LA CASA DI CHICCO E GINNY Overview

You know what really caught me off guard about LA CASA DI CHICCO E GINNY? It’s one of those places that feels more like staying at your Italian relatives’ house than a typical 3-star hotel – and I mean that in the best possible way. The moment I walked through the door, there was this immediate warmth that you just don’t get at chain hotels. The owners (I’m guessing Chicco and Ginny themselves, though I never actually confirmed this) have this knack for making you feel genuinely welcome without being overly fussy about it.

The rooms are honestly quite charming in that unpretentious way that works so well in smaller Italian properties. Nothing fancy, mind you – we’re talking solid, comfortable accommodations with character rather than luxury amenities. The beds are actually really comfortable (I’m picky about mattresses), and the bathrooms are clean and functional, though don’t expect a rainfall shower or anything like that. What I loved most was how quiet it gets at night – you can actually sleep without earplugs, which is saying something for a lot of European city hotels. The décor has this lived-in feel that’s way more appealing than those sterile modern places. Little touches everywhere that show someone actually cares about the space.

Here’s the thing though – and this might matter depending on what kind of traveler you are – this isn’t the kind of place where you’ll find a 24-hour front desk or room service. It operates more like a well-run guesthouse, which means you’ll want to sort out your arrival time in advance and not expect to waltz in at 2 AM. But honestly? That’s part of its charm. The staff (well, probably family) who run it are incredibly helpful when they’re around, full of local recommendations that actually pan out. They pointed me toward this little trattoria about ten minutes away that I never would’ve found otherwise, and it ended up being one of the best meals of my trip. The 8.5 rating makes total sense to me – it’s the kind of place that does what it does really well without trying to be something it’s not. If you’re looking for that authentic, family-run Italian hospitality experience without breaking the bank, this place delivers exactly that.

Exploring Verona offers visitors an unforgettable journey through Italy’s city of love, from its ancient Roman ruins to its Renaissance palaces and world-renowned romantic literature connections.
