Fontana Garni | Hotel in Twann

Fontana Garni is a hotel in Twann, set next to Twann Train Station and the shipping pier at Lake Biel. From here, the day starts with practical access and an easy sense of place, whether you are heading out toward Lake Biel, planning a boat trip, or looking beyond town to the Jura Mountains. Family-run for more than 70 years, the property has a grounded, lived-in character that suits a stay built around movement and return. The Fontana Garni name has become part of the local rhythm, with Twann as the calm base for exploring the lakes and hills around it. Guest rooms offer a choice between lake-view stays with a balcony and quieter rooms facing the hillside, with some spaces built in 2010. Free Wi-Fi and free parking support the stay without complication, while the setting keeps the focus on the view, the air, and the pace of the day. Where available, a balcony extends the room outward, giving you a place to pause before or after time on the water or the trails. The result is a stay that feels straightforward, comfortable, and connected to its surroundings. Inside, the experience stays easy and useful, with heating, soundproof rooms, an elevator, and a shared lounge or TV area adding convenience to the visit. You will also find a coffee house on site, along with on-site parking and security features that help the property run smoothly. If you are arriving by train or ferry, the location keeps the logistics simple. In Twann, the walk from station to stay is short, and that closeness shapes the tone of the whole visit. It is a practical base with a clear view of the water, and a calm, memorable way to stay close to the lake and the routes beyond it.
