The Garni Elena is a cosy, family-run hotel in a quiet location outside the village centre of Losone, only 5 minutes walking distance from the 18-hole golf course Gerre. Free WiFi is available in the public areas. Surrounded by a Mediterranean garden with a heated swimming pool (May to September) and a sunbathing area, the Garni Elena hotel offers delightfully renovated rooms, partly featuring a covered terrace. The breakfast buffet is served from 08:00 to 10:00. Throughout the day, guests can have their meals at a partner hotel in Ascona. The resort of Ascona is reachable within a 5-minute drive and is the ideal starting point for boat trips on Lake Maggiore and visiting the Isole di Brissago botanical gardens and the Borromean Islands. Guests benefit from a 20% discount at the Gerre Losone Golf Club. Hiking is possible on the valleys near Losone, all reachable by car and by public transport. Free open-air parking spaces are available on the hotel grounds.
