Ticino, provides business people and holidaymakers with placid seclusion in an evocative atmosphere.
Italian glamour and Swiss professionalism against a backdrop of rare beauty. The 67 rooms and junior suites, boasting a fine range of amenities and warm parquet flooring, make our guests feel welcome and offer magnificent views: the lovely exotic palm grove and, from the balconies overlooking the lake, the splendid setting of Ticino’s mountains.
The Wellness & Beauty centre, "Le Palme", covers an area of over 1,600 and offers a Finnish sauna, a Turkish bath, a calidarium, whirlpool baths, a fitness centre and a gym. The SPA’s philosophy finds expression in a fine blend of cosmetics, massages, bathing and fitness. Wellness Le Palme free for the guests.
Exploring new gourmet experiences with traditional Mediterranean and Ticino cuisine as well as forays into gastronomic delights from other countries; the watchwords are abundance and variety.
Culinary pleasure and top class wines and service to an exceedingly high standard in an exclusive ambiance.
At the Esplanade, the 7 conference and banquet rooms enjoy natural light and breathtaking views. They can seat up to 140 people.
