Review:
Villa Castagnola was once the winter home of Russian nobility. In 1885 it was converted into a grand hotel. The present owners purchased it more that 35 years ago. It is a 5 star resort on the shore of Lake Lugano, with subtropical gardens and a private beach. The church of San Pietro delle Erbette is located in the grounds making the hotel the ideal venue for weddings. There are three restaurants in Villa Castagnola. Arté al Lago is situated on the waterfront. It is the only Michelin starred restaurant in Lugano. Artwork from around the world is displayed there and twice a year an exhibition is held.
