01 · In a sentence

Relais & Spa Castello di Casiglio in Erba, open JulyDecember.

Located in Erba, Lombardy, this 4-star castle hotel handles logistics efficiently with on-site accommodations for 80+ guests, eliminating complex transportation coordination.

The venue combines a historic 12th-century castle with modern spa facilities, offering ceremony spaces in period rooms and reception areas across multiple floors.

Guest rooms and suites mean your wedding party can stay under one roof from rehearsal through departure.

I stayed for one night in September in one of their classic rooms in Villa Elena. We paid more than 300 euros per night to discover that the only window of the room is a roof window with very little natural light. The shower smelled very moldy after we turned it on and A/C did not work - despite calling 4-5 times and waiting "in line" on the phone, we did not manage to reach reception from the hotel phone. The A/C was then turned on from the reception when we stopped by - apparently their system blocked it. We wanted to eat dinner outside - it was a lovely late summer night but we were told the outdoor is closed. Same for breakfast next morning; despite many people spending time outside already they did not feel like setting up the area for breakfast (it was later open for lunch). The big upside is the spa area, very modern and lovely staff. We also appreciated the food at the restaurant. Would recommend it for the spa, but better come here with a day pass.
