Great location, great breakfast, large rooms with nice historic decor.

Pros: The hotel is fantastic! It has a lot of amenities (spa, pool) and a lot of art and history in the halls. The rooms are big and clean. Location is great: easy access to the historic center, but with easy access by car. Breakfast is well served and staff is nice.

Exceptional stay and this exquisite hotel with so much history

Pros: Friendly and helpful staff who provided local knowledge and advice for transport and day activities. The hotel is incredibly clean, comfortable and reasonably priced. Good location and a wonderful garden across the road to wander and relax by the outdoor pool. There is a wide range of sweet and savoury options for breakfast. The breakfast room is bright with amazing formal crockery and cutlery. Service was outstanding and the best coffee I had in Italy! Loved the room full of photos and the history of the hotel and family. There is an indoor pool, sauna and steam room available in the late afternoon. It was wonderful to come back to the hotel and relax. The restaurant menu is great with a good selection of affordable entrees, main meals and desserts. I recommend this hotel to all and look forward to staying again.
