Even though there is a more significant entity behind and one can spot specific standards and guidelines given by the Headquarters to ensure the quality and promise across the different sites, a familiar feeling is still present. A small, passionate team that runs the business locally.

The last time I visited Parco San Marco, it was the end of the season. The weather was getting colder, and the preparations for the winter season closure were becoming apparent. This time, when arriving at the beginning of June, the mood was the opposite. The season-opening had just taken place, the flowers blooming and the weather picking up the summer temperatures. The green of the trees shining bright, and the lake water getting warmer.

Approximately 11 years ago, Seraina and Dani, fresh out of the hospitality school, decided to open a hotel in Zermatt, Switzerland, in the land of Dani's family.

I have first visited the ART HOUSE last August, and eight months later, I had the chance to return for the last week of April 2021. As in any new opening, a period of readjustments, realignment and fine-tuning is needed. A few things have changed since my last visit, in my opinion, for the better.
