A family vacation offers a delightful escape from the everyday routine. Especially at Villa Castagnola, with its expansive park and a children’s play area designed to make little ones feel right at home. A safe and vibrant space where they can play and be entertained in complete peace of mind.
Intimate and evocative, filled with both ancient tomes and modern works, the library offers a serene refuge. A place to pause, read, and let your imagination wander, surrounded by exquisite oriental prints.
The park of Villa Castagnola hides a charming secret: the Chiesetta delle Erbette (Oratory of San Pietro delle Erbette), an intimate consecrated chapel, perfect for baptisms, weddings, and other religious ceremonies in a setting of rare beauty and charm.
Dating back to the fifteenth century and expanded in the following one, the oratory preserves invaluable frescoes and historical details connected to the Schnyder von Wartensee family, who served as guardians of the Villa for nearly a century. A place where spirituality, history and beauty meet in natural harmony.
For your convenience, private shuttles to and from major airports and key destinations can be arranged upon request (fee applies). Contact us to receive further information.

We’re delighted to welcome your dog for an additional CHF 50 per night. To ensure a pleasant stay for all our guests, we kindly ask that dogs not be brought into the restaurants, main terrace, SPA, pool, or Lido Club. In the park, we ask that pets be kept on a leash and enjoy the wooden platform, leaving the lawn free for other guests. Please remember that dogs should not be left unattended in the room, and should be taken outside during cleaning. Please display the gold lanyard provided at check-in on your door to let our staff know your dog is in the room. Need someone to watch your dog? Our reception team will gladly help so your furry friend is in good hands.
