In harmony with nature: indulgence and luxurious diversity

A select group of first-class hotels and farms in Switzerland form "the Living Circle". The combination of six establishments with passionate hosts offer their guests a unique experience in two luxury hotels, two restaurants and two farms. Both the Hotel Castello del Sole in Ascona, in the Italian-speaking part of Switzerland, and the luxury hotel in Zurich offer private suites surrounded by nature and also centrally located.

First-class hotel service from own cultivation and a wide range of offers for the guests

Jörg Arnold, resort manager of the City and Lake Resort in Zurich, believes in the power of cooperation, which is why "the living circle" can also be considered a luminary in the hotel industry. The farms supply the restaurants and hotels with first-class food and produce all the raw materials themselves. The farms ensure that all the food served to guests is fresh from nature. With exquisite wine, fresh meat and fish from Lake Maggiore, hand-picked fruit, and even rice and other ingredients from the farm's own subtropical garden, each guest's every need is catered for, and each resource is created.

The uniqueness of the concept combines sustainability and luxury

By cooperating with each other, the individual establishments not only develop a unique selling point and a clear advantage over the competition, but also offer guests a wellness-oriented natural place of tranquility where they can recharge their batteries. "The living circle" works according to the sustainable concept of regional cultivation, avoids long transportation routes and, according to its own statement, contributes to the preservation of our nature through "luxury hotels fed by nature", so that it will be preserved for many generations to come.
