Osteria Ticino by Ketty and Tommy is a historic, family run hotel and restaurant in Ascona in the Swiss canton of Ticino, set on Via Muraccio in a quiet residential area just a five minute walk from the old town and the Lake Maggiore promenade. The traditional osteria building dates back to 1890 and combines rustic charm with renovated interiors, a leafy garden and a relaxed, convivial atmosphere for guests.
The hotel offers around 18 recently refurbished rooms with parquet floors, balcony or terrace, LCD TV, minibar, free WiFi and private bathroom, with options suitable for solo travellers, couples and families. A generous breakfast buffet is served in the garden Eden terrace in summer, while the restaurant focuses on authentic Italian and Ticinese cuisine, including the house speciality risotto flambe, and a well curated selection of regional wines.
For active visitors and small sports groups, the property provides an on site outdoor tennis court and a children’s play area in the garden, and sits close to the lakeside paths, beaches and the 18 hole Patriziale golf course of Ascona, allowing guests to combine light training or recreational sport with the cultural and gastronomic offerings of the region.
