Wolfram Merkert is a host with heart and soul. His journey did not begin in the executive office, but at the stove – shaped by his childhood in a family of restaurateurs
in Baden. It was clear early on that the world of the hotel industry was his home. <\/p>\n\n
After training as a chef and working in renowned establishments, he first came to Giardino Ascona in 1988 – back then as sous chef at the Ristorante
“Aphrodite”. Today, as General Manager, he stands for the highest level of hospitality, consistency and continuous development – always linked to
a hotel that he knows inside out, from the kitchen to reception. <\/p>\n\n
