Castello Rosso dates back to
the XVth century; once belonged to Conti Crotti. It is a wonderful
example of castle architecture. It is a place rich in history with a
fascinating landscape characterized by an ideal micro climate all year
round. Today it has been turned into a lovely and exclusive hotel with
an intentionally limited capacity. The castle includes a well equipped
Beauty and Health center.
According to well founded sources, Michele Crotti, from Savigliano, had
this mansion built on the ruins of the Costanzia family castle,
completing the works 1625. Some parts of the castle still have frescos
painted by Maestro d’Elva at the end of the XVth century. They portray
the Madonna with the infant Jesus, Mary Magdalene and St. Catherine. This
proves that the Crottis spared no expense when it came to adorning their
palace. The environment is cozy and elegant. There are only 17 rooms,
including 3 luxurious suites, and all are furnished to the highest taste.
Another strong point of this hotel is the restaurant, which serves
typical local dishes, exalting the tasty flavors of the past aiming for
a wholesome and genuine cuisine, matched with the best wines of the
region.Castello Rosso has the smallest "Beauty Farm" in Europe. The
Centre specializes in the search of psycophysics wellbeing through
programs that help the understanding of the "messages" from the body and
mind. |
