A historic villa in Minusio

Formerly known as Pensione Belforte, the villa was part of the historic hospitality landscape of Minusio and Locarno, an area characterized by period villas and buildings linked to the development of local tourism.

The area is also close to the current war memorial, a site of historical significance that recalls the presence of medical facilities from the Risorgimento period, highlighting the importance of the neighborhood in the regional historical context.

Today: comfort and independence

Today, Villa Belforte has been adapted to modern hospitality while maintaining an essential and functional approach.
The rooms are well maintained, equipped with private bathrooms and designed for short or longer stays, both for leisure and business travel.

Access to the property is via self check-in, allowing guests to arrive independently, without time restrictions.
