Reviews

• Batsheva from United States – 29 May 2024 (10/10)

  One of the most beautiful and spacious rooms I have ever stayed in – thoughtfully decorated with sumptuous fabrics and finishes. Every detail was thought of including a bowl of fresh fruit and chocolates, robes and slippers. Great location with balconies overlooking the Castelvecchio. And if that weren't enough, it is managed by the wonderful, warm Naima, who is at the ready to help with whatever you might need. This is a one-of-a-kind, absolutely exceptional lodging.
  
  What could be improved: Totally exceeded my expectations!

• Mike from United States – 25 February 2025 (10/10)

  When we entered the property we were impressed with the decor and the size of the rooms. It really was a storybook accomodation. The breakfast was ample. The location was very close to the main shopping area.
  
  What could be improved: As I recall, the reviewed mentioned gardens. In fact there is an attraction across the street that probably has gardens. It was more like an urban flat. That said, the city is very beautiful and walkable and felt safe. So maybe don't emphasize gardens since they really weren't a highlight in a way, of course they probably wouldn't be in bloom in February when we went.

• John from Australia – 7 November 2024 (10/10)

  Great location on the edge of all key attractions. Beautiful large room with exceptional view. Staff were amazing. I have stayed in lots of hotels and this hotel had one of the best breakfasts I have experienced, lots of choice, all very fresh produce and eggs perfectly cooked to order. I will absolutely go back and highly recommend this boutique hotel
  
  What could be improved: Nothing! Ok if you force me to pick something, the room door lock made a loud buzzing noise when you used the keycard swipe to open it 🤭

  Fabulous breakfast, great location.

• Robert from United Kingdom – 3 October 2024 (10/10)

  The breakfast was exceptional and the service was superb. The location is right on the edge of the Old Town with all that has to offer, and opposite the castle. Everything is within an easy walking distance. The Hotel secret weapon is Naima who was very welcoming and could not do enough for us.

  It was close to everything yet also tucked out of the crazy busy area. Just across the street from the castle and river walk and a few mins walk from anything you want to see
  
  What could be improved: Nothing. Everything was perfect
