My family and I spent a week at Castello del Sole in July and had a wonderful time. The hotel itself is stunning, in a beautiful garden setting located on the side of the lake. The main restaurant permits al fresco dining under the trees while the kids play on the lawn - it could not have been better! We... More

All the superlatives listed by other reviewers are accurate and justified leaving very little worthwhile to add, perhaps with one exception. There are watches and there are Swiss Chronometers.They basically do the same job but a real connoisseur appreciates and knows the difference. In the same way there are mere hotels and establishments like Castello del Sole. If you are... More

We have stayed at Castello del Sole many times - it is our favorite stop over in southern Switzerland. The last time we were there was in June when the weather in Zurich was cold and rainy, we simply drove down and spent the weekend there. The hotel is rather small but offers great services. It has an amazing garden... More

There are good hotels, ordinary ones, bad hotels, and a few you remember fondly and look forward to the opportunity of staying there again. Castello Del Sole is one of those in the latter category. Really well appointed, and the surroundings out of this wolrd (garden, lake, mountain view etc....). We (wife and two children) were there end of April... More

Personal touch and first-class service. My wife and I spent 2 nights there during our honey moon trip. The manager of the hotel had placed candles in our room, just when we entered after dinner, which means great organization with the only purpose to please customers. Great land on the Lago Maggiore, take a walk in the grass and you... More
