It is led by chef Ernesto Tonetto. Every day he introduces something new, letting himself be inspired by the products offered by the territory surrounding the hotel (the woods and pastures of the Valsessera, the Alpine area and the Po Valley) with forays into the Ligurian Apennines. A rich environment, an endless source of inspiration for his recipes.

The restaurant hall is dominated by a large fireplace that warms the atmosphere of lunches and dinners with its fire. The furnishings are still those designed by Luigi Vietti, the architect famous for his work on the Costa Smeralda and Cortina, who designed the hotel in 1963, conceived according to the canons of Alpine tradition and harmony with the environment. Also not to be forgotten is the cosy bistro area, the ideal place for a quick but tasty lunch break.
