36 TICINO.CH/BIGATT “We support the local area and circular economy: everyone wants an experience that is as local as possible.”
SAVOUR — PARADISO 37 WHEN HOSPITALITY AND INCLUSIVITY BECOME ONE Find yourself in an oasis of peace Staff wellbeing and a warm welcome for guests are at the very heart of the experience offered by the Bigatt Hotel & Restaurant in Lugano-Paradiso. The facility is run by Cooperativa Area (operating in the field of social inclusion since 1980), a pioneer on Ticino’s hotel scene, which strives to combine entrepreneurship with social enterprise. Lorenzo Steiger, the dynamic operations director, has no doubts. The future of tourism will be increasingly inclusive and sustainable. PARADISO “Wonder” is the adjective that best describes the feeling visitors experience when arriving at the Bigatt. Just a short distance from Lugano, on the green slopes of Monte San Salvatore, this fully restored former 18 th -century farmhouse offers breathtaking views over Lake Lugano. It is no coincidence that the terrace is a favourite spot for guests and external customers alike. Extensive grounds with vineyards, olive groves and luxuriant organic, natural and synergic vegetable gardens surround the hotel. The sense of amazement also continues inside: rooms with frescoed ceilings, 24 bedrooms (each one different from the next), a courtyard with a consecrated chapel and, a little further on, a small room converted into a local produce shop that houses an ancient press. At the Bigatt there is a relaxed atmosphere, the staff are smiling and friendly, and work is done but not rushed, because the hotel’s philosophy is to focus on the wellbeing of its employees, as well as that of its guests, of course.
