The story
A private castle park, 25 rooms, and Lake Constance beyond
Schloss Wartegg rises above Lake Constance in Eastern Switzerland, surrounded by 130,000 square metres of private park established in 1860 — a sweep of mature trees, gardens, and castle grounds that envelops a wedding day with a kind of quietude that is becoming rarer everywhere. The castle's concert hall, seating 120, is the centrepiece of larger celebrations, while the banquet hall accommodates 77 for dinner in a setting of genuine historic character. The south terrace, shaded and tented for inclement weather, extends the outdoor season reliably.
The kitchen operates to an organic standard under chef Simon Romer, with seasonal produce prepared with care rather than with show. Exclusive use on a Saturday — from CHF 13,500, inclusive of all 25 hotel rooms with breakfast the following morning — gives a wedding party the run of the castle from mid-afternoon until the morning after, with the park and grounds theirs entirely for the duration. The result is a wedding that feels genuinely private, in the oldest and most meaningful sense of that word.
