Castello del Sole, Luxury hotel in Ascona, Switzerland
The Castello del Sole spans across 140 hectares of estate grounds, featuring 78 rooms and suites alongside private beach access on Lake Maggiore.
The structure originated in 1532 as a Franciscan monastery before its transformation into a refined accommodation establishment through the centuries.
The property maintains its agricultural heritage through Terreni alla Maggia estate, which produces rice, vegetables, and wine for the hotel restaurants.
The hotel operates seasonally from April to October, with rooms starting at 580 Swiss Francs, including breakfast and access to wellness facilities.
Guests can participate in risotto-making classes using rice grown on the estate and receive boat transfers from Locarno port upon arrival.
