The exclusive boutique hotel is just one aspect of this beautiful old establishment boasting a fabulous view all the way to Lake Constance. In the restaurant run by two MICHELIN-starred chefs, Andreas Caminada and Silvio Germann, the latter is behind the creative dishes. He uses the finest ingredients in elaborate but unfussy cuisine, pared down but imbued with real depth of flavour. A rather unassuming name such as "salmon – lettuce" belies a wealth of complexity: premium Lostallo salmon, delicately seasoned and flame-kissed, served with an emulsified buttermilk and lettuce broth, finished wi

You may be surprised to discover such a fine place in a business park, but you will immediately be transported to the Mediterranean. You can enjoy an aperitif in the relaxed lounge looking out over the pretty garden. Martin Benninger cooks up classic cuisine with a Mediterranean twist. Stripping a dish down to its essence does not mean sacrificing depth of flavour – take, for instance, the carpaccio of just-caught scampi paired with a delicately tangy champagne butter, shavings of raw mushroom and fresh chives. The interior is modern and elegant – in summer, with its glass front open, the cons
