At our five-star superior Castello del Sole resort in Ascona, the beauty of Ticino is almost within reach. Nestled in naturally formed, lush scenery, the hotel is a picture-postcard image of southern Switzerland. Large glass panes provide unhindered views, blurring the boundaries between indoors and outdoors. Surrounded by a 140-hectare estate in the Maggia delta, the Castello del Sole together with the Cantina alla Maggia winery and the Terreni alla Maggia agricultural estate embody The Living Circle’s philosophy of luxury in harmony with nature. This sense of luxury and privacy emanates from the hotel’s 41 junior suites and suites as well as 38 double and single rooms distributed over three buildings. The wide range of activities, whether for sport, relaxation or pleasure, make it tempting to stay here for a few days without leaving the resort.
