Timeless elegance between Vully and Lake Murten.
The Romantik® Hotel Château Salavaux is located in the heart of the Vully vineyards on the beautiful Lake Murten. It is a historic place where you can slow down, discover and enjoy. Seventeen individually designed rooms, a restaurant serving seasonal and regional cuisine, a wine cellar that tempts you to try its offerings, and a flexible event space for creative workshops or private celebrations – all under one roof, all with personality. This is where moments are created that will last a lifetime. Whether it's breakfast on the terrace, sundowners in the vineyard or a tasting in the private dining room.
Your hosts
Since May 2021, Neïla and Flavio Benedetto, together with their school friend Maurits, have been running Château Salavaux with passion, dedication and vision. After working in Hong Kong and gaining experience in renowned hotels and restaurants, they realised their dream of owning their own establishment here. The château itself has a long history: originally built in 1592 by Bernese patrician families, it served as a manor house, farm and later as a hotel over the centuries. Today, the young host couple combines the historic atmosphere of the estate with contemporary Swiss hospitality.

Around the hotel
Sustainability
Château Salavaux is located in the heart of Seeland, Switzerland's largest vegetable garden, and draws on nature's diversity every day. Most of the ingredients come from local producers with whom the hotel works closely – from organic tomatoes and seasonal vegetables to organic polenta and top-quality Limousin beef. This is complemented by the Château's own garden with herbs, edible flowers and fruit trees such as persimmons, pears, lemons and kumquats. The result is a cuisine that is authentic, sustainable and deeply rooted in the region – a culinary experience that combines responsibility, quality and regionality.
