Enjoy the “dolce vita” amid chestnut trees and UNESCO-listed castles

Directly behind the youth hostel in the imposing Villa Montebello in Bellinzona rises the Castello di Montebello, a medieval castle and UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The historic Villa Montebello can be found in a quiet yet central location. Nestled beneath the historic walls in the heart of Ticino, Switzerland’s sunniest corner, the hostel makes the perfect base to enjoy the “dolce vita!” It is located close to the historic town centre, far away from noise and far away from your daily routine. After all, there’s nothing sweeter than escaping the cares of daily life. And there are few better places to do just that than Bellinzona!
