THE HOSTS

Oliver von Rickenbach

I am not just a passionate host – I grew up in this hotel.

Even as a child, I experienced the unique atmosphere that arises when people feel welcome, understood, and well cared for. It fills me with pride and joy to now carry on the family tradition and lead it into the future.

This hotel is much more than just a workplace to me – it is my home. Here, I learned what true hospitality means: listening attentively, interacting sincerely, and creating meaningful impact through small gestures. These are the values I live by every day as a host.

I see it as my mission to provide each guest with a stay that will be remembered – full of warmth, reliability, and attention to detail.

Together with my team, I ensure that the hotel retains its own special character – a place where tradition and modern service blend seamlessly. It is an honor for me to pass on what I was fortunate to experience here myself: a feeling of home, far from everyday life.

My professional journey began in the kitchen. As a trained chef, I quickly discovered the magic of food – how it brings people together, sparks conversation, and creates pure enjoyment. Later, I pursued a path in social pedagogy, driven by a deep desire to support people with disabilities in finding their place in the working world. Today, I have the privilege of combining both passions – as a host in a restaurant that unites culinary excellence with social responsibility.

Our restaurant is more than just a place to eat. It is a space of connection, where meals are prepared with care, served with warmth, and where work is done with genuine joy. Our kitchen creates seasonal, fresh dishes that are crafted with love and presented with creativity – by a team that lives and breathes diversity. Every plate tells not only a culinary story, but also a deeply human one.

For me, people are at the heart of everything – both in the team and among our guests. It fills me with pride to see individuals with disabilities finding not just a task here, but a real opportunity. Our restaurant serves as a springboard into the mainstream job market – with personal guidance, patience, and sincere appreciation.

As a host, I am present every day with heart and soul. I welcome, support, and help create an atmosphere where people feel truly at ease – whether it's for a quick lunch or a relaxed, enjoyable dinner. Guests who come to us experience honest food, attentive service, and a vibrant example of what inclusion can taste like.
