Tips about the Restaurant Paradies

PARADIES: The name is also the programme. We extend a warm welcome in Findeln, where you can experience the refined and fresh cuisine of Gaston Zeiter along with one of the most beautiful views of the Matterhorn. You will certainly love it just as much as the Gault Millau Guide did when it awarded the restaurant 13 points.
