Nice hotel in a quiet village at the top of the hill. We arrived late and left early the next day. The staff was kind, though we sensed some slightly unusual vibes. The breakfast, however, was a bit underwhelming.

Ein herziges kleines Hotel in den Bergen vor Lugano :) Die kurvige Strecke bergauf ist mit dem Motorrad sicher auch spannend!

Das unvergessliche Herbstgefühl im Malcantone

Für uns stimmte alles! Wir konnten das Zimmer vor der "Check-in" Zeit beziehen. Das Essen im Restaurant wie auch das Frühstück war 1A. Wir werden das "Il Castano" im Herbst vermutlich wieder buchen, sofern alles wie bis anhin weiterhin bestehen würde.
