Grand Hotel Villa Castagnola

The entire property was beautiful. The lakeside clubhouse was incredible - wonderful view, service, and amenities. The service was excellent. Housekeeping came twice a day. The breakfast was fabulous. We cannot say enough about this beautiful property.

we loved their classy feel of this Grand Hotel and the view from our balcony. the staff are super attentive from the first moment on arrival to leaving the hotel. The private lido on the water front is worth a visit and the hotel staff offered for us to use it after check out, which was amazing - giving Read more[SPLIT]Read lessus more relaxation time before our next destination. The complimentary drinks in Le Bar was a great touch. The spa is fantastic as it was empty in the morning and felt like a private spa!

Everything was fantastic. Service was top notch and every room has a good view. Spa was excellent and breakfast also very good. We had a meal at the michelin star restaurant and the service there could have been better (we were put on a poor table and told they were fully booked but the restaurant stayed Read more[SPLIT]Read lesshalf empty). Highlight was the private Lido it's absolutely wonderful. The food in general (even for simple plates) is very expensive but all nicely prepared.
