Everything was perfect all round.

The sports program was good. However, it was more suited to "older" people. Our beds were a bit too soft. Everything was clean. The hotel staff were all very friendly. Food was also varied and tasty. Service, free water and tea etc. also very pleasant.

Returned well rested and relaxed.

I had a great time. The cuisine at the Hotel Ascona is really excellent, so fasting (alkaline fasting) wasn't difficult at all. The staff were very friendly and everything went well. The hotel was very flexible with regard to (special) requests.
