Sanremo

Longing for a short break? Just six hours’ drive from Zurich lies Sanremo, a picturesque seaside resort on Italy’s Ligurian coast. DISPLAY visited the Royal Hotel Sanremo.

Family-owned for more than 150 years

Since 1872, the 5-star Royal Hotel Sanremo has combined historic charm with modern luxury. Set in a 16,000 m² tropical garden, the hotel is just a five-minute walk from Sanremo’s old town – the perfect starting point for discovering the city’s cultural treasures and winding lanes. It is valued by the community for its gay-friendly atmosphere.

The hotel offers its guests a modern spa. After an eventful day, you can relax here with a massage or enjoy the various wellness treatments. A highlight is the outdoor pool, surrounded by a large sun terrace that invites you to sunbathe and linger.

Culinary highlight: the olive oil menu

A particular highlight is the olive oil menu, prepared with the fine oil of the famous Taggiasca olive. This olive is known for its mild, fruity oil, harvested by hand in the traditional way to guarantee the highest quality.

During the famous music festival, Sanremo is of course a hotspot for the community. But it’s a rewarding destination all year round.
