CastelBrando

I got to spend Christmas in the Castle as part of a tour I was doing. Just driving up to the Castle was thrilling, as it sits high up and so can be seen for quite a distance. You get to the Castle by a funicular, and then a pretty steep walk to a very grand entrance. My mobility is not great but I managed ok. My room was gorgeous, very much in keeping with the idea of being in a castle. The food was sensational (and plentiful) and the staff were very friendly and helpful. It was the prefect mix of glamour and comfort. A very memorable and special Christmas!

What a grand place unlike anything else. The staff is wonderful and kind. So much to see and do. Giorgia behind the bar in the lobby was “the best”. I am grateful. A must see place if you’re in Italy. Vanilla gelato with hot raspberries was to die for.

The castle is very impressive-looking and the staff helpful, but overall a stay here is a bit on the depressing side, with even the nicest rooms being a big drab and underlit. The restaurant staff is friendly and the food generous and adequate, but one normally has to go outside to get to the restaurant, even in the rain. Also one has to go outside to get to the garage and to up a long staircase without railings to get to the breakfast room. It turns out that there are special ways to get to the restaurant, garage and breakfast room without the above inconveniences, which the helpful staff member at the reception desk took time to show us and which helped greatly. So, if this is a problem for you, be sure to ask how to do this. Finally, the breakfast is unexciting.

My husband and I spent the most amazing eight days at CastelBrando. We were joined for the last five days by four friends, because we really wanted them to experience with us this beautiful real castle, where you can go through history, while enjoying all the confort the most modern hotels would offer. Everything is beyond perfect at CastelBrando, the building, the rooms, breakfast and dinner spaces, service and food... Nevertheless, what makes it even more special, if this is at all possible, is the staff. Everybody is friendly, efficient, ready to help. What I really need to say is a huge thank you to the team at the Front Office Department. Each one of them found a way to offer us this extraordinary experience: they helped us get three beautiful rooms, adding two of them at my last minute request, they solved our transfer needs, for our visits they recommended us the marvellous Pierina, they even managed to find our prosecco glasses we had lost (too happy with our Prosecco tour experience to take care of them)... Thank you, everybody, and Congratulation!

Marvelous hotel in a 2000-year old property, with excellent food and fantastic surroundings. We would definitely recommend for couples, business gatherings and wedding events. Plenty to do in the area as well, from Prosecco tours to nature walks and art & history trips

My wife and I, both from the US, live in Spain and chose CastelBrando as the venue for our rehearsal dinner and wedding in late September. To say it was amazing is an understatement. Almost every one of our guests said it was the most beautiful wedding they’ve ever been to, and definitely the most fun! Brunella was extremely responsive and organized throughout the several months that we planned the wedding. The entire staff at CastelBrando could not be nicer. Honestly, there is not a single thing that I would change about our wedding there. The food is spectacular, the service is top notch, the rooms are beautiful, the view is stunning, and the prices are very reasonable. I would recommend CastelBrando as a wedding venue to anyone. My wife and I will definitely return many times over the years to celebrate future anniversaries.
